In any case, Vessel Crafting the guidelines for design, form and structure, electrode attachment, cleaning, and leak checking is the first thing I've decided to tackle. These are quite stable, and If I write it correctly the readers's own resourcefulness will lead to limitless creative choices.
If you're interested in my particular thoughts on something, please ask, I'll even see if I can discuss that question with someone more experienced so we can get a well rounded answer. As always, Be safe, be healthy, and be strong, â -Percy Echols II | Taming Lightning

This lead to a little break from the podcast to reach out and schedule some new recordings.
One of the prime advantages I'm taking during this time, is to sit down and put in some learning and research. While I'm familiar with the Gases used in plasma and neon, I decided to dig a little deeper and find out the history of the Noble Gases, and why they were named, as well as some of the other gases such as Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Iodine vapor. I'll be posting a quiz in the next few days from my research. To give you an opportunity to refresh your knowledge on these gases, I put together a playlist for you to enjoy from the Podcast Chemistry in its Element produced by Chemistry World. Very brief and informative episodes. I encourage you the take a listen to podcasts on other elements as well. There's are really good article I want to read for you, until the enjoy!

This video and topic was made with the support of the Pittsburgh Foundation and The Heinz Emdowments through the Advancing Black Arts in Pittsburgh Grant and Residency hosted by the Pittsburgh Glass Center. A portion of this grant was used to purchase the 3D printer and materials used to print the object shown that will help with developing and finsih my sculptures and programming at the Pittsburgh Glass Center.
Thank You for watching, and I'll see you next time! -Percy | Taming Lightning
