i would use an exacto knife with some steel putty on the blade for depth.those guys in afgani are poor and don't have as many options as we do. besides that, they're too high to care.

Yeah but the funny thing is that even though they're so poor and have less at their disposal the tools they use are the best I've seen!

If anybody has more ideas then please keep 'em comin'!

use a razor blade for lancing, and then get a pane of glass, from a frame or something and use that for collecting, it helps it dry whilst harvesting. Also, don't lance and wait, COLELCT RIGHT AWAY! it is simply retarded to let it sit all day, like some people suggest, unless you are harvesting acres and acres of pods there is no reason to do this. The wind will blow and the pods will bounce off one another and the latex will drip, you'll lose alot of goodies. So, lance, collect the milky goodness, wait and lance again. cheers

take 4 boxcutter blades- the trapizoid shaped ones- just the blades

tape or something them together, and you could cover everything but the part you want to be able to cut and voila

I've never used or made anything specific for lancing, just a simple razor will do, just be careful lancing each pod. Personally I think unless you're doing a gigantic field like in the middle east there is no reason to be that careless,. I imagine you are doing something small and personal, so I wouldnt even stress making something that is consistent. each pod is different, the walls vary in thickness, pods are different in size, so naturally the thickness of the lance needs to be different. I think its best to just use a really sharp razor and be careful lancing each pod, once you make the first lance its easy to go from there. good luck. tis alot of work for a tiny amount of pleasure,.

Yeah some great ideas in here.

So it's a lot of work for a little pleasure??

What about strains like Afghani or Tasmanian Alkaloids?? I hear the yields are tremendously rich and heavy.

Thanks all again for the help.

One easy method is to get a cheap raiser, remove the blade and break it to pieces using a couple pairs of pliers and glue the pieces in with fast set epoxy. Wait until the epoxy hardens to tacky consistency then press the pieces in on the end of a Popsicle stick or tongue depressor using hemostats to set the depth of penetration to 1/16 inch or less, one cheap $0.15 disposable raiser will make about 5 of these tools with 4 tines each if you are good at breaking the raiser's blade up.

Goddamn this webpage design sucks. Created an account just so I could post, took the better part of a fucking hour. I've got you all beat I use one of these when I used to do heating and air, makes a great scoring tool. http://www.google.com/m/products?q=radiator+comb

A knife for this work is made so easy.
Take four pcs of box cutter edges. Simply bind together and a "knife" with four parallel edges comes out. You easily can adjust the space between the edges by pieces of plastic or wood.
Works perfectly :-)

PS: Even if the thread is almost as old as the biblical Abraham, someone perhaps still is interested in how to do it.

Just search Google for 'SomniClaw'



Even though another User posted a LINK to a Google Search, I won't since no LINKS are allowed (right mr. MOD?)

Someone asks a question. They need help finding something that NONE OF YOUR SPONSORS OFFER!!

I know this because no one in the ENTIRE WORLD Offers it. (hence the user's reason for asking)

Yes, I am very aware.

And STILL, after ALL those years, NOBODY was able to provide a substantial answer to the originating Question.

Oddly enough, I too, am  also someone who hasn't logged in for several years. Yet, still, somehow, I came across this post before any other Posts.

And now YOU TOO have found it, and commented on it, JUST as I did!!

Weird huh?

In fact, most of the Posts I see are several years old.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you come across this post? Being that it's so ancient and all?

Just curious.
Thanks!

Haha because you bumped it. Replying to a post brings it back to the
first page of the forum. Had you not replied to it, none of us would have
seen it.

Yes, I'm aware that Old Posts "Bump" to front when there's any activity on it.

And that may be how YOU guys found it, but somehow it was the first thing I came across too - so I'm still unsure how I found it. *LOL*

I was mainly answering that post only because there has yet to be a Pod Lancing Tool on the Market until just a couple months ago.

And I remember looking for something similar back when I was "Harvesting Pods" years ago.

So ya, I wasn't expecting the original Poster to see my Comment, per say. But being that it's a Public Forum, I thought it might be helpful for others who may be looking.

Please understand that I have a tendency to come off sounding like I've got a sarcastic undertone.

But please know, I am being sincere.

No dis-respect directed towards you guys whatsoever-
(@LSoares and @natedawgnow)

I DO appreciate your heads-up.

Again, I apologize for any sarcastic undertones that may have insulted anyone. That's just the way I am, but only in the most loving of ways (it just comes off weird to people who don't know me. )

Hope that clarifies things.

Cheers!

FOR FUTURE REFERENCE,THIS IS A GOOD PIC OF THE "PRINCIPAL" OF BLADE EXTRUSIONS, OR MAYBE PURCHASE THE ITEM & REMOVE THE EXTRA BLADES FOR SPACING FOR A SCORING BLADE(S). SINCE THE PHOTOS AREN'T UPLOADING TODAY, THE PART IN REFERENCE IS A SUPCO FPT 15, YOU'LL GET THE IDEA

This is an old thread but i guess the question will come back again and again.

To score an poppy pod you must understand how the sap is stored in the pod.
In the middle of the pod is the area where the seeds are developed and stored until ready to be spread.
There is a doubble wall in the pod and the sap is stored inside this doubble wall.
If one cut to deep the sap will enter the seed storage area and not be coming out on the outside of the pod witch is what you want so it will dry in the sun and then can be collected.
So the cut needs to be very shallow, not more than something like 1 mm.
The scoring tools seen on pics are almost always homemade and a lot of materials can be used.
Blades of "boxcutter" knifes seem good, the ones that can be broken off in sections.
Usually a number of blades are mounted parallell 1 to 2 mm apart.
The blades must not make cuts deeper than 1 mm, only the outer skin should be cut.
The sap will be pushed out of the pod and form droplets on the pod that will dry and harden.
This hardened resin can then be scraped off each pod and collected.
Each pod can be scored a number of times but the quality and amount of opium will decrease every time.
Just google opium scoring tool or pod scoring tool and you see examples of homemade scoring tools.

To get any larger amount of opium you need very many pods.
Even if you have hundred pods you will not get very much opium.
But it can be fun to try scoring a few pods to see how it works.
Remember that this is illegal and opium is as addictive as heroin.
