THANK YOU!! ✌️👑

[@ahmedmonjid5696]

This was amazing. TKOR hasn't been that great in recent years and i was only still subscribed because in memory of Grant. Once Nate and Callie left that's when TKOR really took a turn for the worst. Hopefully this right here keeps going because I loved this.

i remember back in the day when grant did a craft that included putting foam in acetone to make goo, and a ton of people commented chewing him out for "teaching kids to make napalm." now it's just a feature of the channel. 🤣 i like the new guy!! like others are saying, very much in the spirit of what grant started.

[@scorcher117]

Yeah as soon as I saw that I was just thinking “that seems a bad idea to be so close to that smoke” and moments later he even commented on how the smoke became an issue. Not really even much of a pay off in the end.

[@WindCatcherRC]

I'm fairly certain the green foam is home insulation from from Lowes. The green foam is XPS (Extruded PolyStyrene) and is about 1.3 lb/cu in. It's not high density foam if that is from Lowes. The white foam is EPS (Expanded PolyStyrene) and is about 1.0 lb/cu in. They are both the same material, polystyrene, and you'll get nearly the same results. I'm not sure if they put any additives in the XPS home insulation foam. It cuts nearly the same as the EPS with a hotwire CNC. And Legos are ABS. If anyone is doing this, I highly recommend you do it outside or with a fume extraction hood. People should not be breathing the fumes from gasoline or acetone. Love the new host and content. Thanks for the change!

[@miproduction6196]

Thank you for the harm prevention tips

[@craigburkey370]

I don't foresee ever using my precious legos to survive, but it would be handy to know how to do so! Loving the direction! Please continue... 😁

[@NSA-admin]

Legos are essentially just ABS. But fun colors lol. It's _fantastic_ napalm.

[@dhausmig]

Just a note on cheese graters. If you slide the cheese (or soap) at a 45 degree angle instead of straight down the grater you will get a much finer product. Try it.

[@TheKingofRandom]

Thanks for the tip!

[@m1nd_fl4y3r_m80]

Me and my best bud did this all the time growing up. We liked making torches and stuff with it, but you should always be super careful. Don't EVER grab lit napalm or try to light it with another pile of burning napalm like you see in the video. It can be extremely adhesive and burn you through protective equipment.

[@scottcarter4388]

Yes Lego napalm! Glad you guys are carrying on Grant's legacy and his love of science of homemade projects!!!

[@SurelyLightFoot]

Legos are made of ABS plastic so it’s the same thing as the abs pipe. Acetone is a chemical solvent used to bond abs as well so if you want your legos to never come apart brush a little nail polish remover on the mating surfaces and they will fuse together.

I have been subscribed to this channel since the beginning and have seen this channel go through so many changes. I am liking the new host and the return of the content that we have come to know and love. This brings back memories of the days of Grant in a way. Looking forward to more great content with this host and from this channel.

[@wtmf80]

I like the new videos but an explanation of what happened to Grace would be nice.

[@coltonkoepp655]

My theory is she decided to take a break due to all the backlash she was getting. If you watched any of the recent videos with her you could tell she didn't have the same energy she had when she first joined TKOR in the summer of 2020 plus she mentioned in a few videos that shes been fighting depression

using way more liquid will result in something more practical in a scenario where you don't wanna spend 8 minutes spreading it with a butter knife lol i've also always been told a 1:1 mix of motor oil and gasoline works best but i've never done it myself so i wouldn't know

[@baskpro8232]

[@rincam5]

you can use the abs plastic "napalm" as an acetone glue to stick pieces of abs together or repair them, once the acetone evaporates its as strong as if thats how it was molded to start. Useful for automotive projects

[@vaulter2k18]

The ABS and acetone is also fantastic for plastic repair projects. Just make sure it’s super saturated so the acetone won’t eat your repair. Once painted on a crack in plastic, it fuses to the part. Great repair hack.

[@bhazlett13]

A much younger version of myself used to do the low density styrofoam and the soap methods in the early 2000s. In my experience, literally jamming the styrofoam in, forcing it against the bottom of the container with some pressure, would vastly speed up the desolving process. Just an FYI

[@justacentrist4147]

One practical use: In canada In forestry napalm is used to burn slash piles (piles of wast wood stumps branches etc..). the forest service calls it snot. Its used because it stays where they put it, it burns hotter, and it burns longer

I do remember in Ukraine they were mixing styrofoam together with their cocktail molotovs as anti-tank tools. All of that Blended plastic I had a marine sniper tell me about some things you can do with that. I learned about mixing a common survival tool together with gasoline to make diy napalm.

I worked in a Paint store and when I was new a customer asked for some colorant to take home with him I obliged and put some black colorant in a Styrofoam cup for him. Unfortunately the colorant was Solvent based and not water based, the customer didn’t even make it out the door before the colorant dissolved the cup and spilt all over the counter and the floor and was a big hit made to clean up. The customer was very cool about it and was just glad he didn’t make it to the car before it started leaking 😂
