Old Reviews Wwwillie gets a Grinder - Santa Cruz Shredder

[wwwillie]

Where was all this fancy stuff? I know it's been 10 years, but still!
I have been using the Magic Flight Launch Box vaporizer for a few weeks now and love it. I have come to the conclusion that it needs a good grinder to prepare the herb for use. I did a bunch of searching and based on reviews, ad copy, and whatever, I purchased a Santa Cruz Shredder. The best price was $65.00 shipped from Amazon and came with the "Cali Crusher", a small "pollen" press.

It is the medium size, 4 part type with screen and kief collector, and it is 2.1 in tall and 2.1 in in diameter. The teeth are different from most being rectangular with extended edges that are quite sharp. The threads for the chambers make it easy to open and close. It is hard anodized aluminum. The magnet holding the chamber together are very strong. The fit and finish are excellent.

I have only had it a few days and ground a couple of buds through it. It works very well, macerates a good amount into a nice fluffy pile. It turns easily to produce the grind. You just love the feel of it. It's fun to use too.

Hope to update this a long time from now stating how durable it has been and that it continues to produce!

lol, nice grab dude. I just use little scissors to snip off pieces of bud, and then I sorta crunch them after they've been vaped for a second and they break up really nice.

:launch:

That grinder looks sweet. I wish I had a little shovel for kief. I'd pour a little pile of it on a table and use a mini snow plow truck to move it about.

Hey Dude! Love the shovel! And the collection!!
GL, ya a baby plow would be a hoot!!

I have put a few buds through it, works a treat! I could have used one like this all those years ago. Won't be without it now. Love the collector under the screen. It's building up a nice little bit in there. Looking forward to pressing it into a nice little sandy chunk!

Buy a spare denture brush, the ones with the tiny head. They work great at cleaning out the grinder, it also pushes everything that's left through the screen. Making it look new.

Another little trick is having a tiny piece of clean small metal like a ball baring in with the section with the mesh. Again helps move things around and you'll be amazing at home much more trichs you get in the bottom.

I like to pile my crystal into cling film and roll them with a hot bottle of water, making them melt. Lovely hash.
