Nilered.ca is live! (for Canadians)

www.nilered.ca

Okay, so I think everything is more or less okay. You guys can check it out and if you want to get something... well it should work to purchase it!

 For any Patron that gets something, Ill try to add an extra gift in with the shipment. Not sure what it will be though.

The website is starting out with just Canada to keep things simple. You guys can be my guinea pigs while i try to get this all working. For any Patron who is not form Canada, please contact me thro...

My website

www.nilered.ca

Hey everyone, I have made a partially completed website here. Let me know what you think.

When I am ready to sell beakers, I'll only be shipping in Canada, but ill eventually include the US and the rest of the world.

Shipping costs are killing me though (updated):

For 1 beaker it is: $11 to eastern canada nad $14 for the rest.

For 2+ beakers it is $15 to eastern canada and $20 for the rest

Does anyone have any ideas on how to g...

Part 6 of the series will be posted next week!

Nile Red Beakers

I've just received my beakers and I will start selling them eventually...once I figure out how to. (gotta figure out the shipping, billing, etc)

I will be giving you guys some preferential prices if you want to make an order. 

More news will be posted as I learn how to do this! If anyone has any experience with this type of thing and wants to help out, I would love that :)

Citric acid from lemons.

Hey guys, no strawpoll this time. The next video will be the 5th installment in my series.

Christmas Special

Hello everyone, happy holidays! 

I've been slaving to make this video for over a week, I hope it was worth it.

Unfortunately, since I only finished it today and I wanted to post it to the public on Christmas, I kind of have to post it here and publically at the same time. I hope you guys understand though :)

The fourth in the series

We are one step closer! 

I might've forgotten a link in the description. Let me know if I did!

Making dibenzalacetone (REPOST)

Hey guys, this is a repost because the other video had some issues. I didnt include equilibrium arrows in the mechanism! 

Making sunscreen

This one is kind of a long video. Much longer than expected!

Next video will be P-nitrophenol (4th in series to make paracetamol).

Silver mirror and tollens

Hey guys, last video of the month...just in time! I messed up and will have to post the dibenzalacetone video as the next one.

Distilling mercury

Hey guys, I finally did it! It was only almost a disaster

Also, here is your separate strawpoll: http://www.strawpoll.me/11734622

Part 3 in the series

Hey guys, part 3 here! I haven't filmed the future parts yet but I will get on it soon!

Aspirin to Acetaminophen/Paracetamol - Part 2

Hey guys, this is the second video in the series! 

I forgot to do this for the last one, but please vote here: Strawpoll: http://www.strawpoll.me/11627792

I want to make 2 separate polls. One for Patreons and one for the general public.

A small preview

Hey guys, this is just a quick preview of the mercury distillation i did a few days ago. The full video will be up later this month!

I also psoted this on twitter and facebook

Last video of the month!

Hey guys, this is the first in the series (of probably 6 videos) where I start with Aspirin and and chemically convert it to Tylenol. 

Also, I think this video might be error free...but please let me know if you catch anything. I've been making loads of typos lately :(

Cadaverine

Hey guys, cutting it super close this month. Ill also upload another one tomorrow. 

I posted the video twice!

Hey guys, I posted the ammonium metavanadate video twice because it messed up when posting. I might have charged you guys twice though, so please make sure that at the end of the month you opt out of one (or both if you want, ha). 

Ill try to fix it on my end though.

Ammonium Metavanadate

Hey guys, I am not sure if you can see the last post I did of this. 

There was a mixup and I think Patreon didn't charge or something so I am reposting it. If it bills you twice, be sure to cancel one of the charges! I will try to fix it myself though,

Cleaning Phenol

Today we are cleaning some super dirty phenol. 

I've decided to also get an actual schedule going and I think I am going to try and get a video up every Thursday (not counting this week).  I will also try to get two videos a week sometimes.

Anisole

First video of the month. I am actually editing things at a more reasonable schedule this time...not all at once in the second half of the month!

I am going to try to get some sort of schedule going at some point.

Playing with some IR

This is the last video of the month. It was a huge effort to make this one. I hope you enjoy!

Trans-cinnamic acid

Hey guys, just getting the last few out! Ill try to get the IR one done and posted by tomorrow

Benzaldehyde from Bitter Almond Oil

Hey guys! This is kind of a slowish month, so this is only the 3rd video. Don't worry though! There will be 2 more posted before the end of the month. The next is trans-cinnamic acid by the Verley Doebner Knoevenagel condensation of benzaldehyde and malonic acid.

I am also working on a video talking about infrared light because I managed to get my hands on a nice FLIR IR camera. Filming it has been a HUGE pain though. 

There is nothing on the FLIR camera to mount it anywhere and...

Hexanoic/Caproic acid

Hey guys, second video of the month! I am super slow right now.

I am going to try to get a few more out before the month is done though. 

Blue Bottle Experiment

First video of the month, took long enough! I am going to try to post 5 before the end of the month.

Silver Nitrate

This is the last video for the month! There should be some cool ones coming up next month. I have only now gotten through my backlog of videos. I have been only editing for the last 2 months...I am kind of sick of it. 

I want to get back to doing practical things! I really hope I am able to distill my mercury this month.

A little bit different from the others!

Hey guys, well this video is quite different from the other ones...because I'm in it! I didn't make a thumbnail for it yet, but let me know what you guys think. Also, I guess this is a face reveal?

I really liked appearing in the video and I will probably do some more like this in the future.

Finally the 1-octen-3-ol video

Benzaldehyde from Cinnamon Oil

Hey guys, second video of the month. I'm sorry, I've been kind of slow. I am still going to post 5 videos this month though! I am working on some new stuff for next month, so be prepared!
