19/03/2014 - Current Lab (Until I get my shed in a few months!)


I used to do thing in my room and some other stuff down stairs. Due to me getting so much new stuff (3 CRT, 5 microwaves, dishwasher, loads of components) and running so many projects simultaneously (Wimshurst machine, flyback driver, marx generator, hutchinson recreation, motor controls) I have moved most operations to another room with a big empty table and a few work surfaces and cupboards. I am still using my room and a room downstairs for storage and other work like the fusor and the tesla coil. I hope to get a big new lab soon. It will be a nice big shed with electricity and may other features!

09/03/2014 - My Work Here Is Done



Halflife390 1, microwave nil!

(First of 3 microwave tare down!)

Welcome


If you are reading this Im sure you don't know what this blog is about, well I will tell you.

I'm Halflife390. My main thing on the internet is youtube, my channel is a gaming channel where I do videos with my friends on all different kinds of computer games. But as a hobby I like to do amazing science experiments! With my big projects I like to make a blog about them and many videos. With my small projects I to do one video. With my small projects I don't put any of it online.

I have decided to not just do blogs about my big project but also do this one giant blog about anything I do to do with science. I'm always experimenting with things but only the good stuff gets put online. Making this blog allows people to know what i'm doing all the time.

What Projects Have I Done?

I have done loads of projects ranging from hydrogen generators to lithium experiments, giant tesla coils and nuclear fusors. Not only do I do physics experiments but I also do chemistry experiments such as rocket fuel and thermite. Below is a list of every blog and every video I have made about my projects. Remember, whats below represents a small amount of things I really do!

Blogs -

My Nuclear Project - A project to make a working breeder reactor. This is the only project I stopped mid way, I will complete this project in the future though: http://mynuclearproject.blogspot.co.uk/

My Tesla Project - A project to make a big tesla coil (This is my favorite project so far!):  http://myteslaproject.blogspot.co.uk/

My Fusor Project - A project to make a demo fusor, this is different to the nuclear one: http://myfusorproject.blogspot.co.uk/

My Flyback Project - This is my flyback transformer and driver, its also kind of a tutorial on how to do it yourself - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsX4zjnxXEk

More on their way!

So thanks for reading. If you are still interested this blog will be updated every time I do something new, it won't be really in depth of what i'm doing, thats what the individual blogs are for. See you later!
