Water hash to oil (or even better thc acetate) - questions

Sorry if I posted in the wrong spot.

Im wondering if there is a process to turn water (bubble) hash into oil.
Im thinking if possible would be a better process then normal butane extraction of plant material. Im proficiant at polar/non-polar extractions using a varity of tools but Im not sure what solvents would be the most efficiant with these compounds.

The long term goal is eventual creation of THC acetate from the extracted oil.
Three step process
Wash hash from material.
convert solid hash into oil.
convert oil into acetate.

Need ALOT more info on the acetate step, details are scetchy at best as I can find.

id extract it with 99% ISO in this case...due to ease...a butane extraction on bubblehash seems a lot harder to me, and may be a waste if you cant get it all. Bubble shouldnt have to much plant matter, so you should be ok with it.

Ignore my comments about acetate, Ive decided not to go that route.
Still would like to get water hash into oil form.

So what your saying is just go into a alch extraction from the semi-solid hash and it should just go into oil at that point after reduction?
I have found a way to get the water hash to dry out into essentually a powder so dissolving into solution should not be difficult for me.

My experiments are two fold in that
A) I just like changing forms of stuff for shits and giggles.
B) "Earwax" (ie whipped oil) is all the rage around here and the shops are literally pricing it at double normal solid hash prices, needless to say its a market worth looking at.

Yeah i dotn see why it wotn work, you should end up with a nice honey coloured oil when you cook it off....the only way id try the butane extaction is if i had 10g of bud or trim to pack it with, or else you wont get a proper seal and it wont extract all the way. im no scientist but i been makin extracts for about 6 years now.
i used to smoke wax when it was called "Budder" from the Budderking, its actualy been around for along time, but wasnt avail to most people unless you went to DaKine (which is closed down now) or got it on mail order. I hate it now cuz everyone has/wants it lol...i like a nice golden/red oil instead.

Lemmie know what you went with
