Nice! A clearly flexible and useful lab that looks like a nice place to work in.

Be careful about storing food items with lab equipment, though.

The cokes are old collectables back when my FiL thought they would be worth money. As old as they are they are probably as dangerous as anything else in the pics to consume :) I never eat or drink in my lab, safety first in all.

i'm relieved to hear you don't have any food items lying around, at least i know you're not a 'cook' ;p

Nice lab hex, I wish my lab could stay that clean.

Unfortunately, my basement is a "working" basement, with my car being restored back behind my chemical shelf, a wood-stove that is used, (keeps my fan working in BOTH seasons), and with the wood comes tons of Dust and Dirt (and the occasional large wolf spider, one which I swear tried to attack me, hiding in my ground glassware drawer), plus the woman's car and the mower and other garage implements. More of a garage / basement, than a basement.

The only good part of this type of arrangement is when accidents happen (like the overproduction of chlorine gas), it's less of an issue than if it was a finished basement :)




A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?

Labconco Fumehood


Latest addition to my "garage lab". It has a built-in vent fan.

I just had to cut a hole in my roof to install 6 inch green sewer PVC straight up through the hole.

Bought it off Ebay for $250 and $280 to ship.

Used black poly floor runner from Lowes over the table to form a tight seal between the table top and bottom of the fumehood.

I don't know how I got along without it - did all my reacts outside. Not fun when it was raining.

I have not seen the back yard of my house since I installed this essential piece of lab equipment.

There you go.

Got another 3 of those lovely pieces. I was lucky enough to pick them up at ridiculous prices, a new one of that type is usually 500 EUR and up.

Person: So, you like chemistry, eh?

Me: Yeah, I study chemistry. I also have a private chemistry lab... I've used way too much money on that!

Person: OMG I love Breaking Bad! Can you make me some meth?? Hehehe!

Me: OH WOW HA HA HA! YOU'RE SUCH A FUNNY GUY, REALLY, I NEVER HEAR THAT JOKE FROM OTHER PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE BREAKING BAD TOTALLY ISN'T A POPULAR SHOW AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT HOW REWARDING CHEMISTRY CAN BE WITHOUT MAKING ILLICIT DRUGS, RIGHT? OH GOD YOU'RE SO CLEVER AND FUNNY, OH BTW, ARE YOU BLACK?? YOU MUST LOVE STEALING CARS, RIGHT?? HA HA HA! LOOK, I WAS FUNNY, JUST LIKE YOU!

Deleted pictures that were kindly shared by Waffles SS showing his very nice legitimate business. Apparently illicit drug manufacture is so deeply implanted into some peoples minds that they cannot see pictures of industrial chemical manufacturing equipment without immediately thinking of the latest television show they saw something similar in which demonizes it.

Sad you had to remove them Waffles, I am glad I was able to see them before they were removed though, thanks for sharing.

I don't see anyone accusing you of manufacturing illicit substances - all I can see is people saying they're fed up with it!
