Patreon Preview - Gallium Thermite Fail

So this is the fail video of gallium thermite where i walk through the issues and problems and ultimately show gallium confers no advantages at all for making thermite.

Let me know if the video works, or if you would like to change anything. Alternatively let me know if this ultimately isn't worth paying for and i'll put in the stock footage library instead.

On a different note: I am indeed trying to recover gallium from the gallium infused aluminum, i'm just taking my time and carefully working out the video so goes correctly.

Hey, somehow missed this response for a while. I was mostly asking out of curiosity, because it seems a good planetary ball mill set up would open up a lot more exploration opportunity. I also want to get one myself and wish I knew which ones are worth buying. Seems no such thing as amazon reviews for equipment like that. Seems like something that could be funded out of the patreon money coming in now, but also I may be willing to fund some special needs.

A ball mill would also work on bulk aluminum. The objective with the gallium was to see if it could make it easier to work with aluminum. For the excessive expense, the improvement in workability, while significant, doesn't seem to justify using gallium versus using stronger mechanical means like a ball mill.
