Found this channel a couple months ago when it was recommended by YouTube after a NileRed video. I love this content! What a great teacher and also an attentive learner. (It was the "How To Make Mercury" video)

I could listen to him explain just about anything; he's very warm and fun in his communication!

Just found your channel. Seems like some decent content I could get my kid to watch. I'm going to apologize upfront for ranting in my first comment on the channel. It's not something I do that often. It's also not going to keep me from enjoying the content.

I did find one thing in this specific video somewhat troubling. As a glassblower, I must comment about the carelessness with ultra thin blown out glass. I'm sure you take good precaution with the experiments on the channel, but glass bubbles that thin should not be played with. I've seen fellow lamp workers inhale those floaty shards of glass, and the results are not pleasant.

Never new about Van dee walls forces and it glass related but, be careful with bubble trash and especially in the yougins. I yell at people in my studio when they make bubble trash I don’t wanna be breathing that in or having it lay around on the floor or on my equipment in my studio. And I’m sure it wasn’t a big deal but some didys might be good to protect your eyes from the sodium flare aka the orange glow. Especially for yougins!!! Also that’s a sign saying the glass ready to take aggressive heat! Idk what your college glass class was like and how in depth you actually went with it but glass is such a beautiful medium it’s where art and science shake hands
