Nope, sheds full of power tools, a room full of my old man's electronics hobby bits and pieces, soldering irons, heat guns oscilloscopes and all that business, not my speciality that though, and the rest is mainly woodworking and metalworking stuff, quite a bit of space is taken up by the old (but certainly functional and useable) metal lathe. Really, really handy to have available if ever I want to construct any kind of intricate or repetitive metal parts for stuff.
And the chlormethiazole/tizanidine are both rx meds, amongst others. Although I could quite easily make the former, never done so so far, but its two steps from vitamin B1 (thiamine), cleavage with bisulfite/metabisulfite and then chlorinating the resulting thiazolethanol with something like thionyl chloride. Apparently the intermediate alcohol is active but at some 10x less potency. Considering trying the first of the two steps (no thionyl chloride on the shelf, and it would take both time, and a new mask to produce)
Getting more and more interested in bio work, I'd really like to go to uni, but I got shite grades in my GCSEs, no chance I'd ever get accepted. Kinda limited, as my school wouldn't let me take the higher tier papers, not sure if the place actually did them at all.
Although it does give me some satisfaction to have totally owned the shit out of their chem/bio/physics exams, although I'm quite surprised at the last of those, as I am not all that good at physics IMO, certainly, it isn't my speciality, dyscalculia out the wazoo stands in the way of that. Although I really would like to some day construct a small cyclotron, mainly with the intent of accelerating protons/deuterons main thing getting in my way is funding, as there is the need for some seriously hard vacuum in the acceleration/beamline chambers, much more than my current vac pump is capable of, a turbomolecular pump would be suitable, but expensive. They do sometimes come up for a few hundred quid on ebay though, and I could use my current pump to get it started, as a roughing pump.
Anything like that has always appealed to me, ever since I was first old enough to read and teach myself. I remember always being a bit dissatisfied in school science classes, as they never got into things deep enough for my satisfaction. My old lfa school was awful really, I don't think any of the teachers were specialist science teachers at all. About the most interesting thing (sarcasm here) they ever did was a teacher-led demo of iodine tincture staining of starch. When I got home after that I went and hunted down as much iodine tincture as I could lay my hands on with my meager pocket money at the time, and spent all night distilling off the ethanol and subliming the iodine onto an improvised coldfinger. I remember being so pleased with myself at the time, being still pretty young, and so pissed the next day after I got home from school and went to go experiment with the fruits of my labor, not having realized it was so volatile, and had evaporated, staining the everloving crap out of my reagent cabinet in my old home. Thankfully didn't contaminate everything else, sealed in containers, but the inside of the cupboard was stained with dark brown streaks and patches all over
Chlorine proved a lot easier, but much, much less interesting. And the smell, ew. Always hated the smell of Cl2 and chlorine bleach, although I find that of I2 alright, not exactly pleasant, but not unpleasant.
Scotchmist, isn't the underside of a motorway flyover a bit of a cold, damp, hobo-infested place to live?
and I haven't pushed it passed 500ug... you can go way further
just blasting deicide to get my evil on
