Element Series: Mercury
Note: If your name isnt at the end, PLEASE TELL ME!Hey guys, so the mercury element video is finally here. Before releasing it publically, Ill fix up a proper thumbnail and add more to the description.This video took a lot of work, so I hope you like it. Let me know if i am missing any links in the description.
Aluminum Amalgam
Hey guys, so here is the aluminum amalgum video.This video actually took me longer than a normal video to make. Just because of all the editing and the timelapsing.I was very on the fence about charging, but I decided not to. I still included names at the end of the video though.What do you guys think about "exploratory" videos like these? Are these worthy of charge? Or are they more "filler" in your opinion?
Making Margarine
I managed to edit and upload just in time before the end of the month!Ill fix the thumbnail and description later tonight or tomorrow.
Making nylon 6,6 (again)
Hey guys, sorry for the lack of uploads this month! I will be also dropping one tomorrow though.Also, a couple of you guys started supporting me while this video was being uploaded. So, you wont see your name at the end of this video, but it will be up there when the video is made public on youtube.
Dissolving Gold in Mercury
This is just a short video on gold amalgamation. I want to start posting short videos like this more often. I want to aim for more 2-3 minutes though.I won't charge patrons for these videos, but they will still get the benefit of seeing them earlier.It will not replace my usual 4ish videos per month.

Sorry for the late video! I'll update the description tomorrow and I think I'll also add a warning to the beginning to not try this.

Making Sugar of Lead
Hey guys, sorry this video is a little late. I had a last minute trip to Toronto. I thought I could still finish the intro and upload it on time, but I wasnt able to.Anyway, here it is! I have laryngitis right now though, so i am not sure if there will be a video this week. It all depends if my throat behaves.

Lithium Carbonate - A Bipolar Medication
Today I will be making a bipolar medication from batteries and directly from lithium hydroxide! I hope you guys like it.You'll notice that this video is the first ever that I accepted a company sponsorship. I tried to make it the least intrusive as possible. I will NEVER advertise something during the video. I will only ever do a fast shoutout at the beginning and/or a long one at the end.Also, thegreatcoursesplus (the sponsor) is legitimately a pretty good video resource. It is kind of like netflix, but all science and documentary stuff. I...
Separating Milk into it's components
In this video, I do a little food chemistry to separate milk into its major components.This month was kind of slow for videos because my schedule was all messed up. Now things are back on track and regular videos will be released again. There might be 2 more before the end of the month.

Oscillating Reactions - The Briggs-Rauscher
Last video of the month. Next month has a lot of great stuff coming!This video will be reuploaded later because there are some points that it is over-contrasted (bad editing on my part).
Making a Nylon Precursor using Green Chemistry
Hey guys, I actually appear in this one. Let me know what you think. What could be improved? I know the pacing and the audio in the intro is definitely something to work on.I bought a new microphone, so the next time I appear in a video, the audio will be a lot better.
Dealing with my mercury waste
This is kind of a 2 part series, because I'll be converting the mercury sulfide back into metallic mercury in a few weeks. This way, Ill be bringing the mercury full circle.
Cannizzaro reaction
Someone a long time ago requested that I make this video, and I finally did! I am not sure what the next video will be. I will leave it as a surprise
Final part of the series
Here is the final video in the journey between aspirin and acetaminophen! Next up is the cannizzaro reaction.
Beaker deal for Patrons
For all Patrons, if you are interested in anything, I will do my best to get shipping costs as low as possible. I dont mind covering some of the cost myself either.For a larger order, this is what I came up with.I currently sell 3x each size for $50 CAD (50mL, 100mL, 250mL, 500mL), so 12 total, with free shipping only in Canada.With a $50 minimum, I decided that for Patrons I will offer free shipping, no matter where you live (as long as the shipping is at most like $50). For Europe it seems to be around the $30 mark, which is okay.
