Beyond any doubt, this is the best book ever written on the subject of clandestine chemistry, by anyone, anywhere, anytime, period! Your humble and gracious Uncle has been training champions for over 20 years now, and this tour de force of clandestine ingenuity is living testament to the fact that the game hasn't passed me by.

6 What this work reveals, even more than my other books, is the utterfutilitv of the so-called "War on Drugs." Of course, there can be no such thing as a "war" on inanimate objects - there can only be a war on people. Endlessly adding more common chemicals to lists to be watched by America's secret police has done nothing to stem this nation's voracious appetite for illegal drugs. Any laws against victimless crimes can be easily evaded - "criminals" are just plain smarter than the Drug Clowns. Even the most cursory reading of this text shows that most of my references are from common standard chemical literature - that's right, fo lks, "drugs" are merely chemicals, and knowledge of how they are produced can never be removed from the body of civilized knowledge.

7 So grow up, "Drug Warriors," and get a life' Try to do something useful for the society you feed on instead of destroying our freedoms. So what new treats do we have in the Eighth Edition? Since I wrote the Seventh Edition of this book in 2004, all ephedrine and pseudoephedrine pills have been pulled off the shelves and are now a "show ID" item. 1 have uncovered a very simple and effective method of cooking your own ephedrine and pseudoephedrine on potentially large scales using hardware store and health food store materials. I have also added new meth cooking procedures which totally eliminate the need to obtain iodine or red phosphorus or anhydrous ammonia.

8 I have also revamped the previous recipes to allow the use of the weaker or adulterated materials now found on shelves. How about forgetting all about those pills and cooking crank from cinnamon oil? I know you'll like that! Or maybe setting up shop using common flavoring ingredients') Or any number of most common and easily available industrial chemicals that can never be put under any sort of effective sales scrutiny? The police state goon squads and their lowest common denominator, pandering-politician masters, have once again been exposed for what they are with this Eighth Edition of Secrets of Methamphetamine Manufacture.

9 They have bitten off more than they can chew, and it's going to be my pleasure to jam it right to them! Public ridicule and a practical demonstration of their impotence are the only things which politicians and police-staters dread: This Eighth Edition will heap both upon their heads in liberal portions. If they thought they were getting their butts kicked before, well, they haven't seen anything yet' Let us pray they take their newfound humility well. Enjoy this latest installment of the Journal for Clandestine Cookers. It will educate, entertain, and shake pillars all at the same time.

10 You'll be quite pleased, I'm sure! Fester Chapter One Chemicals and Equipment Chapter One Chemicals and Equipment 1 The heart of the chemical laboratory is the set of glassware collectively called "the kit." It consists of several round bottom flasks, a claisen adapter, a still head with thermometer holder, a thermometer, a condenser, a vacuum adapter and a separatory funnel (sep funnel, for short). These pieces each have ground glass joints of the same size, so that the set can be put together in a variety of ways, depending on the process being done. For the production of a quarter to a third of a pound batches, 24/40 size ground glass joints are used.
