haha thanks Im allways loving the bumps and positive vibes, I really do think this should be stickied whos with me? I know a couple people are allready. Im just glad this is benefiting people.
I'm really new to Beeline... So this is probably REALLY dumb, but couldn't you just use the hemp string to light your stuff with? Or will it burn too quickly?
No you can't, that would be way too dangerous. Font question the design, it works for everyone, there are even other brands that make the same hemp wick+beeswax product under a different name.
hell yea! oh I came accross a few comments towards beeline regarding smell issues while burning and no it really isnt an issue. It barely smells for those two secs if any at all.
Yea man i saw that thread had me a little worried . but its whatever. Def gonna hit up walmart soon, and michaels. It really is a good guide, well written, helpful pictures also.
Man I am so glad I saw this. I have some Hungarian Hemp that i tried to use a while back and it burnt way to fast and not strong enough. Now I can simply make it myself instead of spending a grand a year at my local head shop. Thanks alot man!!
hell ya man hit that shit up you wont be dissapointed by all the beeline your gonna end up making. Thanks for the kind words Im just really glad this thread has been helpfull to so many people.
Yo man great guide, I just made my first batch. It came out amazing, I'd never smoked with legit bee-line or any other kind before but I made my own of this stuff and it came out sick. The herb is 10x better smoked this way tastes delicious. Sticky this for real I had to bookmark it to make sure I could always come back to it. Ps What length did you make yours? I made a few that were a yard long and a few that were 2 ft.
Just got: - 400ft of hemp cord off Amazon for [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Hemp-Twine-Bead-Cord-NATURAL/dp/B002OKJGA4/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I2HGEDYLYCYHGP&colid=22WUWC1ZTBKF0"]$5 shipped[/ame] - 1lb PURE beeswax off ebay from legit bee keepers (so it's pure, no chemicals) for $10 shipped So once I get it all I'll have close to 400ft of beesline for only $15. If I only use half the block, I can spend $5 and get ANOTHER 400ft. So 800ft for $20? Win. Thanks OP! P.S. Haven't ordered the hemp twine yet and had a question. Found [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Darice-20-Hemp-Cord-Natural/dp/B001689Y8Y/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1288820993&sr=8-12"]this[/ame] spool for about $8 shipped, whereas the one I originally linked to is only about $5 shipped. Can you guys tell a difference? The $5 one is 0.5mm thick, and the $8 one just says "Thickness: 20#". Any idea which one would be better? If the $8 is better it's def worth the extra $3...
I'm going to assume that the 8$ one would be thicker, but im only saying that because i noticed that the 8$ was heavier (3.4 ounces as opposed to the 5$ 1.9 ounces). Though that could be due to a whole number of reasons so don't hold me to that.
So is thicker necessarily better? Will it burn longer/slower or something? Planning on ordering tonight once I hear back from you guys .
I have never used beeline so i cant say if thickness will contribute to it burning slower or any thing i was only assuming that thicker would mean slower burning.
Im seriously glad this is helping alot of people, Come on mods I feel a sticky is in order. any-who Its about that time for me to go buy some more hemp twine. My lhs sells nice big rolls of it for pretty cheap so im going to be in beeline heaven pretty soon, I even still have a good amount of wax left from that original bar.
Thicker beeline may burn a bit slower but it also may be a bit harder to extinguish. I tried this stuff called ITal hempwick, its just like beeline, but a bit thicker. I personally preffered the thinner Beeline.
After having smoked a few times with my home made beeline with this thread I have a few comments. First if you guys make your own make sure you dip it enough times, I think I may have not used enough wax, I just waited till bubbles stopped coming out of the string and then dipped it again. But ye on that note if you make it too thin it burns real quick especially if your holding your hit in and you forget to put it out.... you might accidentally lit my sleeve on fire. Not saying I did that or anything. Also once your done making it if you have any left over wax I cut off the top of a poland spring bottle and poured it in there and let it cool off then melted it again to make another batch rinse and repeat. Ive made almost 300 yards off 1 lb of wax and I still have some left over.
