Make your own bioplastic and use it to 3D print something Edit: To expand on the idea, you could make PLA from ripe tomatoes to make lactic acid (fermentation of the sugar contained in the ripe tomato)(Bartkiene & Vidmantiene et al 2013)(Venschott, Hoelderich & Eisenacher 2023) but then you could use young tomatoes as a starch source as they're 20% starch by dry weight (Schaffer & Petreikov 1997) to make thermoplastic starch. You can then blend the two to make filament with different properties, depending on the ratio(s). Tomatoes are disgusting and what better use for them than 3D printing? Tomatoes are disgusting!!

i LOVE when a bunch of physics/enginering/math/stuff youtubers interact with each other, is always so fun to see that in the end everyone just like to learn and a good way to learn is sharing experiences with other ppl

My suspicions confirmed, every technical/inventor youtuber I know just lives in the same dormitory and they can casually apper all in one video, and they go to eachothers birthday parties, and they have eachothers personal phone numbers, and they give eachother choccolates on Valentines day AND....

I absolutely adore the group geek-out over the plasma donut. That plasma sphere in a vodka bottle makes me think of ball lightning. Suggestion for a future video could be anything and I would enjoy you tackling it, but how about shaping plasma via magnets? A full-length collab with some of the other youtube engineers, adding more coils, maybe find someone who could create a flask with different gasses inside?

*giggles at the magnets and coil making the LED excited*

The plasma is called Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), and is very commonly used in semiconductor processing equipment for depositing and etching material from wafers. If you put the coil on the top of the bulb, the ring will stabilize because the hotter gas will remain at the top of the bulb.

7:06 "I say the electrons are going nowhere, because, well, they're just oscilating." not quite. They _would_ just oscilate, except you have a diode there, which is a one-way valve for electrons. So one direction they pass through, but when they would move back, they don't. Like a ratchet wrench, the handle oscilates, but the socket keeps spinning one direction.

Your content is always so fun. Thank you!

The amount of collaboration on this video with the KZfaq community is just awesome and impressive. Thankyou sir for the content.

Instructions unclear. Accidentally summoned a mini-sun in my garage.

Loved all the guests, especially from smarter everyday, can't wait to finish my first project and collaborate with other KZfaqr tinkerers and inventors

Nice collab a lot of my fav creators all at once crazy good

I was an electrical engineering hobbyist from around 95-2010. Built tesla coils, modular synths, tube amps, etc.. (The usual). I was reading everything I could related to EE at the time, and came across these toroidal plasma generators. Everything was on individual websites back then, and I cannot find it anymore. But there were videos, photos, schematics. A lot of theory. He played around a lot w/ different frequencies and waveforms. He was able to control the shape of the plasma, much better than any of these recent tries. I wish I could offer something helpful.. But am mostly writing to ask, did anyone else see that website???? Remember more about it?

Make a light saber like the one from Alex’s Lab

Bros doing a big full on multi youtuber collab

You got the whole band together for this one! Love it!

One of the best crossovers on KZfaq!! Wish there was more content behind this project…

What I love the most about this vid. Seeing all my favorite KZfaqrs have fun together 👍👍

I would love to see more videos on plasma in general! It was a very interesting video! Keep it up

I was missing @Veritasium in that mash-up! So fun to see collabs like this! Also that's the best way of killing a tomato I've seen so far, keep up the good work!

This is the adult equivalent of playing with fireworks...but way cooler and probably even more dangerous. edit: I mean with the thousands of volts being generated, I would bet that there's some risk that'll turn you into a steak. It's still really cool though! Something cool Integza can try is to make is a lightning tube which is probably just as scary but still an awesome display of plasma.

Love your content Integza! I would love to see you holding some large plasma tubes on a base you can stand on. Thanks!

Collaborations like this on KZfaq is basically science exiting the controlled labs and entering the masses. A lot of these phenomena might as well be magic for a lot of us, but people like Joel provide explanations that bring it down to earth. Well done.

Nikola Tesla preformed many plasma experiments. In days before internet, I remember seeing a sketch in a book describing a similar 'plasma ball' setup. Unfortunately I don't think there is any actual photos, mostly sketches and stories, as demos where mostly private in his lab. Public displays tended to be grander performances utilizing oversized equipment. FYI: another way of making plasma is placing two grapes just barely touching in a microwave. The microwaves get trapped in the grapes going around, but focus/concentrate where grapes touch. Why happens is related to the index of refraction, grape diameter and index of refraction between air and grape juice. Jello would work too, if similar sized round balls. Science can be so enlightening!

I have made oscillators for audio, up to very high radio frequencies, including into the GHz range for radar use, and some of them were used to stimulate florescent bulbs to glow. I never made one to cause it to bagel or pringle, but then I never used an oscillator to stimulate a large globe of gas to glow! But my favorite glow oscillators didn't use the terminals to excite the gas to glow, but used the transformer action to stimulate the gas to glow, but the loss of power was large. But I wouldn't say that the glow was a plasma, as it wasn't very high temperature, as it didn't heat up the florescent tube very hot. But I was just trying to make the tube glow, and I kept the power low, especially because I didn't want to get the FCC involved!

This episode is like the best, so many awesome people and the story at the end XD, perfect.

You are great - I was shocked not only by the phenomenon itself, but because you just put together opinions of all the guys I follow on the KZfaq - EBoom, Plasma, and so on...

Maybe get all the guys together to make a bigger version of this plasma Donut. Seems like some of you already have bigger components and assemblies of tesla coils. Seeing this on a large scale would be amazing!

What a wild hair style, it looks like some dead animal was glued to his scalp

Seeing a bunch of my favorite you tubers collectively geeking out together is a wonderful wholesome experience. Thanks Joel :)

Very cool to see BackMac meet you guys.

Make a Tesla Coil

A similar principle is used in some of the lamps used in absorption spectroscopy for analytical chemistry

Hi Joel! Amazing to see the collab you brought with this video!! Are you attending Open Sauce again this year? My idea for a video... Why don't you try to create a "magnet waterfall" so you can harvest the energy of many magnets passing through a coil? I think you can have them inside a hose, and you just need to have spacers and pump a liquid (by hand, probably) to get everything in motion

hahah ohhh man this is so awesome, i love how you brought everyone into the vid, as soon as mehdi showed up I was like "Oh dang the whole gangs in it now!"

I really liked the video it was a great into to your channel, I plan on going back to watch some others from you now I always love finding a new science youtuber. A fun future video might be taking the orb of plasma trick he did in a vodka bottle and try to scale it up to plasma circling a room through a tube. Looked like he had some wires coiled around the bottle and a controller of some kind to move the current and plasma around. Think train around a room but plasma orb instead.

New Topic* Thank you Joel, I have just discovered ur channel & love it! It's so refreshing to see such u enthusiastic about technology! I think a fascinating (& Challenging) topic is battery technology, we have come so far yet it seems the biggest drawback & challenge is power, Can we make batteries lighter, smaller and longer lasting? You may stumble across a solution that has the rest of the world blocked with advances in this technology and sometimes a simple solution can be found with enthusiastic developers like yourself! Keep up the great work, Thank you Joel! Regards Bob

I really enjoy your videos about jet engines. It would be cool to see you talk about scramjets

dude i love all of the creators taking rounds mesmerized by it. More!

hey first of all, this isn't about the TOROID PLASMA REACTOR. I'm a passionate learner of rocket science who just got introduced to this field. I noticed that you are trying to make rocket engines with can produce a lot of thrust. After some observations on your Video, I came up with some suggestions. They are: 1. you can try a rocket with de Laval nozzle which has a decently minimized combustion chamber. This can increase the pressure inside the chamber so high that your engine can produce a lot of thrust. 2. you mostly use 3d printing to produce a identical model of a rocket engine, you can use some of the cheap metal 3d printers available in the market to print metal parts. this can reduce your waiting time and effort for a rocket. 3. I kinda felt that you have a good connection with peoples who are intensely working in particular fields like electronics and rocket science. I suggest that the knowledge you gain from them can be useful for others who can't get in contact with them easily, so I wish that you can record them and post it as documentaries to gain knowledge for learners. Hoping that these suggestions will be heard, thanks for giving us such knowledgeable contents continuously

You should definitely do more collaborations with other tech/science youtubers, it's very fun to watch.

Remember the day when Integza would just make a random sponsor segment even if he didn't have one, classic those segments always made me laugh they are just gold!! I love where you have gone Integza you 100% brought Rockets into a DIY understanding for me and showed that it is not a unattainable source of power, it can be simple but also very very complex and various too almost seems like you build one and the next if build the same version it still may not run the same. " It just rocket(s) {science}" instead of "At least it's not as hard as rocket science" AI: is a famous quote from a science fiction movie. It means that something is not as difficult as it sounds.

This is awesome! A video on generating power via gravity e.g. boulders on mountains, sea water into artificial empty spaces etc. would be cool!

Integza pulled a "call in... EVERYONE" moment.

I've never seen so many awesome creators in one video

Exciting video. You could make a new video about the ionic wind (lifter) propelling the small aircraft when put on its wings.

Great collaboration!

it'd be neat to see some stuff about precession, like with bikes how an engine spinning one way would induce wheelies and then spinning the other would reduce, but at the same time precession would also aid steering one way and hinder steering the other, and i guess aid leaning in one way and hinder leaning in the other?. seeing how that actually works in practice would be neat

Hi , i have a question around 6:05 in the video you say its not impossible for a plasma ring to be formed in atmospheric air so I was wondering would this effect be possibly what gets seen over the LHC as electro magnets are a big part of it . I am sorry if this seems a silly question , I'm not really educated in this subject and am trying to get a better understanding of everything . Thanks to anyone that can help. This was a really interesting video and i look forward to going through your back catalogue , new sub here

I think for the next video it would be great to see you explore the possibilities of anti gravity and rotating magnets for locking and lifting things, I predict great advances in relation to this approach for magnets in the furure. Thanks for your videos, they mean a lot to me

I think it would be very cool if you made one of these that worked in open air, it definitely wouldn’t be safe and I’m not sure how doable it is, but it would be cool. Or, there was a comment on your previous video that mentioned a nitroglycerin powered thruster. That would also be very cool to see

Suggestion for future video: make one strong enough to ionize air or work with a seed from a spark plug or that gun and test ramjet burn style with a flame retainer retaining the plasma in a toroidal vortex of air, possibly spark pulsing and releasing somewhat self-sustaining plasma rings out the exhaust. If you could get that excited ring to rotate from the inside to the outside to the inside like the vortexes made by the trash can vortex cannons, you'll get the stuff helios is using in their fusion pulse generator. Getting that outside to inside rotation to go faster would induce a greater internal magnetic field within the plasma that will hold it together and denser. If you can get that effect to be strong enough you could have a fusion air breathing engine or make something that looks similar to the star wars stun rings. (Which might be in lore, plasma rings: using both the contained current and thermal shock to stun people.)

Pulling all my favorite youtubers into one video for this astonishing phenomenon makes me happy to be alive!

Could you please make another video showing us each step on how to build one of these? We would all love to know!!

As suggested below this is a form of ICD - Inductively coupled discharge. Out of interest these things are used as lights in the channel tunnel. They do not need replacing as there's no electrode to fail. My post doc work in plasma focused on these. ICD's are not the full story. Apart from the current in the coils contributing to an inductive discharge there is s secondary effect of the changing electric field between the coils themselves that can give rise to complex surface wave (like) propagation between the plasma (dielectric) and the vacuum. Depending on the plasma conductivity (and approximately the neutral gas pressure) this effect will also cause ionization. Inductive effects are very local -the electric fields effects are more far reaching and cause the torus to move around a lot. These things are fairly well understood -by about five people on the planet!

love the density of collaborations

Future Theme: Recreating Tesla's experiments, Plasma formations (Mars "valleys/mountains" etc), or Ball Lightning (that clip at 8:10 got me thinking about it)

Buen video... que sucedería si hay algo dentro de la ampolla? (metalico, organico o inerte) mas o menos centrado o con variaciones de posicion con respecto a la bobina oscilatoria... Gracias

@PlasmaChannel Jay, this is what I sent a message about ICP (inductively coupled plasma) generation used in semiconductor manufacturing. Hook a plasma gas inlet and outlet to a reaction chamber and you have now created a "remote plasma source." These typically use 13.56MHz or 400kHz depending on the design.

12/24v Water jet turbine engine for small watercraft (12ft jonboat for example). I've built a few prototype models but id imagine you could cook up an awesome design. Id experimented with rear dual, front single assist, and a 5 jet system (2 rear 2 mid and 1 front). Use an Arduino for control of a stepper motor for a steering rudder.

Absolutely love this, the display is beautiful and captivating. Have you ever experimented with Peltier generators (TEG) and tried to combine with another one of your experiments to try to make the power more sustainable? Would love to see an experiment using some kind of Thermoelectric generator!!

❤ I’d love you to do a video explaining the theory of relativity, because every time you explain somethingI seem to understand it. I think that you’re one of the only people that could help me understand it well.

keep up the great videos, it a metallic conductor was placed inside the vessel would the plasma attach itself to the object?

Would love to see the outcome of spinning gyroscope magnets anti gravity theory, it's been a interest for a while and love to see your findings on the subject

Hey Integza, me and some of my friends are trying to create a long transmiting signal from two points with minimalist portable design for a special project of ours. We originally were hoping to use lasers but after debating whether they would work during the day and through dense undergrowth we atenpted to look for other possible solutions. If you could cover this in a video we would be extremely greatful 😁. PS we know very little about this and are dipping our toes in the field of engineering and science 😅

I think your content is really inspiring. Great Work!

A cool experiment is using a stroboscopic light to slow down a vibrating sting, like the ones in a guitar. Or falling water droplets. You can even make them "go up".

Are the protons also oscillating, or do the oscillating electrons induce a net motion upon the protons (kinda like the wheels that drive a conveyer belt?)

Great seeing you and Destin!

How about a future video expanding on the idea of Plasma Channel's Ionic Wing to go with your Ionic Thruster, or perhaps put your own spin on his version of an MHD Engine for underwater use? Perhaps a magnetic thruster akin to his but with a use he has not come up with yet? Would love to see your take on it. Since you have already worked with Ionic Thrusters/Jet Engines, I bet you could do some amazing experiments and work with those or even the concept of his Ionic Wing but paired with your Ionic Thruster... Would be a "blast". 😉

Hey, Integza! Such a pretty cool and funny use of engineering. Next, why don't you try to use differently shaped glass flasks, like one such as an Erlenmeyer, so you can try to create a different form? Or making an "extruded" hollow triangle at some glassware, doing the procedure with the low pressure gas and going for that plasma. I think you could actually really do it at home, since you always naaaaails it. Dude is a mvp 🤯 Hope you see this message and tries it! P.s.: ALSO, maybe trying to create/use an Electromagnetic Pulse gun to check if it is able to turn on the process on from a longer distance (just please be careful with your electronics such as phone, camera and so on. Maybe using some Faraday's cage would protect it enough). You could even expand the concept to something as a "sniper" electromagnetic pulse gun

Great video's ! always watching to learn something new from all these amazing engineering channels. I'm wondering if it's possible to make a long glass tube between a Jacob's Ladder and make rising plasma donuts.

I have a suggestion for a video and project. Its inspired by your jet engine videos, but a regular jet at least may not be the best implementation. I have a condition called MS. (Multippel Sclerosis). I'm not bound to a wheelchair or anything, but I am disabled due to nerve pains, muscle pains and with all that comes a condition of its own called fatigue. Fatigue in a condition like MS is nothing like being tired...its hard to explain. But imagine going to bed feeling at least ok. Next morning, for no reason at all, you wake up feeling like you ran a marathon and had your final exams the day before. And got seriously drunk afterwards. Then got jet lagged. Its being exhausted with no reason at all, and not just mentally but your muscles as well. But I love being outdoors. I also love machines and skiing and making a camp fire and well...I love a lot of things. I havent got a huge income, so I can't really aford snowmobiles or sniw cats and besides regulations on their use here are ridiculously strict. I've saved up for a while, and my daughter will be moving out soon, so I want to get myself a computer, I grew up with them, I love them and I'm a nerd at heart. I just didn't prioritize that while my daughter grew up. I actually want to try streaming and maybe take people along with me into the forests through streaming. A 3-D printer would be lovely to experiment with. I always loved mechanics as well, so I'm both curious and interested in learning to use them. Anyways...I digressed, but here is my idea and why its relevant to me: Its really tiring and hard for me some days to get out on skis. And since I'm often so fatigued, it limits my range with how far I can go for a trip. So if anyone could show me how to make something like a ducted propeller setup or something that could give thrust and propell me forwards up hills and across frozen lakes, that would be really useful to me. Could even use it in a bike. It would either have to be a light setup in a form of electric jet that could easily be hand held to pull, or fixed in a backpack or harness. Think a more modern version of a propeller backpack. More compact and lighter. I guess its too much to hope for, but I coukd get lucky and you'd become interested in the concept itself. I'm also very sure a lot of others in my situation could use something like that.

Hair looks great brother 👌 thinking of doing the same

It would be interesting to see if that would assist in plasma control for future space travel. Plasma drives might be an interesting concept

I'm going to have to watch this again to fully grasp the concept

Great channel! I know it's almost impossible with today's technology but would you consider making a hoverboard? With your understanding of magnets and current, I suspect you might have a chance of getting this to work well 👍👍

At 5:59 a beam appeared when you touched the tip of the bulb. Fascinating!

You can build the opposite side of the field by adding a coil to the top and connecting into circuit. It will stabilize the ring..

since the glass resonates, what would happen to the plasma, if you induced an external sound vibration ? it wouldnt take much experimentation , but instead of the plasma inducing a vibration to the glass, what would happen if you did the inverse of that? in other words if an external sound wave were applied to the glass, would the plasma react or behave different? have you experimented ? both very low, and very high frequencies ? since it resonates in a sound frequency you can hear, i think a good place to start would be the audible ranges. specific notes, flats and half notes, just too see if it changes anything. its not something i have seen anyone experiment with, and it could lead to a better understanding of whats going on.

@integza I wonder if it would help in figuring out how this works to put the entire device in a vacuum chamber and pull a partial vacuum so you can see where the ionization occurs when the device is energized?

Holycrap that was all the youtubers... like all of them lol i love it!

Make a thermo acoustic generator. I've seen it here and there but a man who can make tomatocide fun to watch is worth the topic.

Not sure how easy it would be to get materials, but how about a video on the different gasses and seeing how bright a light you could make using them sort of like making a light bulb. The plasma loop reminded me of the arc reactor in iron man, thanks for the videos

So there is one thing I have always wondered when thinking about tesla coils. If you move a florescent or neon light near one, you can often get them to light up, as shown in this video. Would it be possible to draw a current off that light? Effectly using the light as a wire to transfer current? If so, it could lead into the very tech we all have always wanted, florescent and neon punk XD But seriously. Think about something that you plug into your phone's charger port (or is built right into the phone) that holds a small light. Step near a tesla coil, light flares up and wham! You are charging your phone. Ive never had the funding or space at the same time to explore any of my many, many ideas. But this one has keeps coming back with a vengence, so I need to post it somewhere.

You should try tomato slices coated in mayo and mustard. I'm usually not a huge tomato fan, but that's one of my favorite snacks.

Idea: Expand on this episode: instead of a single coil, have many smaller coils like you would have with a matrix of coils interdependently controlled. Wonder if you could make shapes and such? Wonder how small you could go, maybe cover whole sphere and turning on some then changing to others could be cool. Computer controller and a bunch of wires, sounds like fun. Plus I Could use that Printer… Thanks again for a great video!

@zilipoper awesome versions including uv excimer!

i would suggest to do a video on quantum locking of a magnet or quantum levitation using superconductors (eg YBCO)

Since the contest is for a 3d printer, I suggest 3d printing an array of Fresnel lenses to make a sun-powered oven, crucible, death ray, reaction chamber, or whatever else needs lots of heat that can cheaply (after initial development investments) provide a heat source for projects.

Awesome! Time for a transparent plasma gasifier!

where do I get One I want to do that using Magnets. could be a particle accelerator.

Video idea: You should make the same type of documentary video about Leonardo Da Vinci that you did about Nikola Tesla. You could 3d print and build his inventions.

Well now I kinda want to see you do a video on a Farnsworth-Hirsch "Fusor" (aka the home scale nuclear fusion reactor), which is what I thought this video might be about from the thumbnail and title.

Is it possible to take an alternator and rig some sort of crank on it to manually charge batteries?

IDEA: Instead of using compressed air in an engine (or explosions) like you have in the past, maybe you could consider using a vacuum cleaner to create a vacuum engine. There are tons of them designed in LEGO, but I'm pretty sure that a machined or 3D printed one would work as well as, if not WAY better than a LEGO one.

I would realy love to see how this scales up in size and what would be the biggest version you would be able to build .

You should try and make your own Lightning Generator/MSAART Plasmoid device. Id really love to see how you implement this technology!

Hey integza, you should make a butane cooled 3d printed rocket engine similar to what you did with the water cooled jet engine. You could print it in ceramics to or resin, you could also metal 3d print it like how you did with the pulsejet. If you did print it in ceramics you would have to electroplate it to stop the butane leaking. I know you have made rocket engines that have survived and not melted due to the heat being transferred to the air, but in space that can’t happen and you need cooling. Although you can’t go to space it shows that the rocket engine is “space grade” just an idea
