very interesting, smoking dry sift is a real treat, i did not smoked some often. What is the yield when making dry sifted hashish guys ? i know it depends of the strains quality used, glands size, quality of the buds grown but could you tell an idea of the % of resin sifted per quantity of quality buds please ? (not 1% Sam the skunkman secret technique) for water hash i read 10%, do you think 10% is possible with a sativa dominant strain dry sifted ? (i mean not a hashish bred strain like afghan strain for example.

this is something I also would like to know.
I can get the same as if making bubble Hash.
If the resins there I can catch it.
With dry sift its best to sift a little at a time,
So it's hard to put yields into perspective.
Much better than 1% though.
I'm working in whole plant hash making.
Kush strains drop almost there full load 1st shake.
Sativa and some hybrids hold onto their resin more.
This shows that even small amounts of very poor trim can yield nice hash.

Very nice. Thanks for the pictures 
What kind of screen?
What kind of screen?
I use a 61 and 86 ... using the DSW style thats all i really need and im smoking full melt clear dome in minutes .... if i want to clean up another step i use the 125 lpi screen. What i find myself doing most these days ... is just drop a little through the 61 screen and then squish it through a 25 micron filter bag for some great very clean rosin. I think i enjoy smoking the rosin more then the fmcd
I have to vouch for the Trim Bin 150 Micron steel mesh screen

The best size meshes to use really depends on the technique, the starting material and what your aim is.
A good mesh for single screen sifting would be 110 ~ 125 lines per inch Mesh, 150 ~ 125 micron. There are lots of different methods used for dry sifting and each one uses different size meshes, spend some time reading the many dry sifting threads and posts in the Hashish forum and you will be more knowledgeable for it!

GW recommends stainless for the 150 micron. Can't say personally, I'm still fucking around with a 150u "SpeedBall" screen printer. Poor company name choice..
Made 70-80 percent par melt last night doing the drop method.
I highly recommend reading GW's write up on SkunkPharm, he details what type of screen material to buy, DIY frames, conversions, etc.
Mack, I take it you prefer static to cleaning over 25u or the like?
Static cleaning is ok but takes time.
Ive been brainstorming a better static meathod,
but still in development...
An yeah i use a 70 micron to clean on.
What i want is good scope with a measuring device.
So i can scope my trics and measure them to see what screens to use.
and to check your material and work.
Someone write the computer program for instant, click on tric mesurements
That with a scope plugged into a computer would be sweet.

I believe the digital microscope GW recommends comes with software that does just that. It was my understanding it helps to pick screens/estimate yield by micron.
Are you a mum type? I love spitballing. See how D420k picked up heads on one side and contam on the other? I noticed Bubbleman overlooked it, he was cleaning the whole case into one pile.
Does this not possibly indicate a differentation between positive and negative static charges? There are definitely better ways to produce a static charge than parch. I should be getting a load of farmer sift to refine and will experiment.

Id bet there ten times as many folks out there right now kiefing out there small batch trim through those speedball printing screens than there are people using purpose built screens, theyre great for kiefing before rosin.
Nice. It does make decent sift, especially with the drop/no carding technique. Would be neat to get other micron in that frame size. I didn't call but the website gave the impression (to me) that there was only the 150u/110 or 100 mesh.
Found someone in Van for purpose built though heh. Just tapped right now after building a HMK rosin press, among other shiney baubles eating my bank account to the quick.
Fuck Home Depot and their cheapass garbage. Random daily angry moment.

I use the honey bee tray for first trim.Then I use some of My 20 gal Bubble Bags tightened over a bucket then when done use parchment paper and Madden PS4Game with the 25 bag,then afterwards I use a little static for a bit cleaner.Ive just started doing/learned this.Wish some weren't so corny and shared,but you can't if you've givin you're word to Sam,it's just how it is..Were supposed to be here for each other imo.I get it's about Money,but so is everything and many have shared their technology even as they were going legit/brick n mortar to make money.But blah blah blah,I would just like to be able to try My sift that clean,being that I don't live where I can get it or have enough kif to make it worth while and never will, because I'll never be able to get those sweet ass frames Bubbleman uses being as poor as I am.even though My two sets of 20gal Original BBags i bought from Him/through Him..Cost Me pretty much $2000 altogether,I use them to card..I bought 2,20 gal 8-Bag and two 5gal sets
,lol.Someone call the Whaaaambulance
.I'm happy enough with mine,so I'll survive.Keep it moving forward everyone.Peace and Stay Safe,DancesWithWeed
And to the holders,who know who they are, hopefully they share with us,the people,who need it for fighting pain,when MMJ does the take
