Is A Paper Clip Dabber Dangerous?

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by SmokeErrythang, Aug 31, 2014.

  1. I post alot of "is this cancerous?" stuff haha. I get paranoid about shit.

    I dont have an actual dabber so ive always used a paperclip everytime ive dabbed. Will the shitty aluminum in the paper clip give off chemicals when it touches the hot nail?
     
  2. Yes, it could possibly give off chemicals. Paperclips aren't designed to take that kind of heat, so you should get a proper nail that is designed to take heat

    I use to do it before I got one I doubt it's harmful unless your are gouging the paper clip into the redhot nail but either way just drop the dab on the nail fast and don't touch the paper clip to the nail at all I'm sure you plan on getting a dabbler anyway if your into dabs

  4. I used to do it, Never had any issues, usually I 'hover' the dab just over the hot nail and it just drops right off onto it. Now I use something different but it's still not a regular dabber.
     
  5. I used a paper clip before I got my dabber. The way I see it, touching it to the hot nail won't make the paper clip hot enough to actually release chemicals. Just because the nail is red hot, doesn't mean it'll turn the paper clip red hot.

    By the way, you shouldn't be dabbing off of a red hot nail. Wait til the redness goes away, then dab it. You'll thank me later. :D
