    You should make X-ray goggles. I was at the dentist and had to get some x-rays done and I was thinking about how the machine they used almost looked like a scope for looking through. Then I thought so what if you got two of them and made goggles that can take a x-ray scan of an object and then display it on a screen in-front of your eyes. Of course I am not sure about any of the logic behind any of this but I thought if anyone could make it happen it would be you. Hope you see this and maybe see if its logically possible to do. Thank you for the Awesome videos!

    A lot of knife makers use induction heaters for knives since they don't need large furnaces to heat up the (relatively) smaller pieces of metal they work with. Gas operated heaters and torches also need to be refueled eventually so it is a bit more economic in the long run.

    ​@@nacnudsnevets981 To add to this - it's a lot more accurate in terms of temperature and repeatability. I work for a very large manufacturing company and you can heat treat accurately and consistently with a small induction heater. If you shape the coils you can also consistently get a variety of hardnesses on the same part (strong flexible tang and a very hard knife edge).

    Thats to prevent the fans from pulling in heated air into the PC board. I ordered a pre-built one and the video i watched said to do this. Of course it wont be complete. Ill also need to build the water coolant system and find a way to power it. I was thinking with a bunch of 20 amp laptop batteries, and wire the circuit so you can switch breakers on and off to add volts. My bench power supply aint gonna power this monster. You can actually make a heater for your home by just spinning a magnet near a copper coil, and hookup the coil to a radiator with a fan. Directly convert kinetic energy to heat energy on the fly, and its even more efficient than resistance wire.

    molten steel doesn't explode when it hits water due to the lidenfrost effect. the effect you are thinking of is that water explodes entering molten steel because of the flash boil acting like a gunpowder charge. it's a big problem at steel mills, and throwing a water bottle in the pot is like throwing a live grenade in. I'm not sure but there might even be some disassociation of the water adding H and O to the "fun" also, the mag probably stuck because it fusion welded to the steel

    Yeah! That was really cool when he dropped it in the pool. I never expected it to glow for that long, when it got under water. But the leidenfrost effect was indeed creating a layer of steam around the molten steel, preventing the water to get much contact with it and cool it down quickly.

    A wise mechanic said to buy cheap tools and then replace them with good tools if/when they break. This is the quickest and cheapest way to figure out what tools need to be good and what tools can be very cheap. It also comes down to how often you use the tool. A homeowner might be completely fine with a 10 dollar claw hammer whereas a finish carpenter should probably spend a few dollars more because his livelihood and comfort depend on using something that gets the job done quickly and consistently.

    How did you get those IGBTs to grow soooo big. Just Silicon rich soil or is there more about it?

    8:00 when you're trying to get it to explode, it doesn't work because there's not enough of steel and too much water. It's actually the water that explodes, not the steel. But to do that you need the water to become trapped by the steel to build up enough pressure. I used to work at a steel mill. In order to do maintenance on the crucibles, we'd pour out the leftover steel and slag in a smaller crucible which would be then emptied outside. One time it had been raining all day and I forgot to check whether there was water in the smaller crucible and dumped liquid steel there, the explosion shattered most of the windows in the hall....

    Magnesium does put out a crazy high amount of infrared radiaton when burning. Together with PTFE it makes up an "exotic thermite" that is used in angel flares to evade heat seeking missiles.

    very interesting! how many consecutive hours can it heat? I want to use it for a hydrothermal reactor (~12H of non-stop heating). do you think it's possible? THANKS
