I use a lot of screens for smoking hash (I like to smoke my hash and weed separately). The label says "This product contains a chemical known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm."

Anyone avoid screens for this reason?

You use Copper or Stainless ? I use both but like copper better. Never knew of this warning though.

yes, what are they made of
there is a chance of metals giving off toxic fumes

i agree wiht cannacamper that copper is prob better

but people also use staneless steel for cooking and i dont imagine that there is any ill effect

i guess if you are concerned you could use one of those glass flower thinggies

I was always under the impression that you should never smoke out of copper.

Right now I'm using Beamer stainless steel screens.

I'm looking into Daisy glass screens right now.

Utah Biodiesel Supply sells stainless steel mesh.

I bought a small 6" x 6" Stainless Steel Mesh Sample Sheet of 5 and 15 micron size
for something else than smoking. I can cut both of these with just scissors as well.

For smoking purposes, I guess you would have to take a much larger micron hole size.
If you bought a sample sheet you would be able to make a bunch of screens and be
set for quite awhile.

I think he meant to say brass. It's a softer metal.

I would worry if using a blow torch and heating the hell out of it. I have only vaped for over 2 years, and it seems much,much healthier.

lol I hear ya man. I know the risk isn't that high it's just the concept that bugs me. I even use hemp wick when smoking hash which doesn't give off much heat.

I vaped for a solid year but what can I say, I'm a smoking man.

this is probably of a much higher quality than the stainless steel used for massed produced screens, this is def a step above
/i imagine most mass produced SS screens were made form scrap
