    best thing I ever bought for drying is a hanging rack...2 foot round, you can fit about 6-7ounces per level, plus is collapses down to nothing when not in use...personally, screw that buds on the branch thing, chop off the buds bro

    Hell yeah man!! I almost feel stupid for not having one. I had 4 plants dated to come out yesterday and spent almost 1 1/2 hours last night trimming just one. If I could save an hour labor on each plant I'd be crazy not to invest in one. Good job Mr. G!!!

    WOW I stand corrected, those buds look to be trimmed way tighter than the ones in the demo video you posted last week. Yours look Awesome:thumbsup:

    Takes me at least that long to trim a plant too & that doesn't even take into consideration the final trim I usually end up doing before I jam em up. :5eek:

    I am going to get one as well. May just get the 16 inch one. I like to trim up really well but it does get tedious after an hour or so.


    Like the hanging drying rack as well.


    Thanks for the post !

    Better trim than my ham fingers usually do. Thinking one of those is in the near future. Picked up a drying rack a few years ago, bought another, then another. What's really nice is when the buds are dry everything goes straight in the jars.

    Mine came with different stiffness fingers that sweep the bud so you can use stiffer ones and get a tighter trim if you want. Also make sure you get the blade not the wire for the cutter if you have a choice and if not order it separately, otherwise you'll be changing wire blades every 15 minutes.

    This came with a flat blade and a serated blade.


    Works very well.

    Holy cow, I just looked at the price...about $100 more than I guessed. But man that's money well spent since it works. Prob next year they will b $100 cheaper.

    I like the see thru top and serrated blade idea. Plus I notice yours has a bigger cutting surface area than mine because mine has a big metal dome housing the gears in the middle. And yours is $60 cheaper. :thumbsup:

    Mr.GreenJeans:


    That thing looks pretty impressive.


    What are your thoughts about the contents of the trim bowl after you finished? Was there a lot of small bud material lost in the trimming? How well would this trimmer work on fluffy outdoor buds?


    Thanks,


    OS

    Small fluffy stuff that you would use for hash or add to your BHO mix, the blades make short work of it. All the trimmings end up in the bowl. And all of that gets used for butter and oil or BHO. You can also adjust how close


    the blade cuts.


    JCIO, the $189.00 was not a bad price. for the job it does and the time it save me. It's well worth it buddy. :thumbsup:


    Just finished up trimming last 4 plants.

    I second, third and fourth that (using a salad spinner to trim). Mine does a beautiful job. I have the Spin-Pro and the gear box in the middle is not in the way at all. I have both the serated and solid blades and prefer the solid blade - you do have to clean it between runs (the blade that is)


    To all the doubters - once you try one of these you will be impressed and wonder how you ever lived without one.


    Oh yeah - I almost forgot - WHAT AN AWESOME FRIGGIN RUN

    I looked at others but went with same unit you have (copycat), should have it Monday or Tuesday. Was wondering if you've tried both blades and how often they needed cleaned. I'd think a little Iso would work, or scrape the strait one with a razor and save everything possible. I make bubble hash with my hand trim so I'm hoping the machine's will work as well or better.


    After seeing what a good job yours did I think I'll postpone this weekends trim work till mine shows up.


    Just wondering, how much time do you think you spent and saved with it. I'm sure the process will only get even quicker with each use. Can't wait!!.


    Oh, Nice haul there Dude!!

    For the time saved and how it does a great job it's def worth the money.


    I would take the trim and make joints out of it. The old lady would love it. I bet you had enough trim to make a lot of joints. :pimp:


    For those who have been using them. Is there any need to sharpen the blades. How long do they last? and also can you buy the blades separately? How much for the blades if so?


    Nice haul there Mr. G!
