On Blowing Stuff Up

This blog post is hereby dedicated to the idea and practice of blowing stuff up. Namely the tradition of 4th of July, and the production of Hydrogen.

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING YOU DO, NOR LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU CAUSE!

Recently, 4th of July happened. I had a wonderful time, and took well over 400 pictures of the fireworks. Unfortunately, Not may are actually good, due to the nature of the shots (Movement, dark, etc.) I did however pick out a select few that I thought to be good shots of the fireworks, or interesting permutations of them.

Also recently, I’ve finished constructing a much larger (than my previous attempts) hydrogen producing thingy. I had previously used two three inch tungsten rods as the elements. And before that, graphite sticks. These worked, but due to various factors, they’d either corrode, fall apart, or get strange insulatory films developing on them. This was obviously a problem. Thus, stainless steel. That’s what my new device is made of, and theoretically should be better. I have as of yet not tested it, so we’ll see. I’ve created a homepage for this project, and you can view it here: <NO LONGER AVAILABLE>. It is also linked to from the main projects page.
