Keep in mind you must apply this dry on plants 24 hrs before a rainstorm that an Important part of making it work correctly. If wet it quickly washes off the plant but if left on 24 hrs to dry it is trapped into the plant and can last 4 months or so.

Some chemistry with Tin and gold with Aqua Regia. If you need more info look up more data on it.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqua_regia#Dissolving_gold

Your most welcome. Yes Nitric acid quite a cool acid.

Cobalt carbonate and some cobalt chloride waste.

Have you tested this water with a Chlorine DDP detector Hach meter for 10 seconds up to 1 minute. I assume with proper filtering of water this could be Ok. I worry about underdosing on Chlorine. I did research in Listeria, etc that can be found in pond water and lake water. It a good Instructable but can you detect the Chlorine levels??

I took a lot of Microbiology and waste treatment. Hmm 0.07 to 0.28 mg per L of Chlorine seems right. You know Listeria well it can survive 100+ mg an L of chlorine due to biofilms and genetics. Cool Instructable. You don't want it so high like 4 mg an L but that can be normal. Normally 1-3 mg per L chlorine residual is normal.

Here Cody project I really find your project cool it deserves more views.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1x6gA2ku0dc

Yes, Cody Reen did this with a Portable GC and detected radiation in the atmosphere. I find that this type of Project is quite cool. It was a Patreon exclusive tho.

Altho brass may not work it may work with copper. Copper was plated onto the wire so If you WANT you can try copper plating with this material.

Especially with safety with no respect that wiring diagram is not very clear. hmm. Someone could get hurt a complete wire diagram with good pics may be needed. That my info.

More cookie cutter plating will Urethane coat work on this Hmm maybe. Also, I am not sure if cookie-cutter steel will change color with Urethane lacquer? Air exposure doesnot seem to be an issue but light output may be. A new type art maybe?

Here some more Pics of Metal plating results.

Plating different types of steel with this solution makes unique and interesting materials. Here the Orginal pic and here some final ones under UV. UV light 254 nm. It went from grey to black once plated before being hit with Propane.

Also keep in mind if you want to wash an Acid bath procedure with citric acid 5 g per 100 ml or 6 g of Sodium bisulfate in hot water you can. It needs to be decanted and washed off then Lye or Sodium carbonate must be used. This can enhance plating ablities. Wait 4 hrs for the base wash and 1 hr for the acid bath.

Keep in Mind sulfur is very irritating as K2S (Potassium sulfide). Antimony sulfide works very well but your hand may get stained yellow so wear gloves to avoid the sulfur smell and the toxic chemical as well.

Hmm, Lead, and other metals. Have you thought of exposing them to colder temps like dry ice or liquid Nitrogen to observe different effects? Still I really like your projects.

Here something I did with not spinning prisms but with liquid dye (Rhodamine 6G in methanol) excited by 405 nm laser light. The aluminum foil reflects the refractive laser light as the magnetic stir bar spins.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBhaAqsOb3k&feature=youtu.be

With 99 percent Isopropanol Alc of course or 95 percent ethanol.

I use alcohol lamps a lot and an issue is the wick in the professional model not being used it does not work for many uses one wick use and it hard to replace. I made one out a tin can and plan to use it safely as an alternative in Microbiology projects.

Do you think Ammonia Nickel sulfate work to plate over copper or do you need nickel chloride?

In the past I grew time cherry bomb peppers (yes they are hot not as hot as these peppers) so I chopped them up and dehydrated them. That another way of preserving them. Tomatoes, bazil, Orgeno, etc were added to make Home made chilli type Salsa.

You know there a lot of gold in cellphones if you wanted you could see if an HCl/H202 extraction (31 percent, 3 percent) could refine the gold. Some cellphones can have 15-20 g of gold with nickel, copper, tin, lead, etc that can with refinery and chemcial treatment get pure gold.

Hmm interesting chemistry using hydrogen and copper salts to produce a blue flame. Neat!

I may or maynot do the Nitric acid and HCl in antomny appertenly it is very tricky to plate if it is a chloride Antony metal sludge. I will check the wiki on that chemical.http://www.sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=30195Wiki on that chloride salt is it soluble in strong acids?I assume from the wiki excess HCl is needed to prevent this salt from forming an Oxychloride salt.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimony_trichloride

I heard electroplating Nitric acid and HCl with antimony but I worry about the NO2 and HCl gas corroding electrical equipment it is an interesting project if it would work. However I am a bit scared of boiling Magnessium Nitrate and HCl in a distillation flask due to NO2 fumes alone besides HCl.

Have you considered making Poor man Nitric acid with Magnesium Nitrate and Hydrochloric acid? The ratio would be for gold 1 part Nitric acid and 3 parts Hydrochloric acid but do NOT add any Hydrogen Peroxide due to the Nitric acid making toxic NO2 gas! Here a video on it I want to plate with Antimony metal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoLU1EYh6YcAntomy metal is harder and less reactive than gold so the ratio of Nitric acid must prob be higher 1:1 ratio (Nitric acid and HCl).

In Gatineau Quebec. Several mushrooms edible grow here besides Morel mushrooms!

I tried the bacteria with a test with 5 drops of Malachite green dye... It did not decompose the dye prob too toxic for the bacteria so I am waiting for the 20 ml of 1 percent Methylene blue from ebay it may take until Jun 11 they said. Bacteria and sodium formate has already come just waiting for methylene blue dye!

Yes, I was amazed that they grow faster with radiation. I bought sodium formate salt which acts sort of like cyanide so I am preparing a new Instructable. Things eventually adapt to radiation. The lactobacillius R bacteria use formate as a fuel when the concentration is low enough.

The 130 in 1 has a similar Line counter that uses the switch plus the NAND gate to turn on several different LEDs. Your presentation is very cool.https://youtu.be/y4H8VpACYn8

I learn a lot from the electronic kits this is a switch and magnetic reed switch AND transistor gate that two switches turn on a LED. Logic circuits from the 130 in 1 like Op-Amp Radios are very fun too.

In the woods, these grow near October under Smooth sumac trees. Sadly their is a lot of Poison ivy too so I did not want to take any chances. You can also make Ink out these mushrooms as well.

Hmm, so with an LCD oscilloscope these can measure up to 60,000 counts per minute. That pretty darn impressive my 150 dollars one can read up to 65,000 max of beta, gamma and x ray radiation. Always wanted to do something like this.

These kits are quite interesting but sort of Limited due to the rep rate around 25-30 reps a second. I bet you could if Modified attach this to an Oscilloscope and see the results but I think the limited rep would not be as accurate as a 150 dollar Beta, gamma and X-ray GC since these kits are 50-60 dollars on eBay.

Keep in mind gold waste contains toxic chemicals like Nickel and Beryellium that make chloride salts. They also cause cancer Level 1 (Proven in humans) so must be handled with respect. Always send the waste solution to the eco-center.

Like other projects with Organic volitle organics some aromas may provoke allergic reactions so use caution when working with them.

Yes, I have worked with spectrometers in biotech they are worth 1000-1500 dollars US so the fact that you built this is very impressive. Nicely done.

Yeah I may do that. Calbirate the two with gamma sources. Sounds like a cool idea.

Check eBay.https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Bariumcarbonat-BARIUM-CARBONATE-99-9-250-grams/253744018791?hash=item3b14527567:g:YNQAAOSws0JaW8VN

Cool very simple tissue culture results just with water. I have tried this and agars with sugars but they agars allow mold to grow so water works a lot better. Thanks for sharing.

Well, that intersting I have a portable pocket (Beta, gamma and x-ray) GC for 150 dollars that can go to 1000+ micro Sv an Hr and max 65,000 counts per minute. What the max range of x rays and gamma this device can handle?

Yeah the real spectrometers on Prolab or Boreal go for a min of 500 dollars so this is a good idea. I love this idea as a project. Did you try other salts like Barium? Like barium carbonate yes it is quite toxic but proper handling avoids that issue.

Many even lead in sulfuric acid 30 percent forms a weird chemical. from Wiki.Do remeber the lead also contains Arsenic in there too so be careful it not just lead salts.

Well you could collect Orange peels lots of them and distill with ethanol or you could extract it from sugar (Artifical orange powder drinks) with ethanol and freeze-fracture the starches and sugars out. Better off with the Oranges - fresh.I did this with Lemon Pie extract- Low sugars and starches and smells like Lemons.

I may get this that controls pressure, and temperature.https://www.amazon.ca/LIVINGbasics-Programmable-Multi-Use-Pressure-Stainless/dp/B07CYLYD91/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=Pressure+cooker&qid=1555537401&s=gateway&sr=8-10

Looking to get an automated one for 69 dollars on Amazon. If it is Lab grade pyrex is their a high risk of exploison?

Here a few Hidden pictures that I made. The first one is pre-soaked in methanol + Naphthol-1 in Iron chloride (the Naphthol aged) and smelled like summer sausage. It not recommended since it is very sensitive to light and will change color over time. I did experiements with it.

I used to get expensive alcohol lamps from Prolab, etc but now I get a 250 ml paint can put a hole in it then put in a wick for microbiology stuff. Here a picture of it. I use 99 percent Isopropanol alc.

NCH Software for 50 dollars CAN per computer is the cost for that cpu-life which is very useful to know.

https://www.nchsoftware.com/prism/index.html?kw=&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI6KTZqNjX4QIVqyLTCh2qUAC5EAEYASAAEgLQh_D_BwE

Yes to all here who are Interested in making aromas and perfumes I have made two instructables and will make a third soon. Here the second one. https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-Aromas-or-Perfumes-With-a-Soxhlet-Extr/

Keep in mind many of the Software material for your camera are not free. Expect to pay 35 to 60 dollars US for the software for a year use. Yes this is a good instructable but this is the missing part. I got it to work (I made a good digital microscope).

Well, Amercium 241 is cheap to get and you can get old smoke alarms on ebay for that or a smoke detector. I like this type of project. I bet other ore like Pitchblade which is 80 percent UO2 would not work since it not powerful enough alpha particles It 8000 cpm were Alpha can be 100,000 CPM in alpha.

Well, my brother into Horticulture he got a diploma in it. He likes planting plants so he is making Compost with peppers, citrus fruit which will be slightly acidic soil I assume (fruits), etc. Some soil but a lot of corn starch bags that will break down in 6 months-1 years.When the soil is ready we need to test pH and Potassium, Phosphorous and Nitrogen content.

Well, I play SNES type emulation sometimes Gameboy advanced, etc. Yes it tech illegal but only if you sell the game ROMS. I know Nintendo is suing the ROM developers but people are only giving them away for free. Is it worth fighting Nintendo? If they are Old games??I would have not gotten a PS3 if it wasn't for RPG roms on the SNES. Here some SD3 screenshots. Square never released this and if I did not play ROMs or emulators I would have never known about the "Second secret of mana" game. Very good game.

My Miscrope was orignally 240 dollars on Sale normally 650 dollars on Boreal Science. It goes from 10 x to 100 x so 40 mag to 1000x. I like to use it to see bacteria, and yeast with it.

I have a cheap microscope camera that I can attach to my computer and use it to see things under my Microscope. It was a digital type but that part died out (software). This could be very useful Indeed. I also want to add Polar gratings to get this: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/K-F-Concept-52-55-58-62-67-72-77mm-Slim-UV-CPL-Polarizer-FLD-Lens-Filter-Kit/322846292432?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3Da9c3971c445e4aac9b827b8535667bd1%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D323114264655%26itm%3D322846292432&_trksid=p2481888.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3A599a4fff-5f9d-11e9-b83a-74dbd18088cf%7Cparentrq%3A21e034f416a0ac88dadb1ed8fff43f8f%7Ciid%3A1

Wow, that very creative way of making a touch Lamp with electronic components. You can do this with a 555 timer too I heard.

Here a blinker with a NAND gate from the 130 in 1.

A quick update that this method is very very difficult and the metal of Mn oxidizes very quickly. An epoxy may help but it may tarnish the metal plating. It was difficult and I thought it may work. Oh well Onto new Projects.

Atho I don't use mirrors I use liquids that glow in the UV and different effects with Mirrors sometimes. I have used lasers with spinning cds too. Here a laser project with two-three lasers and dyes (Rhodamine B from Markers).Laser Shows!
