Making bad glow toys.

I haven't been posting much behind the scenes stuff here, but I am going to start being a lot more frequent.

So for this phoho: For a video that I will post eventually, I made ZnS, doped with copper, which is phosphorescent and glows in the dark! I then mixed it into some epoxy and molded ...

Live chat instead of livestream

I had to stop doing the live stream because my internet is messed up and the video was too choppy. I am still doing a live chat though if you are interested! When i fix the internet ill do another live stream.

A delay

I'll be doing the stream on about 30 mins. Sorry for a bit of a delay

Last minute live stream

I'm going to try and go live in like and hour or so. It'll just be a fun Q and A thing or something and to test out live streaming in the new office. I'll post a link here when ready

The microwave plasma mystery

Hey guys, first video in a while. I got really delayed because I went to VidCon in early July and also, this project too WAY longer than I expected. 

Let me know what you think of it though and if you notice any mistakes or problems with the video!

The cleanup for the ferrofluid

Here's the cleanup portion of the project! It was quite simple because pretty much all the waste was relatively inert. 

Making ferrofluid

Hey guys, I've been working really hard on this video for a while now. It's still not perfect and there's a lot more work to do, but at least it works!

Also this is my longest video ever. I hope it isn't TOO long though!

Cleanup for heptoxide video!

Hey guys, here is the cleanup portion for the video. 

Also, can you guys think of any good title for the main video? I cant think of anything that would be enticing, without being annoying clickbait.

Manganese heptoxide

Hey guys, this is the first of the "shorter" videos that I want to start doing. Ones that are more points of interest and not necessarily an entire project. Let me know what you think and what other things you'd like to see me cover.

Also, I have changed the Patreon scheme back t...

I changed the charging scheme

I mentioned a while ago, that I was going to change the scheme back to per creation. I have now made the change-over, so you guys will again have to choose your tier again.

I think that a per creation system will in the end work for me. I did shove most of the benefits to the $1 tier though...

Gold video cleanup

Here is the other part of the video, where I clean up the waste! There were many ways that I couldve done this though, and this was just the method that I ended up going with.

Patreon credit check

Hey guys, im getting ready to render the final copy of the video. Let me know if i missed your name!

Turning old jewelry into gold

Hey guys, last video of the month! There is another part to this, that I will be posting to my other channel, but I havent made that video yet. It will be posted here when I do though.

As usual, let me know what you think!

Changing back to a per video

Hey guys, so please don't hate me, but I think next month Ill be going back to the per video Patreon format.

I really wanted the monthly to work because I thought it fixed some issues and let me give different rewards. However, I dont think its working better for a few reasons.

1) wit...

Patron list check

You can't smell metal

Hey guys, first video in a while. I wanted to get this out before the end of April, but it ended up taking me forever to put together. This one took some different audio and editing skills, and i definitely still need to work on that a bit. However, I still like how it all turned out.

For t...

Got sick

Hey guys, I ended up getting sick this whole last week. Worst sickness I've had in a while too. So, unfortunately, I wont have another video out before the end of the month. It will instead be ready within the first few days of May.

I just wanted to keep you guys updated! I really wanted to...

Last lights

Just finished setting up the last of the lights. I'm almost ready to do some small in-person demos and stuff in the lab. I just need to sound treat the room a bit to get rid of the echo.

Making raspberry ketone

Hey guys, this is a video that's been on my harddrive for a while, but I finally got around to putting it together. It was a bit of a long one. It did inspire me to get back into smelly compounds though, so we'll see what I get into next.

I appear twice in this video, once in the intro and ...

Done refining!

All that gold was refined and now I have this blob. It's about 81g and it's the most that I've ever held.

I want to make some small pieces of jewelry out of it. If you have a simple design that you think might be nice, please share them with me. Send them to admin@nilered.ca

Getting ready to purify some gold!

All the gold was sent to me by one of my Patrons.

A post that i made to my other channel

This is a little update for my other channel NileBlue. Its not exclusive content here or anything, but I thought it was still worth sharing here!

Patreon List

Hey guys, Im going to be making the final ammonium amalgam video today. Before I do that though, I just need to confirm the Patron list. This is for everyone who is in the $10 tier. I've included everyone from the old $5 tier, but a lot of people still need to switch over.

I apol...

Ammonium amalgam

So, i managed to get the video out before the end of the month. 

Let me know what you guys think of it. Also, tell me if i ever say "1886" in the video. The paper i referenced was from 1865, but for some reason i kept saying 1886. I think i fixed all the mistakes, but please let me kno...

Break done!

I'm working on the next video now, on ammonium amalgam. I hope it'll be out tomorrow on Patreon :)

Credits at end of video or description

I just had one question. For those in the tier of "credits at the end of video", do you prefer having your name cooked into the video , or would you prefer to have it in the description? Or maybe both?

Taking a break

Hey guys, so i have decided that I will be taking a break. Im not sure how long it will be, but it should be about a week or so. 
Also, if you havent yet, remember to switch your tiers! I made a switch from per video, to per month and a lot of people are still floating in limbo. For this ...

Might take a break

I've been wanting to take a small break for a while, but for the last few months, with everything being moved, I was barely able to take even an evening off. I told myself i would take time once the lab was done, but then that came and went and I just moved onto more projects. 

My next...

Finished the studio lights

I finally got some light in the studio. I made a miscalculation though and there's enough light that it hurts my eyes. I am going to selectively turn some off, and I'll only turn them back on if I need to film.

The new hood is offically in.

The second fume hood was the last piece that I had to install!

All I have left is just a few small things, like straightening the drawers. I'm so close!
