This next cycle will be my first time dealing with amps. Whats the best way to open them? Pliars, small metal file, my teeth?? Thanks
 
smash them with a hammer.......i believe researchology (see banner above) sells an amp opener....basically a small blade used to score the glass, then you just crack the top. or just use a frickin' knife.....
 
id say just use a knife with a serrated edge or whatever u kno with the teeth and shave it down all the way around so it weakens where u want it to then grab it in a towel or a shirt or something like put it in there and break it so u dont cut urself n shit..it shouldnt be too hard
 
I personally use an amp opener, but one little trick for those without.... take a pen cap, slide the top in, and use the pen cap to snap it. Nice clean break and no glass pieces stuck in your thumbs! :D
 
Like I said earlier, make sure they aren't already scored. The first time I used amps I was scoring them, then a friend told me the type I was using didn't need scoring.

I open them by holding it and snaping off the nech of the amp with my thumb.. the amp opener does help score the neck to make it snap off a bit easyer but really once you open a couple you'll see theres nothing to it. It's all the way you hold it and get the nack of just snaping off the neck..

Hold a pencil in your hand and use your thumb to snap the pencil in half. Thats basicly what your doing with the amp..

I almost think that most amps are scored and if there not the amp is so thin you'll see that like i said they just snap right off.
 
In my experience scored or not they all break right off. With out the score i used a bic pen cap and a towel.

Also, if you've never used an amp the best way to draw the liquid after you broke the top is to tip the amp upside down. Some amps are too tall to get to the bottom even with a 1.5" pin....and no, it wont come out, the vacuum created will hold the fluid from dropping out.

Exactly how I do it. Fold a paper towel in fourths, and wrap it around the bottom of the amp to protect your hand in case it breaks. Then use the pen cap to snap off the top. If you dont have a pen cap just use another paper towel.

Yep, that simple, don't be afraid, just snap that sucker.....once in a great while you'll have an amp that shatters, but it's rare - out of the hundreds I've opened i might have shattered 2
 
i just use a pair of pliers and crush the top quick, iv also use scissors
 
the few amps I have opened... I used my hands as well. only had one unsuccessful outcome so far. But it was probably my fault neway. I was holding the damn amp so tight as to NOT drop it so I could snap it off with my right thumb that I fuckin crushed the amp with my left hand, haha

You keep talking like that i might start thinking your a rookie.. pliers and scissors..LOL I think we should make a new rule before anyone can give addvice on Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) they first need to know how to open an amp..LOL Just fucking with ya mikey boy...LOL Pliers and scissors lol your killing me you funny fucker....

I don't mean to open a long dead thread, but couldn't you just cut out the waxy plastic on the amp and pour the estosterone/deca/adex out?
