Okay, in this egg I’m going to show you how to make artificial plasma balls.

What is plasma? It is an highly ionized gas containing electrons, ions, and neutral particles.
It would appear to you as a floating ball of fire, but don’t be mistaken... this is the fourth state of matter called plasma.

Warning if the microwave you use belongs to your mommy, I highly reccomend you dont do this experiment.

WARNING: This experiment is unsafe. If you absolutely have to re-create it, be prepared with a fire extinguisher and you might want to conduct it outdoors. The presence of plasma will also create O3(ozone) and Nitrogen oxides (NO & NO2). These are dangerous if inhaled so make sure you’re in a well ventilated area.


MATERIALS NEEDED
~Lit cigarette or
Toothpicks or
Charcoal or Anything carbon based

~Pyrex glass, or
A Mason jar

~Lighter

~Microwave oven

~Flat bottomed cork

After conducting this experiment a few times I found that it’s best to use a lit cigarette.


If you cant get a cigarette, your second best option is to stick a couple pencil leads and a toothpick into a cork


What you want to do is place the cork with the toothpick in the middle of your microwave, set the toothpick on fire, put the glass or jar over it, and turn on your microwave.

In this first run I used the toothpick and pencil lead...it didn’t work very well.



In this second run I used just a toothpick by itself.
This time plasma appeared...just not where I expected it to.



After I removed the first toothpick a piece of it fell off and onto the tuntable.

In this video I decided to use a lit cigarette. I got the results I was looking for this time.



I’ll have you know the cigarette wasn’t harmed and I finished smoking it.


In this video I’m using another lit cigarette.



The plasma formed around the cherry of the cigarette and cracks the glass from the intense heat.

I was done...but one of my friends was over and I decided to show him. This time I used a Mason jar and a toothpick though...



The SECOND I turned my cam off after that this is what started happening...



Until that last video, I had concluded that lit cigarettes were most effective in generating the plasma...Now I believe that the toothpick is more effective.

Tips to successfully generate your own plasma:
~Use a wooden toothpick in a cork and light the MIDDLE section of the toothpick on fire, not the top.
~Use a medium- large, heat resistant glass sphere.
~It helps to turn your microwave on high.

Well that’s it for my egg...I hope you all enjoyed it.

Since when is making plasma in a microwave a new concept?

Alle is this procedure on Rotteneggs.com? Who said it was a new concept? I didn’t...I just took my time to do it so that anyone who doesn’t know about this will.

How is this relative to this egg?
Most of those eggs are not even in the same subject, and half of those are the ones he messed up when he posted them.
This is the first of it’s kind to be posted with a lit cigarette.
Stop dogging it and leave it alone......anybody knows how to do a fucking water change, just look it up on google.

You can find anything on goggle, so why post it here?
Thats what your trying to say when you posted the google link
Google is not relative to rotteneggs.com Alle, the only time it is relative if it is C/P and it’s not.
Those other eggs he fucked up on will be deleted.


ShadyGrey

Dec 01, 2007 8:10 pm -
ok I went to that link for RE eggs you sent me Alle

First one:
Quote:
Go to the above website to make plasma with a grape and a microwave


Second:
Quote:
Y u need a toothpick, stand for toothpick it can be eneything to help it stand up and a microwave.
1. Put the toothpick in da microwave with the stand and turn the microwave on and it sould make plasma. Very dangerous i wouldn’d try this.

ya put da toothpick in da microwave der der... that’s the ENTIRE egg.

Third: not the same thing, no pics, and a terrible explanation

The rest of them are about fucking grapes...not ionized carbon fibers asshole.


ShadyGrey

Dec 01, 2007 8:13 pm -
Oh and Alle...if you search for any of your fish/ aquarium related topics on google, I’m quite sure you’d find MANY more articles and sites based on that then you would on generating plasma with carbon fibers.

Alle has been pwned.
Rate 5*s everybody!

Dec 01, 2007 9:40 pm -
No, Alle did not get pwnd. Don’t you have a mammogram to be at Nos?


I didn’t say it was a shitty egg, but as I expressed to SG in a PM, I am tired of the "ZOMG! MAKE xxx WITH UR MICR0W@VE" concept. It bores me.


And Nos, before you go talking shit about my aquarium eggs, why don’t you take a look at YOUR shitty attempt at a Cichlid care guide. The fallacy or two that I pointed out were just few of many I could have pointed out. I am the Aquaman, bitches.

Since when does an egg have to be a new concept? He made some great videos and gave great instructions on how to replicate it, and included safety advice. This is the best egg I have seen in a long time.

Keep up the good work Shady. 5* from me

I used to dislike Alle but he’s just embarrassed Nos therefore he’s back into my good books and off my block list.

Nos, you got "owned", again. So much for your incredibly high intelligence which you claimed to have.

I never claimed to have high intelligence, I don’t have to.
Alle not once addressed to anything I said besides everything that was irrelevant, he basically said....blah blah blah this bores me blah blah blah look at your crappy cichlid guide.....which he stated in my commmets on that egg that he couldn’t find much wrong with it, so either way he lied like a bitch.
Once again Pwned and thanks for your amusing little comments hat mean jack shit to anything that is relative.

Well for a start you incited that you were intelligent (don’t be anal retentive about the actual de5criptor used) back in your other thread in Debate. Alle didn’t need to address anything because he can make you look like an idiot without doing that. Also who is "reletive"? I didn’t know "reletive" was reading my comments or didn’t give jack shit about it.

Can you stop me? No. Could you try to? You can but I will never stop making a fool out of you and pointing out your stupidity, your "meatheadedness" shines through all the time.

Perchlorates are fun.

^See how this is posted you fool? See how what you said shows up in a nice Grey box? its called the proper use of tags, I would exercise it if I were you.
Also WTF are you talking about Saying this?

"reletive&quo ;


Because I clearly said this
Quote:
that is relative.


Maybe you should brush up on your reading comprehension instead of sitting on your 7 year old computer turning a whiter shade of pale, Your obviously trying to compensate for something due to your ignorant and totally irrelevant put downs and flames. Your just trying to suck Alle’s dick with your constant praise and ass kissing.

Do Rotteneggs and the entire internet a favor and unplug your keyboard.
Anything that you say from this point is irrelevant as exhibited by prior stupidity.

I would like to apologize to ShadyGrey for discussing such matters in your comments. You may delete them all if you like.

Pretty cool well explained 5*s...And were did you get a Black cigarette?


ShadyGrey

Dec 02, 2007 5:41 pm -
Thanks to those that gave a good rating and commented.

BlazedEskimo- The Black cig is a Kretek aka clove cigarettes. They are called Djarum Blacks. Do you live in a semi-large town? if so you can prolly go to a convenient store and buy them. I live in Panama city and it was at the first gas station I asked at.

hey, take a grape, cut it in half and put it in the microwave for 1 minute. Save yourself any hassle.


ShadyGrey

Dec 03, 2007 5:16 pm -
hey dipshit I said "generating plasma with carbon fibers" not "microwave plasma"... If you take a look do those ones you circled and shit have anything to do with carbon fibers? NO! they don’t. They are about GRAPES or TIN FOIL
I’m going to delete your comment because it’s stretching my page. If you’d like to re-search the specifics of how I created the plasma in the microwave and repost a comment that DOESN’T stretch my page I’ll leave it alone.

chcikgriddles or i can take cigarette...stick it under a glass and make the plasma visible for longer periods of time.

I’m sick of hearing shit about grapes... different method...not on RE...not widely known...STFU

Lightbulbs in the microwave...
I’m guessing my microwave has an auto shut off switch that somehow detects the corona developed in these lightbulbs because they both only lasted a couple seconds and then the microwave would shut off the magnetron.

btw this is not carbon fiber its a fucken cigarette that burned.

Quote:
Carbon fibers are the closest to asbestos in a number of properties. [1] Each carbon filament thread is a bundle of many thousand carbon filaments. A single such filament is a thin tube with a diameter of 5–8 micrometers and consists almost exclusively of carbon.


still rated a four but it pissed me off when you went after alles good eggs when you egg is not a new idea all your doing is making plasma in a microwave and instead of burning a tooth pick your burning a fucking cigarette.


ShadyGrey

Dec 06, 2007 12:29 am -
Yeah your comment was stretching my egg and I openly stated that I was deleting it. Carbon is what makes up almost everything you see... anything organic is made of carbon...when you burn something organic, charcoal is made and within charcoal is impure carbon. PURE carbon can be found in the for of graphite or diamonds. BURNING CIGARETTE = ASH = IMPURE CARBON. I wasn’t raggin on Alles egg. I was simply proving the point that almost everything on this site can be found elsewhere. Thank you and goodbye. I’m going to go light one and make some carbon.
