Sorry if I missed something. How does one melt the dmt onto the copper mesh ball? GVG seems the fav around here, but too expensive for me. I have fashioned a machine using Q's method, with a hotsauce bottle, but am a little confused how to use it.

Place weighed dose on mesh plug, lightly flame it/heat it - it will bead up and liquify immediately, soaking in to the plug. Vaporize while inhaling, adjusting flame accordingly. The thick white cloud in the chamber presages intense blast off.

Probably works with the machine, too. Just light gently and inhale slowly, it will melt very quickly.

Another method you could do is to put the (preferably measured) dose onto a spoon or glass coaster or something then gently heat the spice so it melts then scrape it up with the copper.
There will be some left on the spoon or w/e but you will get most of it and as soon as the flame nears the wet side of the copper you'll see plumes of smoke.

Heat the mesh and put spice on it. It will melt in quickly.
