What is the correct blotter paper to use?

[Fusion]

Can someone just get the "clean & clear" blotting paper and print something on it perforate it ect.... and use it for lucy? Or does it have to be a certain type of blotter? Ive also seen rice blotting paper and such, can someone enlighten me on this subject. (or can someone direct me with the proper link Please and thank you :thumb_up: )

acid-free watercolor paper, 60 wt or greater, something like 140 or 150 wt.

You are awesome, dont let anybody tell you otherwise :!:

One more thing!, what does the wt stand for? how do i check the paper for this? And does it matter if it's rough, hot-pressed HP or cold-pressed

 

[benzyme]

it's a measurement relative to paper density

cold-pressed, hot pressed...this won't really matter. you want an absorbent paper with
some thickness to it.

yeah i just looked it up, i guess im going to go with cold pressed. Thank's for the help! i appreciate it!

How is blotter paper dosed? Do they individually drop it on or is the paper dipped? Always wondered..

 

[benzyme]

I guess families lay them in a solution, but proper thugs would use a micropipette for more uniform dosing.

The solution being very diluted obviously right

Can you even assure even dosing on blotter with out individually dosing it out?.. i guess is what ive never understood.

I imagine that if you have a dilute solution with a measured amount in it and you dip a sheet of blotter in it, using a very flat surface, the liquid would be evenly enough spread that you could just about know the dose of each tab just by diving the amount in the solution by the number of blotters in the sheet. Or I guess another way would be to have a dropper that dispenses a known amount and put one drop on each tab, I'm not sure how accurate a dropper is though.

Isn't this the sort of question such that if you have to ask it, you probably shouldn't get an answer? Not to put a dimmer on things.

Most people who lay blotters are told which paper to use. What makes them more suitable for the task compared to someone who asks this on a forum ?

And as benzyme said, the usual "LSD family" way isn't always the most optimal so why not ask people how to do it and what to use ?

Aye I wouldn't know either way. "Balls and Brains", a hot dog company.

To be honest if the person is asking then they either:

1. Have the knowhow to make lsd, not a particularly easy task, and for some reason just aren't sure about blotters. If they know how to make lsd then more power to them, who cares about the trivial aspect of administration.

2. (More likely perhaps?) Has come into possession of some liquid lsd and just wants a way to have it handy instead of in liquid form. Again the paper aspect seems trivial in this scenario.

People usually only learn by either trial and error or by asking someone who already knows.

I think the idea is to know how much your paper will hold then soak until fully saturated

 

[benzyme]

no, the idea is to select a paper with a known density, and impregnate that paper with a solution of a known concentration. the concentration would be determined using a spectrophotometer (old lit. describes it as "colorimetric" concentration determination)

'laying' sheets has always seemed like a sloppy procedure to me, a multichannel pipettor would be more efficient. the solution would be in a 10 mL buffer reservoir, dispensed in dim lighting, of course.

Nice, how hard do you think it would be for the average Joe to go from Ergot culture to LSD given he had the equipment?

 

[benzyme]

not hard, given the right provisions and a decent understanding of the techniques involved.

From the attitude:

No discussion is allowed about synthesis of illegal substances, since it requires highly dangerous and watched chemicals. Discussion of simple safe non-comercial synthesis not requiring watched chemicals are tolerated (example: the reduction of dmt n-oxide to dmt with zinc, or the supposed lsa-to-lsh conversion)
