Now that is what I call a home lab.
Hi this is my first post here. Been lurking for some time. I hope this video hasn't been posted before but this a true mad scientists lab. 
I don't know how to embed maybe someone could do it for me cheers.

The fuque overture is a nice touch , all that's missing are some burning drapes.
The pipe organ is really over the top , made me laugh. So , do you tie up your
girlfriend in there or what.

I don't like it personally. And that organ playing is ridiculous. Just my opinion I guess...

I have to agree; seems to big to be practical IMO, and everything is very, erm...old fashioned.
I also couldn't work with that organ nonsense going on behind me, too loud and distracting for me to do proper chemistry.

I really dig it, it's romantic. Sure it's old fashioned but the actual glass-ware is ground glass. Ventillation doesn't look good, especially having
lit bunsen burners with 2 foot yellow flames. It's cool but I don't really want my work-space to be much like it.

That's fucked up...  . They took like everything. What kind of people would do that
honestly? If they wanted the metal for scrap or something that's horrible but it looks like they took all of his glass-ware and chemicals as well...
Poor guy.
edit -
Looks like he rebuilt his organ?

I've put the link few months ago, but nobody seemed to care.
The lab is interesting, though I don't like the organ part too much. I asked the guy via YT about the corrosion, he told me it's ok.
I doubt the stuff plays all the time, guys. 
It would be cool to take a few creepy vintage Frankenstein style photos in dim candle light.
edit:
crap, I've just realized he's been robbed. Why on Earth would someone want to do that?

smaerd, that video was posted before the one showing the robbery, so he had only re-built it fairly recently.

That was a beautiful piece of art - probably one of a kind.

That was an awesome lab, far more beautiful than most labs I have ever worked in. One lab I have worked in actually looked more like a prison than a
lab building. I'll admit a little old fashioned, but most stuff I use now is (try working at low budget academic place, they tend to be full of old
crap.)
I like the music, maybe not every day, but for those exciting moments, as well as visitors, it would be great. I'm sad to see that he was robbed,
that really sucks, one of the bad parts of YouTube and FaceBook is the ability to see where nice things are and ruin them.

Actualy if we speak about working in this kind of lab, then i must say that labs in the Soviet Union midlle schools were better equipped , also if we go far away back in time labs like Ostvalds or Arenius workplaces also
had more advanced, this looks like alchemistry, nice, but unpractical. home lab must look like this:

plasticraincoat1 personal home laboratory
To those throwing crap about my laboratory.....I think your comments about my lab are totally inexcusable - especially since this website that you
have have made is al about promoting chemistry! I spend much of my time promoting chemistry amongst young people in schools and also on youtube
showing chemistry experiments. My lab is a collection of my life since I was 11 and of course its antique - but thats because I simply put chemicals
in lovely victorian bottles! However the chemistry is till the same and where on earth would chemistry be today if it were not for the victorians and
the arts. To make such bitchy off the cuff unprovoked and unkind comments I  suspect comes
from a deep seated jealous nature. You would do well to congratulate other chemists out there and not taking such a bullshit attitude to others
precious works.
yours most sincerely
A mclaughlin c/co plasticraincoat1
PS.Oh Hexavalent, and DJF90 and if we are still in the crap throwing mode as you cleary are, let me throw some your way- let me just assure you that
your own websites - are utterly uninspiring and boring and does very little to excite about chemistry. Mine however has let me travel to Japan and the
USA and promote chemistry by demonstrating experiments on national TV!

Mr bfesser you would do well to lear manners- especially since it does not concern you - or it didn't until now. Uncaring people like you is what give
chemistry ( and human beings) a bad name.

As a classical organ enthusiast myself, I have grown to accept that the majority of the human race just does not understand or appreciate organ music.
Music that is invigorating to me sounds like funeral music to most other people, and it depresses them. They often make weird comments about it.
You just can't take the comments personally. Otherwise you'll be offended all the time.
Classical pipe organ and chemistry are two of my most favorite things, and I appreciate the way the lab was configured. It was the kind of setup
where I would have felt obligated to wear a suit and tie before doing anything in the lab.
Anyway, bfesser is one of the mods, so pretty much everything is his business!
