Making a mini moonshine still
The abundance of alcoholic beverages on the shelves of our stores, however, does not affect the reduction in the cost of these products. And a simple esthete cannot afford store-bought products. A simple design of a mini-plant for the production of homemade goods is proposed.
Device for obtaining “dead” and “living” water
Remember how in the old Russian fairy tale: in order to revive the hero you need to sprinkle him with “dead” water, and then give him “alive” water. Today, “living” and “dead” water is not fiction or science fiction. Of course, it is literally impossible to revive
Homemade alcohol burner
A homemade alcohol burner can come in handy, say, while fishing, hiking, or in the forest. You can use it to heat food or boil water. It can also be used in other various experiments and experiments. Filled with alcohol it does not give
Jewelry gas welding machine using ordinary water
Jewelry gas welding machine using ordinary water. Hydrogen, when mixed with air, forms an explosive mixture - the so-called detonating gas. The combustion temperature of hydrogen is 2800 degrees. Celsius.It is on these facts that this gas welding is based. basis
Homemade chewing gum for hands – HandGum
Our homemade handgam has almost all the same properties as the one for sale (it flows, breaks, stretches, jumps)
Unusual uses of aspirin
I am sure that most people use aspirin in limited cases. Such as headaches, fever, colds, etc. I dare to assure you that the use of aspirin is not limited to this.
Homemade alcohol lamp
An alcohol lamp is practically an irreplaceable thing for any beginning chemist. However, getting or buying it is not so easy. But there is always a simple way out of hopelessness. An alcohol lamp is not such a complicated thing that you couldn’t make it yourself. Alcohol
Ferromagnetic fluid
Ferromagnetic fluid is a fluid that is highly polarized in the presence of a magnetic field. In other words, when an ordinary magnet approaches this liquid, it begins to perform certain movements: it jumps up like a hedgehog, sticks to the magnet, rises
Removing flammable gas from water
The model is entirely based on Hillary Eldredge's patent, US 603,058 "Electrical Retort" introduced April 26, 1898. The combustible gas is produced by an electric arc produced by graphite rods immersed in distilled, potable, salt or
Making phosphor at home
A phosphor is a substance capable of converting the energy it absorbs into light radiation. The color of the glow can be different and depends on the light filter applied to the surface of the phosphor or its impurity. Photo phosphor is a powder that
Magnetic stirrer
A magnetic stirrer is necessary in every laboratory for mixing liquids of different viscosities. Now you can assemble a magnetic stirrer for your mini laboratory.
Lava lamp
Lava lamps appeared in England in 1963. The invention belonged to the scientist Edward Cravan. The lava lamp was a tall glass vessel with a colored liquid in which glass balls floated.
We grow copper crystals.
No, we didn't make a mistake. Not copper sulfate—you’ve probably received these crystals more than once—but real metallic copper.
Fighting flies (Velcro and all that)
There are many different types of flies in nature. However, the most common is the housefly. In rotting waste, in rotten vegetables, in garbage, the fly lays up to 100 eggs at a time, from which larvae emerge after a few hours. Through
Making hydrochloric acid at home
Although the sale of hydrochloric acid is limited and can be difficult to buy at retail, anyone can easily make it from polyvinyl chloride, one of the most common plastics. PVC is used to make wire sheaths, toys, and many household items.

The smoke generator
Today it is difficult to imagine a modern disco without various lighting effects - laser light music, stroboscopes, color music scanners, and it is also difficult to imagine these same lighting effects without the use of smoke generators. . .
Glowing bottle
Quite a sensational experiment on the Internet with a glowing bottle of Mountain Dew. . .
