Now if your lazy you can mix it with a drill, i prefer the ol fashion way, take your mixing paddle and start mixing for a good 15-20minutes...This is the most IMPORTANT step, do not under do this process.

Now put your bucket at a higher elevation and let it sit for 4 hours UNDISTURBED, this is very important that you do not tuch or bother the bucket as millions and millions of trichomes will be collecting at the bottom of the bucket...

After your 4 hours are over, sift out the liquid into your other bucket until about 1\2inch of liquid remain over your nice golden brown hash material, Now take your turkey baster and sift as much liquid with out tuching your material....

when you see its 70% dry, form your material into a ball...let it dry some more and work the ball again until u will eventually have a black ball of Gumby Hash....

Drying hash with light bulbs and pressing wet hash is all bad advice-- this really sounds like the worst possible way to go about drying water hash.  Cardboard is the way to go.

  Now all that being said, your run looks great.  This method works great for people, I just think it's too bad that it is referred to so often as "gumby" hash, as if some guy on YouTube was the first person to conceive of this method--- which the guy actually does claim!  Bullcrap.  Then he doesn't even offer any sort of unique steps or advice.

Thanks for sharing your results.

I was just discussing the topic at hand, offering a critique, not trying to rip on ya or be rude. 

I realize that the method is supposed to be as simple as possible and not use screens, so maybe you could say it was a bit funny of me to mention using a 20μ-40μ to drain all the siphoned water off-- but again, Iam just discussing ideas about your topic, not telling you off.  But really, you're already using a colander/strainer so what Iam proposing isn't any huge jump in reasoning.  The mesh screen I mentioned above would be the same price as a kitchen strainer anyways.

Iam actually planning on trying something similar in the next few weeks but with the addition of two screens and an actual drying/pressing screen (which is usually 25μ nylon mesh; a piece of real silk also works fine) which makes handling the wet hash much easier and allows excess water to drain.  So I was really interested to see your results...your final product looks great too. 

And I know it's not the same as running your material through bags, but I brought up my points because these are very basic principles were working with here in this method-- ice-hash, water-hash, bubblehash, "gumby", the isolation of the glandular heads of trichomes away from contaminants in H2O...

...I am trying to figure out what "sifting" the water out means but I think I get it. Basically getting hte water out without disturbing what has sunk to the bottom. Groovy.
