SWIM got some Bestine and tried dissolving it, although it really didn't 'dissolve' (or maybe he didn't add enough) it wasn't like water and oil, but it seemed like he really couldn't get it mixed. Anyway, SWIM had a mess in his glass dish and after trying to nudge this oily glop around for 1/2 hour (SWIM tried to 'herd' it into one corner of dish, using a spoon so it got all over that, so he got a razor blade to kinda scrape if off the spoon, so then it was on the spoon AND the razor blade so he used his finger, which got it off the spoon and the razor blade but didn't work in the glass dish very well) he gave up and put it in the garage to dry out again. It DID change the consistency of the stuff, now it's not really a oil, but kinda a paste, and when it hardens, it's hard. It's also dark, almost a light red (sorta like the MHRB). Theat's the whole lb. of MHRB sitting in that dish now (other than what SWIM got out of the bark residue by baseifying it directly-maybe 1/2 gram) so he hopes it turns out ok, I guess we'll see!

SWIM learned to use Bestine and to not put it on roof-he was hoping to be a little more ahead in the game besides this-but there is always the Kratom tomorrow or the next day, he doesn't figure too much can go wrong there.
