Projects I am actively involved in
Metal casting
– Having fun with molten lead.
Food hacking
– Making mead. More ideas to come.
Projects I am interested in
Kilt workshop

Presentation center
Biolab
– I might learn something about those green or moving things.
Other stuff I sometimes do
Trying demo experiments I know from the internet.
Juggling (not related to Brmlab).
Demos
These are small (well known) experiments often done in school that I either tried or want to try.
Tried
Sugar in sulphuric acid – sugar loses water, turns black (to carbon).
Potassium permanganate and glycerol – self ignites, starts burning.
Cotton wool and superglue – this is supposed to start burning. Nothing happened. Will retry.
Liquid nitrogen fun.
Whoosh rocket – plastic bottle with alcohol vapor used as rocket – tried with acetone with mixed results.
Planned
A lot of stuff from
http://ilovechemistry.info/pokusy/
(thermite, methanol vs. ethanol in boric acid, elephant's toothpaste, …)
Mentos and diet coke – old, I know.
Granular Maxwell's daemon
Homopolar motor
Non-newtonian fluid – it was done in brmlab before.
Supercooling liquids
Microwave plasma
Glowing pickle
Slime – polyvynilacetate (glue) or polyvynilalcohol (better, but might be more expensive and not worth) mixed with borax (and water).
