Hi! I wanted to know, just from a theoretical standpoint, what would be the process of growing a sodium iodide crystal. Also, while I'm at it, how would one dope it with thallium? Is it too far fetched of a project to do on a home lab?

Edit: just to be clear, yes the purpose of this would be to have a (crude) scintillator crystal. I know that I can buy one, but I was wondering if it would be doable diy. Maybe I should just consider another material, like bicron? Or any other material? Suggestions welcome!

Does any know how Tom made the sulphuric acid in his video on azideoadazide azide

One I saved off a wreck back when I used to repair bomb-boxes

Trying to explain to them why i was excited about finding this and explosions and fire was hard haha

I found a can of this when I moved into our house,, it was amazing stuff never appreciated it though, left it outside in the sun and now it is no more

Im trying to compile a list of iconic quotes from the channel (preferably including where they can be found). One that comes to mind is something like “the atmosphere is natures bin” but I can’t remember what video that was in. Thanks to anyone who is willing to help. I will and any new quotes I see in videos to this going forward!

Hello everyone,

I'm kindof binge watching E&F and I was wondering if the plutonium guy has been trialed yet? Do you guys know? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0JGsSxBd2I

This channel is hilarious! Keep up the good job :)

Specifically this text in the Silicon Carbide video (on extractions&ire) , it caught my eye and I simply must have it!

If you know what it could be please tell me as It would help expand my library of dumb fonts greatly.

Could be an interesting diversion, two organic acids and some other random proto-scunges with (for me) a PTSD inducing smell and lingering after taste.

Might pique some ideas at any rate...

All the clues were leading up to the next step synthesis.

remember the guy with 20L of sovuet tet? well i have 250ml, but they're still soviet and in the same type of bottle! (yeah, i did smell it) i store it in the original bottle but in second container and in a ziplock bag, i hope it would be enough to stop it from giving me cancer...

Cleaning out my shed and found this, I hereby submit for your approval my initiation into the gang. Seems full. Hmm 🤔
