Default pill press

i thought of a simple way to make a pill press,and i wont too know if it would work!

a car jack up side down with a metal plate attached to it..

sort of thing!! (sorry about drawing)

so u just wind down the car jack and it compresses the pills..

and then your template underneath..(or even cook top under neath that)

so what do u think? would this work?

Something along those lines could work... but your going to have to get a little more involved like wtf is providing the back pressure against the car jack? etc. etc.

yeah exactly. you will need a LOT of pressure to press pills. more than you think. but dont forget you binders. you will NEED these to hold the pills together when you press them. Plus you want to be able to measure the amount of pressure that you are applying.

To be honest pills are pretty much a joke IMO unless one has massive quantities in ones dreams etc. and most of the times the one dreaming is atleast one or two steps back from the biatch doing the grunt work of pill pressing. If this is for personal use ever hear of parachuteing? Or Gel Caps.

a cousin of mine had an "E" dealer that packed his own pills. she said it looked like a drill press. something about filling a tube, and then having almost a jackhammer type punch push down on in at some X amount of psi

Pills aren't as hard to make as some people think. The less pressure you have, the more binders you use. Make sure your die plate has a bigger surface area than what is touching the pills, therefore PSI is increased by law of physics. If your really serious it helps to know someone who welds. Go visit a junkyard, where I'm absolutely positive you can obtain a hydraulic jack and an electric motor to power it. SWIM found one from off of an old dump truck, so the PSI is there. Just use your head!
