Your nickel strips were most likely nickel coated. It is very common for nickel strips to not actually be nickel if you get them from a an unknown vendor.

Please wear PPE especially goggles your sister was wearing goggles. when printing parts an O-ring grove (RTJ ) and use a high temp o-ring. Mating flat surfaces together is hard - in pressure valves flat surfaces are machined and lapped to a mirror finish. if you are going to use flat surfaces and liquid gasket try using a spiral serrated / phonographic surface, or pick up a sheet of gasket material, its fairly inexpensively and easy to use.

Try adding fuel, igniting it, and then adding oxidizer, to prevent those explosions (hard start). You were right about the accumulations inside the engine and the spark plug, but I think that your mixing also is in play here. What happens when you add oxidizer first and then fuel is you get a stoichiometric mix of fuel and oxidizer in the chamber, which detonates just like any explosive.

Something that could help you not burn a hole in your table could be adding something like a quarter turn valve. You start with it open, and if something happens, you can close it immediately instead of turning the tank valve for 15 minutes

The madlad literally stripped a linear slider off of his 3D printer because he couldn't wait a week for it to come in the mail! Lol In any case, using the spring would also allow Integza to introduce Hooke's law to his viewers, so that's a plus. P.s. I mean no disrespect by the way.

Someone has probably already told you that copper plate is the foundation for a lot of metal plating including nickel. It looks like your copper was not covering the parts very completely though. Also the silver didn't look thick enough. I suggest more than one dip in the slip to build that up, then sinter it, then thick copper followed by thick nickel. Remember to polish the silver as much as possible, same for the copper to get better adhesion of subsequent layers. Also, of course you should look at what parts of the printed components physically blew open and make them a bit thicker. Anyway, I hope this is as much fun for you to do as it is for us to watch!

@@Penofhell thought sure you could use powdered cat litter (the super cheap kind that is bentonite clay mostly) and really fine grained sand to make "green" sand for lost wax casting and then just heat up the thing a bit more to get PLA to burn completely away? Plaster of paris will dehydrate at 350 degrees I thought becoming brittle and powdery again? (might be wrong on the exact temp, just remember that heating to drive off the water's OH that causes it to harden allows it to be reused all over again, and aluminum has a melting temp of 660º) but the bentonite and sand should handle much higher temps than that 660 of the aluminum so it can be over heated to make sure it flows and retains a lot of its heat, (heating the mold to nearly the temp of the molten aluminum seems like a good way to ensure no blocking happens along with avoiding easy to fracture points from some areas being more annealed while others are more crystaline in nature, but aluminum is much to low of a temp for his engine, I would suggest getting a pepakura making program and import that model for the 3D printer, so it can turn it into a tuck and fold 3D object then he can make it out of stainless sheet or maybe titanium if he can get a cheap source of scrap titanium sheet metal (they do heat tests and such on batches of titanium sheet so should be able to get the off cuts they used for this, from someone who worked there and grabbed it to sell it on ebay or something like I did with .020" thick sheeting, and he sent me a sample that was like .125") if using titanium then I can say it is not that hard to use a router attachment for a dremel, and chuck up 3mm or 1/8th inch thick titanium rod that you then drop down on the seams while spinning about 15,000 to 18,000RPMs to do friction spin welding though it does take some practice, even if you are used to normal stick welding or tig welding, but the welds are a bit better than even tig based ones, and you won't need to oven temper it when done. :)

Just take care about the bubbling of CO2, so stirring and slow addition is necessary. After that, just boil the water and acetic acid out. 120-130 °C should work. Use an oil bath if you can. Direct heat from a heat plate could cause problems :D good luck!

Please up vote this so he sees it, I’m always too late to comment so even though I’ve suggested it a few times I doubt he’s seen it. Just dip in weak sodium silicate solution and set with co2, rinse with water to remove the sodium carbonate, dry part and repeat a few times. It will fill the matrix with silicon dioxide until by definition it is non-porous. Then resister to combine into solid ceramic.

[@baronvonfritz]

I just came here to say that too! Up you go!

[@kryptos1312]

Funny.. i added a comment saying the same thing before I read this one.. it should also strengthen the parts since it is already used as a high temperature adhesive.

[@ThomasAndersonbsf]

problem I see with this is you end up with either aerogel formation which has a much lower thermal survivability than people realize as it collapses, if you use the water and dry method you get silica gel which any water causes tiny fissures and liquid water outright causes it to split and explode like some ice cubes will when dropped in water, but for a very different reason. To get the effect he needs it needs to be held into a mold and fired to bring the SiO2 to full density, before being allowed to expand freely, for a higher temp than both of these, I would suggest sodium alumina as it will collapse if done correctly into a solid transparent aluminum ie sapphire glass, with considerably higher melting temps, so alumina aerogel will last in higher temps too if you want a good insulator to keep the heat in, tougher exterior to keep leakage from occurring and all that jaz, but honestly I would love to see him cat up all the parts and use spin friction welding with titanium wire on a dremel on sheets cut to shape and make it out of solid titanium, as he would be on course for making rockets he could launch into space and have the first tomato free satellite network ;) *there are a couple ways I have theorized to desalinate the sodium half of the silicate and alumina compounds with, with out an acid that actively pulls it free from the product leaving a pure substance against the surface, and then using laser tech to densify it, in layers, against the surface of an expanding conductive coated shape like say a round bottom flask grown around a flask shaped blown up balloon coated in graphite conductive paint to make it an electrode, that can be collapsed afterwards and withdrawn from the vessel, but it has not been tested yet.

@@ThomasAndersonbsf I don’t have time to debate you, but it’s obvious from so many claims there you have a lax understanding at best how any of that works.

@@ThomasAndersonbsf aerogel does use those elements but the method is incorrect for forming it. Try watching nile red's video on aerogel and you will get a better understanding on it.

Hey Integza, nice video even when i see it just right now. I also have an advice for you. For sealing such ceramic products also between 2 parts you might use „Holts Firegum“. It’s normal purpose is fixing car mufflers. I often use it for sealing in between not moving hot parts. By the way, thanks for your entertaining and interesting videos! Greetings from Germany!

INGETZGA! PLEASE! ONE MORE! Print the ceramic peices, glue them together with glaze or wire tie them together with copper or what ever you need to do, but then dip the whole thing multiple times into a proper graphite paint/ink! Then elctroplate as long as possible to get as thick as possible of a coating to make it essentially a completely encased single peice of copper with a ceramic core. @Robbertmurraysmith is always down for a fun project!

[@FzudemB]

Could also try dipping it in molten copper (if he has the possibilities for that) Or use spray welding

[@WileHeCoyote]

@@FzudemB molten copper is hard to make/sustain with out a decent homemade smelter and alot of room and lots of fuel, and its unlikely the fragile ceramic parts could handle the extreme temperature change across the part as it was dipped

[@cobberdog]

He could also first glue the parts together with slip, plug any holes in the part and then cover several times with slip and put in the furnace in between. That would create several ceramic external layers that are entirely continuous, while leaving the inner dimensions unchanged (could also coat the inside if dimensions don't matter too much). Then electroplate the whole thing.

[@dsconnectedn3uron324]

i also really think he should try the glaze, i bet he is afraid because it is glass, but once it is baked onto the ceramic it will never again come off. even if he shocks it with cold water, when it is hot ,it will only make a spiderweb of cracks in the surface but stay on the ceramic. no sharp edges, it's done in ceramic arts because it looks really cool. Also he can use glaze like a glue and bake the three parts together. He just needs some tungsten wire to keep them in position while baking them. metalplating with copper has no use in this case, because copper will grow in grainy little structures, when you electroplate, it will not become as tough as a copperplate no matter how thick. does anybody know how i can get into his discord? i have some ideas that might help him...

U can use a glow plug insted a spark plug and a water coolent around it, and u also can use m-seal rather gluing it

Sealing ceramics is a pain in the exhaust pipe. You could try oven glue / cement on a soft metal seal disc. Spring load your screws. Ceramics temperature expansion is large. You could also redesign for self-sealing contact surfaces with oven glue or cement. Much better to ignite the fuel first and then add the oxygen. Then ramp up the feed pressure of both. Basically like every welder ignites their gas torch and avoids flare-ups and blow-outs.

[@ckimsey77]

Electeoplating that bonds is usually done in a vacuum chamber by higher voltage on the part and metal u wish to plate with. The vacuum keeps oxidation down and allows the metal to ionized and vaporize, which the particles are then attracted to the opposite charge, ur part, and deposits on the surface. This technique binds the plating...electrolysis just creates micro Crystal's by the electrode rather than growing on if because the solution is a huge steric hindrance. In vacuum there is no hindrance so the lions will bond to the part rather than growing microcrystalline pieces beside the part like in electrolysis
