THE TRIED AND TRUE HOME PRODUCTION

THE TRIED AND TRUE HOME PRODUCTION METHOD

(1) Break open the inhalers, a pair of real sharp scissors does this good.
Place the cottons that were inside in a jar and close the lid. (Remember you
use all 12 cottons.)

(2) In the bowl, combine 1- 1/3 oz. water and 2/3 oz. muriatic acid. Shred
cottons in this solution, and knead for 5 minutes with hands. (ALWAYS BE SURE
THERE'S CLEAN RUBBER GLOVES on your hands.) You can do it bare-handed if you've
got tough skin. Squeeze all juice out of filters after you knead, and throw
em away.

(3) Filter the remaining liquid into the quart jar. It will be necessary to do
this several times to get that awful smelling oil out. The chemicals in the
inhalers have been bonded to the HCl, and the oils have been filtered off.
Throw the filters away.

(4) Pour enough of the solution into a small bottle to fill it 1/3 full. Save
any leftover juice for the second batch.

(5) Pour 1/4 teaspoon of the lye crystals into the bottle and agitate. Do this
carefully, as the mixture will become hot, and give off a gas. Repeat this
step until the mixture remains cloudy.

(6) Fill the bottle from step (5) up the rest of the way with ether. Cap the
bottle, and agitate for about 8 minutes. It is very important to expose every
molecule of the free-base to the ether for as long as possible.

(7) Let the mixture settle. There will be a middle layer that is very thick.
Tap the side of the bottle to get this layer as thin as possible.

(8) Remove the top layer with the eyedropper, being careful not to get any of
the middle layer in it. Save the top layer, and throw the rest away.

(9) Fill a bottle half-way with water, and about 10 drops of acid. Pour the
top layer from step (8) into the bottle, and cap it. Shake the bottle for 2
minutes. When it settles, remove the top layer and throw it away. The free
base has now been bonded to the HCl/water mixture.

(10) If there is anything left from step (3), repeat the procedure wi
