i LOVE when a bunch of physics/enginering/math/stuff youtubers interact with each other, is always so fun to see that in the end everyone just like to learn and a good way to learn is sharing experiences with other ppl

I did NOT expect it to make that sound. Cute
glad I could help a little with an animation :)

Make your own bioplastic and use it to 3D print something

Edit: To expand on the idea, you could make PLA from ripe tomatoes to make lactic acid (fermentation of the sugar contained in the ripe tomato)(Bartkiene & Vidmantiene et al 2013)(Venschott, Hoelderich & Eisenacher 2023) but then you could use young tomatoes as a starch source as they're 20% starch by dry weight (Schaffer & Petreikov 1997) to make thermoplastic starch. You can then blend the two to make filament with different properties, depending on the ratio(s). Tomatoes are disgusting and what better use for them than 3D printing?

Tomatoes are disgusting!!

My suspicions confirmed, every technical/inventor youtuber I know just lives in the same dormitory and they can casually apper all in one video, and they go to eachothers birthday parties, and they have eachothers personal phone numbers, and they give eachother choccolates on Valentines day AND....

The plasma is called Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), and is very commonly used in semiconductor processing equipment for depositing and etching material from wafers. If you put the coil on the top of the bulb, the ring will stabilize because the hotter gas will remain at the top of the bulb.

I’m an engineer in semiconductor industry. You had successfully created one type of plasma (inductively coupled plasma, ICP) and it has been playing a central role in making modern chips.

The amount of collaboration on this video with the YouTube community is just awesome and impressive. Thankyou sir for the content.

I was an electrical engineering hobbyist from around 95-2010. Built tesla coils, modular synths, tube amps, etc.. (The usual). I was reading everything I could related to EE at the time, and came across these toroidal plasma generators. Everything was on individual websites back then, and I cannot find it anymore. But there were videos, photos, schematics. A lot of theory. He played around a lot w/ different frequencies and waveforms. He was able to control the shape of the plasma, much better than any of these recent tries. I wish I could offer something helpful.. But am mostly writing to ask, did anyone else see that website???? Remember more about it?

Integza pulled a "call in... EVERYONE" moment.

I absolutely adore the group geek-out over the plasma donut. That plasma sphere in a vodka bottle makes me think of ball lightning. Suggestion for a future video could be anything and I would enjoy you tackling it, but how about shaping plasma via magnets? A full-length collab with some of the other youtube engineers, adding more coils, maybe find someone who could create a flask with different gasses inside?

7:06 "I say the electrons are going nowhere, because, well, they're just oscilating." not quite. They _would_ just oscilate, except you have a diode there, which is a one-way valve for electrons. So one direction they pass through, but when they would move back, they don't. Like a ratchet wrench, the handle oscilates, but the socket keeps spinning one direction.

Instructions unclear. Accidentally summoned a mini-sun in my garage.

This is the adult equivalent of playing with fireworks...but way cooler and probably even more dangerous.

edit: I mean with the thousands of volts being generated, I would bet that there's some risk that'll turn you into a steak. It's still really cool though! Something cool Integza can try is to make is a lightning tube which is probably just as scary but still an awesome display of plasma.

0:20 ah it screams... Thats how you know good and safe wholesome science.

[kxmonster]

the ball of plasma in the vodka 8:08 looks way cooler than the ring but my guess is the ring is harder to achieve.

One of the best crossovers on YouTube!!

Wish there was more content behind this project…

6:02 and styropyro took that personaly

What I love the most about this vid. Seeing all my favorite YouTubers have fun together 👍👍
