Just thought I would put something out there to see if people think this is good. Let me know what you think!

I thought it was quite good and would like to see more. The production was of good value, the music was well balanced, it was well edited and on
topic. Great work!

EXCELLENT VIDEO.consider me a subscriber (the subscribe button won't do anything no matter how many times I push it this isn't just you though it's
all channels)
Anyway keep making them.10/10.also there's a thread "chemistry diamonds on YouTube" where you should copy your link to.apparently your channel has no
content yet so u might want to add this vid to it.heres the thread:

Who, is that your own lab? Nice equipment.
I was wondering why you would put the wet "copper carbonate" in a flask, but yes, with a vacuum oven on hand that is the easiest way to go of course.
And an XRF? Very nice.
Are you doing mostly inorganic chemistry or also organic?

Hey everybody! I'm happy to see that everyone seems to have liked what I did. And thank you Draculic Acid69, I will be sure to copy the link over on
that thread.
I will try to answer some questions here. I do own and operate my own analytical lab and I do both organic and inorganic analysis. I typically do
material identification, failure analysis, identifying contaminants, and other product development work for various companies and industries. I found
myself always watching NileRed, Chemplayer, Explosions&Fire, and all the rest every day and decided I should give it a shot since I have all this
equipment. I am planning some organic reactions in the future and I will be using some of my other analytical equipment as I go. Hopefully everyone
here will like that as well. Thanks again! And feel free to ask me any other questions you might have.

If you do this commercially I think these videos could be a nice marketing strategy when you sell your strong points during the video's. You could use
this video without changing the video, only the title and the audience.
Showing people what you do and can do in a visual way helps a lot I think. See how people look at NileRed, Chem player etc. They might not be the best
(but good!) chemists, but because of the way they sell their work to the public they are now considered as the standard for some procedures. Before I
saw their videos I was always annoyed by people stating "the NileRed method" or the "Chemplay method".
Nice work if you get a generation to think about you in that way.
Where I do see an empty space in general knowledge is characterization though! Characterizarion is difficult for amateurs, but you can apperantly do
it! I think you could be a winner when you could correlate/combine your high tech characterizations with low tech characterizations. As a sort of
negative contole.
Your video and the structure of it is wonderful. I'm a bit afraid most people will wonder off next time when it takes this long to get to the
conclusion... I found it a bit of a thriller, but that is only for a very specific group of people I think Haha.

Always going to give the thumbs up to a video starring Tchaikovsky in the background!
Bmoore55 - 16-2-2020 at 13:07
I figured starting with Tchaikovsky was a safe bet haha
