3:51 "If I was daring-or if I was Cody-I might be willing to do it." Classic line. XD
I'm feeling a little Cody today.
Didn‘t Cody actually drink heavy water?
@@Kleesmilie He did. And his gf too.
I loved the call out to Cody's lab!!!!
Instead of Cody's Dad
"If I was Cody, I'd be willing to do it."
I unironically lol'd.
Waiting for him to respond
Yeah that was a great subtle plug lol
ya i remember that episode. i think he said it tasted sweet
A friend of mine did some research on how heavy water slowed chemical reactions at a given temperature due to higher mass, and we wondered how much it would take to affect your health. Fortunately, we had neither budget, nor a willing test subject.
He's Done it.. th-cam.com/video/MXHVqId0MQc/w-d-xo.html
My high school physics teacher had a collection of short tubes like neon tubes, with various pure gasses which he placed into a high voltage display. He passed out refractive grids for us to look at the samples through, so we could get a basic understanding of chromatography. Most memorable high school class ever!
I am a retired electronics engineer/programmer and you do a great job at explaining the subject matter very clearly and I find your presentations very interesting.
Thanks!
I am a physicist and specially trained in vacuum- and plasma physics and therefore I can only tell you: This was the most brilliant precise correct and clear explanation of the matter I ever happened to see on TH-cam.
Yeah, I did my MS thesis on Whistler waves, and he's pretty spot-on.
I've been using neon bombaders all my life, got 5 20kv transformers and chokes
can't wait to see what he's gonna do..
Using O2 in an oil filled pump frightens me...
@@samsampere7605 Can you please elaborate on that. genuinely curious.
@@epheros9660 Oxygen gas in a hydrocarbon oil filled pump is an explosion hazard. For safety, these pumps need to be converted for oxygen service using fluorinated oils. Look up Fomblin pump oil. Don't want to see or hear of anyone getting hurt.
This man just casually whips out a turbomolecular pump like it's a common household item.
Best channel on TH-cam.
I left my turbomolecular pump in my other pants, otherwise, I would show it to you.
Yeah, although I think Ben from Applied Science has him beat on the number of cool toys in his workshop.
This is my spare turbomolecular pump that i have wrapped in kitchen film pvc.
@@JesusFreke Maybe. Ben does have him beat on "Cool things I made in the garage" for sure. The CAT scan build from easy to find parts that actually worked a little was the one that blew me away. It was only big enough to produce images of a roasting chicken, buy you could make out the basic bone structure. Oh, and pretty much no shielding for the stray X-rays other than don't stand there.
@@KnightsWithoutATable And not to mention an electron scanning microscope.. both a restored one and one he made from scratch (!!). He definitely wins the "workshop I wish I had" award in my books :). But both channels/workshops are amazing.
@ Tech Ingredients - I just want to thank you for the EXCELLENT quality of the content on your channel. As a totally disabled senior citizen who is home bound and can no longer afford the high cost of cable television, I watch You Tube videos for the vast majority of my entertainment. Your content is superior to 99% of the information that is available on this forum. Thank you for sharing the projects and processes that you undergo in such a well presented fashion that everyone can understand and learn from. THANK YOU!!
Hello there, Excellent videos. I'm happily retired and in my 70's, I used to work at the UofB in the UK designing and building scientific and electronic equipment and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Many people use such equipment to obtain results/qualifications etc but may not actually enjoy the workings of the apparatus. Similar to you I found my work fascinating and your videos are a reminder of how I felt before I retired. I'm looking forward to seeing more. Many thanks Chris.
There are two halves to equipment, half the fun is using it, the bigger half of the fun is building and testing it. ;)
His confidence in fusion being available in 5 years leads me to believe he’s building a tokamak in the next room.
@bulletsholes Except most of the research on fusion is done in tokamaks. Whatever tech is used to produce a usable fusion reactor in the future, it will exist thanks to all the research done in tokamaks. So no, it's not stolen money
A stellarator rather...
Antiath I think we will also see the X7 stuff in countries where there is not so much area of land. Also results are pretty interesting sadly currently scale is a bit of a problem.
All: I realize there are better and more realizable possibilities. I’m trolling for engagement. He’s obviously building something, what do you think it is?
Nuclear fusion is the energy source of the future - and will probably always remain that.
Ignoring that platitude 😉, I have the feeling that the unprecedented reduction in cost of renewable energy sources (especially solar and batteries) may very well reduce research into fusion because it might prove impossible to make profitable without immense government subsidies in the face of ultra cheap solar energy.
“If I was Cody”.... All of Cody’s lab yells in sulfur hexa fluoride voice
love this
Not to be crude but what color would a fart be?
I came to look for this comment!!
He said it before I could finish thinking it!
@@MaxUgly Methabe emits in infra red ... so invisible and deadly still.
I love how you explain all the reasoning for every piece of equipment that goes into a project. Also loved "Now if you want to step it up a notch." I started watching your videos a couple of years ago and nobody even comes close to your level of excellence.
Magnificent content! In terms of an immersive experience, you guys put Netflix, Amazon, PBS, Great Courses, the lot of them, to shame! Even when the giant content creators try and present something that is fundamentally of interest, they mess it up; they make it a vehicle for the presenter's ego or 'style', they FORCE drama even when the content is awe inspiring on its own terms, or they gloss over the details because they think the audience can't "handle it". Anyway, I was completely enthralled for the entire video! Thanks so much such enriching content.
I like that he explains it like i'm gonna decide to build one this afternoon.
J L this must be your first time here
EDIT: received the epoxy 2 days after this comment, I'm sure a coincidence but very happy to get it! Would have loved at least one email from them saying things were slow or something, but oh well.
Probably easier since they take orders and then never deliver or respond. I ordered 2 pair of the thermal epoxy 6 weeks ago and nothing. Emailed them many times and posted on their website forum where others have the same issue. I really like the videos, clearly since I tried to buy their epoxy, but am now fed up with no response. I don’t mind waiting if I know what’s up, but now they’re intentionally ignoring us.
@@hoganmchugh I think they underestimated the demand.

Love the Cody reference. He's such a hero.
Cody did in fact drink some heavy water th-cam.com/video/MXHVqId0MQc/w-d-xo.html
Cody's penchant for eating weird things, is what makes me think of him as what Wren would be like if he lived in the middle of nowhere and liked playing with esoteric substances.
Hey Cody!!
noice
The mentioning of Cody's Lab in this video warms my soul in a different way ❤️
This guy is the best. Rare example of TH-cam used for good.
Thank you!
Amazing content as usual. It's been said before: "This is what I imagined the internet would be when It was new."
And even after so many years, it's kind of scary how much of a spectrum there is. You could teach yourself the equivalent of a university degree online, or waste years on mindless content that has no benefit.
this is what I imagined college would be like "wrong"
I thought the same especially given its military origins and its backbone being run by universities and colleges.
Instead it was democratized and we got PewDiePie Twitter and Facebook
@@kagi95 Freedom of choice, my friend :)
Once the pronstar settled down at the bottom of the net, these beautiful channels were able to emerge.

I love how he can casually mention cody's lab and we all know exactly who he's talking about.
It's all one big family!
@@TechIngredients : As WE are, not knowing each other.
I some kind love this feeling.
Talent recognize talent.
i could see him building wiliam osman's laser cutter
I'm still convinced this is time traveling Cody's channel
The details in your videos are amazing. Like heating poly tubing to remove fittings, etc. You seem to think of everything.
Great videos! I really appreciate the information density chosen, and the super nice builds. Thanks.
"if I was daring, or if I was Cody" hah! I don't see a comment from him pinned yet, gotta go digging

@@fabriziodini5806 so basically sugar water
"hi, today we're gonna start a series of videos, on.... fusion."
you have my attention
Thank you for your love of science! I love your work and have been rewatching your older videos! You make a significant difference in providing quality education.
Thanks for being such a great Teacher, I love standing on your shoulders and peering off into a hopeful Future.
"So I hope you found this interesting"
Well, all I can say is that was brilliant. Simply brilliant.
Totally agree...a great presentation once more.
If this man was my teacher when I was growing up, I would've became an engineer. He makes everything so interesting and easy to follow intuitively
ex-act-ly...
Thats because he actually comprehends what he is talking about . Comprehension is the epitome of understanding and listening is literally just using the tuning forks between your ears ! 😂
I don't think we can push off the responsibility for an interest in STEM onto others people.

Thank you so so so much, man! The way you talk about things and your explanations are so incredibly interesting and understandable! Huge honor to watch and listen to you. I am a huge fan of your channel and love and admire the things and the projects you guys do. You are truly just incredible!!!
I like how much variety you bring on your channel from moonshine and diy speakers to jet engines and plasma, love it. Thank you.
This channel deserves so much attention! The content is some of the most interesting on TH-cam.
FUSION!??! IN FIVE YEARS!?!? I'll be back in 5 years.
Marc Marc You are right! So... share it with your peers, tell folks about it!
Thank you for the extremely fun and informative content. Videos like this add to our collective understanding of the universe instead of detracting or distracting as so many others do.
the wealth of topics you can get into the details of is quite frankly astonishing, professor! I'm looking forward to the next video of this series
Me at the beginning of this video: No way I'm gonna watch a 50 minute video about plasma tubes...
Me 50 minutes later: Is it over already??
I was just about to comment the same thing. Epic vid as always :)
Yup.
didn't realize it was that long ...
Just incredible how interesting it gets to be, even when he's just talking about mere plastic or valves.
It's two hours after my bedtime, Didn't even know it.
At 11:29 - the way I was taught to handle high voltage was the saying, "One hand in pocky, no get shocky!!" I had a good instructor. Great video, BTW!! Thanks!
Left in pocket, and touch with right only. That way if you become ground - current wont pass tru your heart!
Love the saying :D
You'll still get shocky if grounded at feet!
This was just awesome. It’s hard to believe technical content this advanced but accessible is even possible. Kudos!
Love your simplicity & effective communication abilities.
You always manage to talk like you actually know everything about the subject and have experience about it, and not like you just learned it yesterday. Very detailed explanations like behaviours of different plastics etc. Either you are doing amazing background work, or you just happen to know -everything-.
Keep on enter-/educating us. Thank you!

"Next we're going to introduce you to a series on making custom speakers from sheepskin and powered by a Tesla battery. It's going to be really interesting." 🤣
He's a very good speaker, organized and well prepared for sure, I attest to that! I have seen many smart and intelligent people who cannot present their ideas properly. To others, they look unintelligent although they are the opposite.
From what I can fathom, this dude is smart and well spoken. It seems that he did not waist his years gambling, he have a lot of experience for sure. In addition, it seems that he likes his job and he's putting a lot of effort and thought in the projects, rather than just copying others.
I Appreciate the Dude.

Without a doubt the best demonstration of plasmas in low pressure that I have seen.
I really appreciate the details that are included about the construction of the test apparatus. I found the details about different materials being used and how they can effect the level of vacuum that can be achieved to be really enlightening.
This attention to details is one of the things that sets this channel apart. Keep up the good work.
From no other channel can be found such a clear, cogent delivery of facts and fun. Always in the perfect amount!
Fantastic work as always, MP👏👏

"(Deuterium is) probably safe to drink... if I was daring (or I was Cody), I might be willing to do it."
I laughed out loud there - for those who don't know, he's talking about Cody from Cody's Lab.
Your precise command of the language builds a picture in words of what you are doing. Great communication.
This is hands down one of my favorite channels. Always very informative and interesting. I can't wait to see the next video about magnetic fields.
"It might be safe to drink if i was daring, or Cody. " lol :) one of the many smaller reasons i love this channel.

Global warming IS happening. Quibbling over the cause is like arguing over who led us into the quick sand instead of worrying about how to deal with an ever changing, and worsening, event.
It is not the first time this has happened. There were lush forests on Antarctica in areas when they were closer to the pole than they are today. With even higher CO² levels.
It is not the Temps that are the largest problem we face, it is what to do with all the people and how to feed them on the reduced land mass.

I can't believe I just found this channel. I love the builds and how educational these videos are. I also liked the casual Coady's Lab reference. Thank you for the great content.
Awesome! I _really_ like how you give materials info and purchasing info. It's so tempting to run down to the hardware store and get _all the wrong stuff_ but you prepare us to do it right. That's really nice. Thanks for the videos and all the great info!

16:24 Ah ah ah... After a full wave rectifier the pulses come out at 2x the line frequency :)

Great comment!
@@TechIngredients If the neon sign transformer is center taped and the center tap is at ground potential, you only need 2 diodes for full wave operation. Connect the anode of each diode to each of the outputs and tie the two cathodes together for your HV+ output. This way, you'll only get half the peak voltage out, but since your using a variac to run the transformer at a much lower voltage anyway, and you don't need the full potential the neon sign transformer is capable of, it's a moot point.
Another type of transformer that will work are the transformers from old oil furnace burners. these provide a constant arc that ignites the fuel air mixture. Though, i don't know if those are usually center tapped or not.
at this point when i see a video from tech ingredients, i just open it before reading the caption or looking at the thumbnail.
and what do i see there? an hour long video? about nuclear fusion? YES, PLEASE
exploring and discovering along with your videos is always a joy. The Best to you!
Such a badass video!! You are literally teaching people the basics of awesome science. I love the fact that you talk about all different types of things. The first video I watched in your series was pushed to me and it was on making alcohol. I was so blown away when I saw this video on Fusion from the same channel. You sir are one smart cookie. Keep it up!!
Wow. This is seriously some of the highest quality content on fusion that I have ever seen. I just watched a 50 minute video and I'm incredibly excited for the next one!
I watched it at 1.5x - with better production and/or editing the information density could be increased 50% no worries. Also, I hope the camera work has improved since this...
But the content we have here is absolutely tip-top. Keen to binge this channel.
“Today we’re going to begin a series on thermonuclear fusion”
That’s hot!
I am loving your channel.
You have a gift of explaining highly technical procedures to everyday undereducated people (such as myself).
I have a strong craving to learn as much as I can on such current and relevant subject matters as the ones you offer on your channel.
I thank you for sharing your wealth with folks like me, who look to expand their knowledge through resources such as this. You encourage fun learning which serves to benefit people around the globe, regardless of class, age, or ethnicity. Thanks again!
If only you had been my science teacher! I love your “bedside manner” as it were. Always comprehensible and understandable
Opens the video with a casual "fusion... thermonuclear fusion energy"
O.O
I'm listening, boss.
Great video!
You made a small mistake describing radioactivity: Shorter half life means it's *more* radioactive. Even the simplest tritium-powered glow-in-the-dark keychain sticks can contain multiple *Curies* of tritium.
This is why Uranium, even enriched, with a very long half life is far safer to handle than an equivalent amount(by weight) of tritium.
Thanks for bringing up the danger of radiation, of which there are several types - each with different properties. I'd love to know how much is given off by the plasma tube...
(The glass will shield alpha and attenuate beta, so building the geiger müller tube into the plasma tube - probably impossible?)
Uranium being only a weak alpha emitter is easily stopped - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium#Military
Tritium is a low energy beta emitter, requiring better shielding - hence more dangerous than Uranium - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tritium#Health_risks
ABCs of Radiation - th-cam.com/video/qjkTzk8NAxM/w-d-xo.html - highly recommended explaining the difference in types and dangers.
The Illinois EnergyProf channel has *a lot on this subject - it's sooo interesting* - not only on radiation, but fission/fusion in general.
th-cam.com/channels/KH_iLhhkTyt8Dk4dmeCQ9w.html
Btw - I got notified, I always seem to do. Perhaps analytics isn't behaving?
re: " I'd love to know how much is given off by the plasma tube..."
Ionizing particles are one thing, UV EM "radiation" is another ...
@@EgonSorensen There would be no detectable ionizing radiation produced. The acceleration voltage(of just a few kV) is far too low.
The tube is 100% safe in that regard.
re: "Shorter half life means it's more radioactive. "
Look up: Technetium-99m
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technetium-99m#Medical_uses
@@uploadJ - "Ionizing particles are one thing, UV EM "radiation" is another ..." - but both are still radioactive phenomena...
"Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a *helium* nucleus. Alpha particle emissions are generally produced in the process of alpha decay, but may also be produced in other ways." - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionizing_radiation#Alpha_particles
We all need to appreciate that our world has people this smart to contribute to advancements making life better in so many ways,thank you for who you are.
Thank you once again for stretching my gray matter and enticing my curiosity and imagination, making me smile while absorbing such great input.
Congratulations on 400.000 subscribers. One of the best channels on TH-cam that creates meaningful quality content.
"It's a beautiful thing." The best part is how well presented are the subjects. I recall I had exactly one professor as good as this. Charming to listen, to absorb the knowledge.

What a treat. So professional. Many questions answered. Thank you.
Very cool experiment and you answered many questions that I wondered about. Also, your description of the build and what products to use and why is great.
The projects really get more fun and frightening with every new vdeo :D
I love this channel more and more every episode. Just brilliant.
He's amazing.
Welly explained
I love what a classy person you are, you are truly a gentleman and a scholar!
I enjoyed every part of this video. I enjoy how you clearly put a lot of effort into researching each video to explain every interesting phenomenon so clearly and concisely that even a dummy like me can understand almost everything. Also how you explain the setup and materials and propose budget alternatives helps keep me engaged because even though I'm very unlikely to actually build this at home I can imagine that I could.
I've been subscribed for a little over a year at this point (I think I subbed around the time of the turbojet videos). I'm so glad to see this channel growing and blowing up like it should. It's truly the future that educational content like this exists on the internet for free and is as entertaining as it is.
Would be interesting to see how the supply voltage variations have effect on the plasma characteristics. Loved this one and looking forward to the next in this series.. Thank you for all the amazing content over the years and keep up the good work ! :-)
More electrons flying away from the tungsten cathode so the material will deplete faster. Maybe some more light...
As a technician with many years of high vacuum plasma equipment mfg and R&D ....This was the best and most thorough presentation I have ever seen.
Most of my knowledge of plasma physics in vacuum was learned on the job and by being lucky enough to have worked directly with several PhDs most of whom were very patient and generous in imparting their knowledge to me.
Thank you 👍✌
I love learning about any science. Thanks for your demeanor and sense of humor.

Happy to hear that!
This is just amazing, these videos feel short for us who love the content. Keep it coming!
This is some of the absolute best content on youtube. I genuinely appreciate how thorough you are and how much you care about the material. I also really appreciate you not telling people "don't try this at home" just because it's dangerous. Fear kills minds and exploration is rarely safe. Keep going.
Yep - my chain saw, table saw, bandsaw, miter, copper plating station, welding equipment are all dangerous. . . .
This is like my 10th video of yours I’ve seen and I’m hooked! I wish I hadn’t changed my major in undergrad from physics to poly sci! Definitely wouldn’t have had I had professors as engaging as you! Keep up the amazing work good sir ... and team!
Thanks!
Very good demonstration. You are combining tid-bits of knowledge, which many have, into a tacit demonstration. Which reduces/organizes/combines these "tid-bits" into a better organized theme. Hard stop.
Thank you for your efforts! You are reaching engineers, even old ones like myself.
-bill
Keep on doing what you are doing.
Safety note: The vacuum is a conductor and depending on how you have your power supply (transformer) wired, current could pass from the electrodes through the vacuum in the connecting tubing to one or both metal valves. For example if one electrode is also a ground and you touch the valve on the high-side you might get zapped. Don't touch the valve at both ends at the same time.
Cheers, Mark

Woow, this is really interesting!! I've been following you guys for couple of years!
My favourite channel!
Keep up the good work! 😎👍
Love the video and your teaching style is a solid 10/10. I've done my fair share of independent study... orders of magnitude above "fair" considering I didn't attend university 😅. I wish I'd come across your channel back when I was a starry-eyed nooby, but as a seasoned vet I'll say I appreciate how well thought out this is and how you cover the perfect amount of material. You hit all three key points in my opinion: you cover enough to satiate any fledgling curiosity, you clearly explain the inherent risks and dangers, but most importantly you leave a lot of the finer details just the right degree of vague. Someone with a passing interest will watch this and leave with a head full of answers, but to anyone who's clever enough to always have a head always full of questions will leave with ten by ten thousand more.
Seriously great work and I thank you for it, only in part because when society thanks men like you it's so often mistaken as praise for another. You have such an impact on the next generation or bright minds, my hats off to you.
P.s. and no, I'll not forgive the innuendo
✌😁🤙
I'm a new subscriber to your channel and I'm so glad to have stumbled accross it. I particularly like the presentation ie not sensationalised like some others.
Facts straight and true with clear, in depth and proven results.
On the subjaect of plasma, i was playing with and old flourescent emergency light and noticed the bands in the tube when running under voltage. I then tried a magnet and had similar results to your demonstration. This is the first time I have seen my 'discovery' repeated anywhere. Nice to have a technical explanation of the effect.
Recommending your channel to lots of like minded people here in the UK. Great work guys!
You guys put out some of the most interesting content, thanks for what you do!

I enjoyed your remark that the bright annular rings in the plasma resembled the supersonic shock diamonds in rocket exhaust. It takes an eclectic knowledge to recognize and connect such different phenomena. Also, the demo with the magnets was very revealing of how they steer a beam at LHC and other circular accelerators. Keep doing what you're doing (including the banana brandy!).
The magnetic effects from 47:00 did my head in. That's fantastical, amazing, magic and whoa.
