  • Need help with electrolysis?

    so i've been experimenting with electrolysis and the hydrogen/oxygen it produces and its alot of fun but i've been having a few problems (im using a salt water solution)

    1 one of the terminals the negative i think? gets eaten away i think its rusting ultra fast

    2 is their a better metal i can use like aluminum or tin i see alot of people using stainless steel i think copper wires also get eaten away and disolve into the water

    3 i have seen people using baking soda is that better than salt is there better chemicals than either of those?

  • how do i stop my homeade transformer from overdrawing from my socket?

    First i haven't made the transformer yet but im ASSUMING(i may be wrong) once i do its going to overdraw on amps and flip my breaker(which is 15a) so

    1 is there a certain ammount of coil windings on the primary to control its amp draw

    2 am i wrong about it flipping the breaker?

    3 do i need some sort of external device in line between the wall socket and transformer(like some sort of resistor for amps?)

    and don't worry about my safety i know how dangerous transformers are especially when dealing with the secondary coil

  • Need some good material recomendations?

    So i'm planning on making a custom level3 bulletproof vest i was going to make the whole thing out of nylon because its pretty damn strong but i got to thinking it doesn't breathe at all and im going to get baked so instead im going to make the shoulder support pieces and the outside lining of the steel plate holders out of nylon and fill everything else with a breathable material

    so i need a breathable material

    Not to stretchy if possible

    Not transparent (or still breathable if i layer it to where its not transparent)

    and i need it to be relatively strong (it won't be bearing any weight) but i don't want it easily tearing away when i sew it to the nylon straps(for example if i were to use something like panty hose material when i sewed line through it would tear holes and it would come apart pretty quickly)

    i know im basically asking for a wonder material here but if anything comes to mind please let me know anything gotta be better than full nylon

    (and please no lectures about safety im not building a cloth bulletproof vest just a holder for steel plates the plates do all the bulletproofing

    also don't recommend me premade plate holders i'm building a custom one because i need more plate hold space

  • How effective is water cooling compared to air cooling in this situation?

    so i was planning on using a noctua dh-14 but it is not compatible with my ram so im moving onto the h110 water cooler my cpu is an i7 3970x and im going to overclock it as much as possible also the radiator is going to be mounted in the center of my case as in it will take air in from my case then expel it back into the case much like an air cooler because there no mounting areas for the radiator besides inside,

    my case has 2 200mm fans blowing air in and 2 200mm fans blowing out (so airflow is excellent)

    first: does the h110 perform as well or better than the noctua dh14?

    Second: is there a better all in one water cooling system than the h110

    third will the water cooler perform well (inside) the tower considering the good airflow

  • need cpu cooling/ram solution?

    so the problem is i want 2400mhz 8gig or 4gig sticks of ram (ergo the kingston hyperx beast series) problem is they do not fit under my noctua dh14

    so i need a solution either 2400mhz 8 or 4 gigs that fit under the noctua dh14 or a cooler that is compatible with the kingston hyperx beast series (that can cool and overclocked 3970x i7) and theres no room in my case for watercoolers radiator so it needs to be stacked onto the cpu

    or would it be possible for me to just hang the radiator from string in the center of my case lol (im serious)

    this is noctuas website that shows what ram fits under there cooler http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=compatibility_r...

    and don't suggest me any water cooled ram

  • Fallout vegas taking my weapons?

    so everytime i want to go into a casino they say they have to take my weapons and i get them back when i leave (which i do)but it keeps unassigning my quick wheel then i have to reassign all my weapons and stims back and its really annoying so i would just kill everyone who asked for my weapons and anyone who attacked me after that but doing so would break every quest involving that group so i can't kill them

    so does the wheel normally get unassigned?

    can i like sneak in or something?

    playing on pc so im open to console commands mods and many other solutions if anyone knows any

    do i just deal with it i mean it really defeats the purpose of a quick wheel if i spend more time putting my guns back in the quick wheel rather than just selecting them
