Thank you very much! I take pride in both my fume hood and my storage. The way I store my chemicals is state of the art, email me (see my signature) if you want more details.

Elemental Scientific is my favorite. For certain reagents, their prices are unbeatable. HMS beagle and ebay are my second and third favorites :D

nice lab sciencehideout! I'd love to have a microscope and centrifuge like that!
and that sigma bicarb, don't tell me it's for neutralizing spills! :)

Lol, funny story about the sigma bicarb... That is actually a jar of peanuts that I ate, cleaned, filled with baking soda, and slammed a sigma label on it :D (Don't tell anyone else, and no one else will know, lol). For some reason labeling is something I am OCD about... The only sigma chemical in my entire lab is the tert-BuOH.

I am jealous of all of these labs… Mine is currently my back yard. Going to get tough in the summer when it gets up to triple digits!

Do you mean the sink? Originally I did not plan on having one, as I have a large lab sink and this would be used mostly for the cooling of condensers. However, when I turn off the water, a substantial amount of water left above the handle pours out. Because of this, I will be installing a small 6" by 4" sink shortly.

Hey I'm back! Had to duck out a while for braincrazies and work, but the good news is...

!!!I HAVE A LAB AGAIN!!!

its_sturdy_I_swear.jpg - 147kB

It began as an abandoned shed. Moving it was hilarious. Myself and several friends unscrewed it from its foundation, moved the foundation, and then got inside and Flinstone-ed it across the yard.

lab1.jpg - 123kB lab2.jpg - 122kB

I'm still unpacking and patching holes and looking around for shelving, etc. But it feels really great to have the space again; it was making me sad to see all my glass and my chems languishing in plastic bins, forming peroxides...

Hope everyone's well; looking forward to being around again!

Pentagrams are awesome and their compass-straightedge construction is fairly easy :D

Here's my lab, in the basement. The gray cabinet on the right was a server cabinet, and it serves nicely to keep dust off my glassware.

That's a cool balance idea using razor blades! Still, you can get an electronic scale that measures thousandths of a gram on ebay for a few bucks.

I do a lot of electronic experiments, such as high voltage lifters where a balance like that would still be pretty handy...




Some say Science and Magick don't mix. I mix them all the time and the explosions are legendary!

I ordered a set of gram masses from eBay today. I wish I could take credit for the razor blade idea, but some rascal thought of it who knows how many years ago. Centuries probably. I'm going to have to put a aluminum blade on one end passing through a gap in a couple of rare earth magnets. Thing takes forever to "zero" because of air currents. Mag field sets up eddy currents which dampen motion. I didna think that one up either *sigh*

*edit*

My balance NEVER needs batteries, nor do I ever wonder, "are the batteries low? can I trust it?"

to be honest, digital scales remind me too much of selling dope. Been it, no longer in it.

It's an enchanting station, you noob. For making awesome swords of fire damage.

My own lab is modest compared to what most people have here, especially now during the Russian winter, when it migrated into my living room (because everywhere else is damn cold). It's basically half a table filled with glassware and a wall cabinet with reagent jars. I also had a special acid cabinet, but it failed to migrate into the living room, and right now my acid bottles just stand on the windowsill.




Smells like ammonia....

I'm so confused, theologically. My periodic Table is dedicated to Shiva, I mutter to Athena all day long, and I'm going to a local Baptist Church. *sigh*

I don't figure anyone of them has a lock on the "truth"

It has nothing to do with theology. Enchanting stations work on soul gems, and those were made by the Ideal Masters. Who aren't gods, merely frighteningly powerful entities.

Once he figures out that he can use his enchanting station to make Fortify Alchemy apparel which can then be used to craft increasingly powerful Fortify Enchanting potions and so on, we'll all be screwed...

Got me some good "obtanium" today. Are y'all seeing a fume hood? The squirell cage is an induction motor too, so inherently sparkless.
