Adrian's Large Home Chemistry Laboratory Tour -1

[rwcjaz]

VERY cool. I am a professional theatre set designer who loves science. I even used to play the organ. Someone needs to write a play to go with this set!

[st3v33100]

This is a very great lab... I amazed!! Thank you very much for this vid..

[CamoShoeClub]

You've trashpicked half your lab, redecorated an old workshop into a masterpiece, applied numerous skills into wonderful projects, and above all you're a father.

You're a great inspiration to me. I dream to some day have a place so awesome in which I can do what I love, while passing a desire for hard work down to my children.

[plasticraincoat1]

@CamoShoeClub Hi thanks for you kind comments - always remember when things seem a long way off or hard to achieve - men once looked up to the moon in the 50s and said lets build something that will get up up there and back ..... and they did! With enough time. money, faith and hard work we can do most things we put our minds to. :)

[plasticraincoat1]

Oh and the chandelier (lights) was found in a dumpster and was pure green and all I did was rewire it myself and clean the brass on a buff polisher) Just shows what you can to if you have time, and skills! It's all hard work but worth it. :)

[plasticraincoat1]

@cwuzzaman the actual rest of the building used to be a old workshop - which I have simply decorated- so this is by no means a millionaires laboratory - as for the organ ( it was being thrown out - YES! thrown out from a college in Oxford - I got it for the taking!- so as an ex-organ builder I was able to reconstruct it). Plumbing, joinery, gas,ceiling etc. I did myself

[plasticraincoat1]

@cwuzzaman HI mate... just so you don't presume..... I started collecting since I was 11, Im now 38 so that is a lot years of school and hospital closures etc. most of which you see was begged and cleared from old labs ( including the work tops and benches) except of course the nice bottles -thanks to internet and bottle hunting shops-

[barnis10]

I can't watch it... It makes me jealous ;D

[superkunismcflurry]

nice lab reminds me of the labs i worked in with the teak tops and wooden fume cupboards

shame my lab is now tufnol tops and state of the art fume hoods and the old lab smashed up and skipped would like to set up a lab but the laws are tough now cant even get a decent chemistry set now all the chemicals are very diluted

[plasticraincoat1]

@superkunismcflurry Thanks mate. The laws are getting way over the top - if chemists long ago had such stupid and tight regulations they would have never discovered anything. Most of which you see was begged and cleared from old labs ( including the work tops and benches) except of course the nice bottles -thanks to internet and bottle hunting shops.Plastic worktops are eaugh!

[cwuzzaman]

ok someone with a bit of money! nice can you make any of that in the lab for me!! money i mean

[TMoneyTeas]

Someday I will be a mad scientist like you and have a menacing looking organ in my home lab so I can play it when I have created Frankenstein on a dark and stormy light. You, my friend, are purely awesome. I applaud you.

[plasticraincoat1]

@TMoneyTeas Thanks mate! :0) - life has to be fun and creative there are too many people out there that are not creative and scientific. D'Vinchi was of course not one of them! Enjoy and Bless you!

[klj2503]

Droooooling !

[FaceOfChemistry]

WOW! mysterious looking lab. Impressive

[plasticraincoat1]

@FaceOfChemistry Thanks - I also enjoy your videos - keep up the good work! :)

[Ben1596]

that is awsome Im drooling

[plasticraincoat1]

@Ben1596 Anytime you want to visit just say :)

[plasticraincoat1]

Thanks anytime you want visit just say :)

[Ben1596]

Thanks for offering, I keep that in mind if I'm ever in the UK.

[steveu235]

It is so sureal I think it's fake

[XDecagraphX]

I feel inferior >_>

This is too epic for me......I need an asprin or some pie....

[plasticraincoat1]

Bless you all for your nice comments... anyone would be most welcome for a real tour

[unsub919]

That is incredible! I totally get it. A temple of natural philosophy.The elaborate ad beautiful glassware ,chemicals and scientific gear in a setting where you can appreciate their aesthetic qualities and hopefully be inspired by them while using them fr their practical scientific purpose. A lab is like a church to me. Watching a supersaturated solution suddenly give birth when a tiny crystal is dropped in is like seeing a miracle.

[plasticraincoat1]

@unsub919 Bless you - I know just where you are in your minds eye. Chemistry should be beautiful!

[theabh101]

It's amazing my dream lab

[tinyjoker666]

Jesus man you even made it look villainous.........

[MrTechGuy1995]

What is that music called? Oh and nice lab by the way, very impressive. Reminds me of the good old chemistry when people were still trying to figure things out!

[MichaelFleming2011]

how much did all the lab cost??

[Revelde20]

god !!! that's an amazing home lab! you should be doing some serious research on this lab!

[marcuspinson]

the combination of religion and nitric acid (thats never gone wrong before) LOL jk but in all seriousness this is very kool almost makes me want to go back to church

[mario8401]

WtF is this shit ? lab in church ?

[rogeryermaw]

you magnificent bastard! i am envious but thank you for showing!

[mrelectronicsdude]

I think your lab is excellent!

How long have you been collecting?

I admire what you have done, encourages me to keep going with my projects.

I have a small lab but not the great size of yours.

Thank you for sharing it with us :-)

[aaronjhard]

Amazing just amazing,, best ive seen !!!

[purplemutantas]

That's amazing! It has a nice mad scientist vibe. You even have a Van de Graaff generator AND a tesla coil! The only thing missing is a jacobs ladder and a short lab assistant who's only words are "yess masster"

I can't get over just how awesome and beautiful your lab is.

[2Lazy2ThinkOfSomthin]

Can't help but to salivate over the multiple kilogram jar of silver nitrate.. Must be 2000.00 dollars invested in that alone and each jar perhaps 200 dollars at least. I admire your taste sir, just wish I had the capital to make a lab as exuberant as yours. Good day.

[plasticraincoat1]

@2Lazy2ThinkOfSomthin Hi it was collected over a number of years and im in fact very economic when it comes to glass jars etc . i have been a collector since I was 11 when I had my first chemistry set - of which i must post up a photo history of. Thanks for your comments and interest. :)

[evanperryg]

EPIC

(my lab sucks- right now it's a few gladware containers and various chemicals I found around the house and in a few heavy duty batteries)

[hinohino1]

What is this lab in your home?

[DJFamou5]

@hinohino1 lol xD

[AngilasGuy]

I was jealous the moment the video started.

.....Then I saw the pipe organ. Christ I am seriously envious.

[vamjok]

its just a personal working habit. i love lots of free space around my experiment setup in the hood.

[AmericanBornChemist]

How much did this all cost???

Nice organ, its a good touch

[AmericanBornChemist]

Its Beautiful, and the organ in the back is the best touch

[Theroomisspinning1]

OMFG this lab is BEAUTIFUL!

(kinda reminds me of a mad scientist!;D)

[plasticraincoat1]

You are very wrong ....its not too crowded or dangerous .... I do lots and lots of experiments here, all safely! what would be the point of such a lab if one could not do experiments in it?

[plasticraincoat1]

you are very wrong ....its not to crowded or dangerous .... i do lots and lots of experiments here, all safely!

[2Lazy2ThinkOfSomthin]

I agrees

[vamjok]

very nice, but a bit too crowded and dangerous to do any sort of experiment. i admire your effort to empty all those chemical from commercial packing into those ancient looking glass container. goodness...

[superkunismcflurry]

nice lab lot of old reagent bottles very cool place

[kuro96inlaila]

seeing this made me jealous!

you have a very beautiful lab!

[TheLaborant2]

very scary:D but the lab is realy beautiful, like ancient lab. Organ pipes makes all together a litle bit creapy:D

[2Lazy2ThinkOfSomthin]

I just had a nurd-gasm.

[thefireisfun123]

how long did it take you to put together this amazing chemistry haven?

[mewrox99]

That is the most amazing home lab I have ever seen!

[olympicfan2]

The most beautiful lab on earth :D

[TurnerIT]

BTW i''ve falllen in love with that place, is that your house too?? if it is amazing!!!!

[TurnerIT]

Why is it necessary to live out in the woods somewhere in a church with bomb making equipment? I mean you could be killing people and hacking them up and putting them in a bath tub full of sulfuric acid
