I accidentally made something pretty (with math)
Spherical harmonics + simulating shifting audio into optical frequencies = surprisingly pretty.
If I see comments expressing interest, I'll try to do a video about the math.
Also, Ameilia and I need some financial help. I'm on medical leave from my job. (Physical and mental health fell apart)

Sagebrush and Silicon: Solar Panels
Просмотров 1322 года назад
Building the first incarnation of the solar power system for the homestead. 400W worth of panels, 200Ah (2400Wh) worth of battery capacity, 500W inverter. So far, we've been using this to charge phones, inflate air mattresses, and occasionally run a laptop. At the time this video was uploaded, we were still waiting for our replacement camper to arrive.

R.I.P. Periodic Table
Просмотров 6702 года назад
U-Haul really screwed us over. My periodic table, and almost all of my lab supplies are gone because of their idiocy. Please help Ameilia and I recover. We're still going to build the homestead, but we've been through the wringer for the past two months, between U-Haul, GoFundMe, and the kid who sold us our replacement camper all screwing us over hardcore. Donations would be greatly appreciated...

With your samples and building a new table, you can find Americium from an ionizer-type smoke detector and way more samples!
Hi Zak. My sons and I would be interested in the maths.
So cool So good to see a video from you ❤ Dancing boobies 😂
LOL
That is great Good to see a new video from you.
i’ve been recently trying to collect the elements myself, and you have been a big help. i originally had no clue on how i was gonna extract any elements from anything and i thought it was gonna he hard and complicated, but you apparently only need things you might find in your own home!
I believe it’s an iridium alloy not pure iridium. Denso mentions alloyed with rhodium on their website. But who knows what the actual composition is
i really hope You, Amelia and Ganymede are safe!
Hi Zak. Using those chips looked nice in the vial.
Love the videos. Keep it up and thanks🎉
12022? This has to be fake
Holocene calendar. Take the common era year and add 10,000.
Iridium is more valuable than gold, it is an easy process……….You can find lots spark plugs.
Finding a place that deals fairly or handles it is the big...I deal in scrap and it's hard.they don't like doing the work. Proving it and they can't give u penny's on the dollar
Not all spark plugs have iridium tips.
This is true. I researched these particular spark plugs and found out that they do have iridium tips, which is why I made a video with them.
After go’ogling around, I didn't realize that Simmy Krotiel's Bigger Blueprint was updated and you can make it bigger even faster, yep, what Simmy suggested before was pretty good, but now it can grow up to 4 ins, I managed 3 ins myself and I feel like a monster lol
Cool!
Like it
I love your element display. That is just awesome
Just discovered the channel Im subbed !
What happened to your collecting the elements series?
Being homeless after the series of homesteading disasters really put a damper on things.
Happy New Year Son
I have pounds of ruthenium iridium and don't know what to do with it.
Idk, retire maybe?
How much did this weigh, I was looking the other day on onyxmet and Ir was €100/gram
I honestly don't know. I didn't weigh the iridium bits before I sealed them in the ampoule. My guess is only a few tens of milligrams.
its 150€ a gram , still cheaper to buy it pure than buying sparkys...
@@yaykruser I bought a little square of sheet iridium for about £40 about 2 weeks ago. Dissolved a few mg of it in molten alkali cyanide then somehow lost the rest of it 🤦♂️ I still got some alkali tetracyanoiridate out of it. I was told cyanide is the only thing that can disolve iridium It's very dark in colour considering the little amount that got dissolved. I was able to mostly separate by allowing the excess alkali cyanide to creep out of the beaker on its own over the last 2 weeks, it also formed a nice poly crystal the iridate being heavier remained in solution
@@SodiumInteresting Well, dont worry, got my first 0.4g bead of Iridium on christmas, and lost it the same day, searched it for hours and never found it😂 Then bought 2 2g pieces , that was right after the price skyroketed and the seller didnt adjust the pirce yet. Used one to experiment on, turns out its not as brittle as people say it is, it bent quite a bit before breaking. Later tried to remelt it with a HHO burner but didnt succeed, sold them both for a small profit. Did you get yours from that british Ebay guy that sells them as 5x5 mm pieces and 2 bigger ones ? I thought about buying some for experiments(wanna find out if it reacts with the halogens) but its just too expensive on a per gram basis... As for chemistry, you should be abke to dissolve it in many liquid salts like your favourite Sodium chloride or Sodium peroxide. I think I read that they used Sodiumhydroxide plus Potassium nitrate somewhere to dissolve it.
@@yaykruser interesting about those other molten salts working as well, I got the information about cyanide from the poor mans chemist. guess I'll have to go to the ebay seller again, it was one of those 5mm² pieces. I should have a decent look for it first. If it didn't end up going down the plug hole it will be somewhere...
may your periodic table rest in pieces 😔 have any updates on the new one?
Nice video
I've just started my collection however its not all that pure
Can you please make more videos
I want to, but it has become so much more difficult: Things went so horribly wrong at the homestead that Ameilia and I are currently living in a homeless shelter.
Congrats on 500 subscribers
Wtf
Hi!!!!
Hi there! Is there a maximum/minimum ratio of distilled water to sulphuric acid?
Technically, yes. In practice, just randomly adding a few milliliters of acid to a small dish of water puts you in the right range. If you don't need the nickel sulfate for anything, you're better off using "white vinegar" from the grocery store. It's safer, cheaper, and just as effective.
@@DancingRain Thank you! I am a scrap metal collector by profession but I'm breaking into metal recovery via electrolysis and chemical reactions. Currently I am trying to clean copper of oxides in acetic acid (10%) with the intent to precipitate out the Cu by introducing Pb. Then taking the resulting Lead Acetate and infusing with carbon dioxide to create lead carbonate, which I'm going to dry and package for use as artisan pigment. Trying being the key word, ran into an issue with sulfide contamination on pennies, turn my lead black. That said! Can nickel sulfate be a particularly useful reagent or is it mostly just a waste byproduct?
Thaks
Love the collect the elements idea, can't wait to see more. Ty.
How much iriduim in 100 spark plug
That's a good question. I didn't weigh the iridium I recovered.
Why because the …
What do you think of Epson Salt baths? I love them. Supposedly it's a bunch of Bull though. I still like it. Bubbles is too juvenile and plain water doesn't have the same psychosomatic edge. Yoj know what I mean. The funny thing is I saw Nile Red boil down Epson Salt and it's like 60% Water anyway 😅 Whatever. I like it.
Well, some absorption of magnesium ions through the skin is definitely possible, and in the right amount, magnesium is beneficial. Given that epsom salt is pretty much harmless (in the doses you'd get from a bath. I don't recommend eating it by the pound 😛), I can't say anything negative about it. Many folks find epsom salt baths soothing, and that's a good thing. It might not realign your chakras or rebalance your Qi, but soothing tired muscles and giving the mind something pleasant to experience are both wins in my book.
Nile Red's video was nifty. What a wonderful demonstration of water of crystallization!
❤
pls check the ir partical in gm counter...
I can make with things with home... like bananas
Thank you for making this video. Great job showing our little towns big spirit!! Happy holidays and Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 ❤!
What happened to your fingernails?
LOL! Black nail polish.
Good job 👌👍👏

I saw your comment. Thanks for testing this.
Its been a good time. So sorry to see this. I Wish you could be back in Carlton. Stay safe friend.
That is a nice PV set! Too bad about the cracked panel. I think I saw you connecting the panels in parallel, so the impact of that bad panel on the system's total output shouldn't be too bad. Still, I hope you can get it replaced, it will increase the output. Also, please make sure to secure the entire structure to the ground. You don't want an errant gust of wind to pick it up and flip it over.
Once the camper is delivered, and I move the panels up the hill, I'll definitely be securing them. The wind can be downright brutal on the mountain, but oddly, hasn't budged the panels yet.

God bless you ❤️ you got a good heart. Zak's my son.

When will you be making a video of what happened with the U-Haul? What kind of accident was it? Sorry I haven't been around much lately. Both of my jobs have had me working 16-18 hours per day, 7 days a week for months on end. So I haven't had much time to get on RUclips or talk.
My goodness, you must be exhausted! Hopefully Ameilia and I will be able to make the video about the U-haul when our replacement camper is delivered. We had originally wanted to film it as a "telling a story around a campfire" video, but it's been way too windy to have a campfire on the homestead. (We're afraid we'll set the entire mountain on fire.) So, when the camper gets here, maybe we'll format it as a "telling a story around the kitchen table" video. Cliff notes version: U-Haul rented us a death trap. Carbon monoxide leak, broken axle. Over a month of fighting, they refused to get us a replacement working truck. We had trouble getting another truck to rescue the contents of the U-haul. We ended up with two hours to cram what we could grab into a friend's minivan. U-Haul chose tho throw the rest of our stuff in the trash. Almost all of our tools. Almost all of my RUclips supplies. Almost every sentimental thing we owned. Even most of our clothes.
Very nicely done 😊.
Thanks
