Steam Vacuum - Making/How it Works @RimstarOrg

RimstarOrg | Steam Vacuum - Making/How it Works @RimstarOrg | Uploaded 11 years ago | Updated 9 hours ago
A steam vacuum is a vacuum that's create by making steam in a container (I use a microwave and a kettle) and then rapidly cooling it back to water (condensing it), leaving behind a vacuum. This vacuum is a low pressure are that dramatically sucks in more water and, if in a flexible container like a plastic bottle or soda can, collapses the container. In this video I do some demonstrations, both of making the steam vacuum and the end result and then given an explanation of how it works.

Included is a short clip from Grant Thompson's "Quick Clips #2 - Steam Vacuum" video where he demonstrates it using a solid glass bottle:

$Pyramid Hologram - How to Make/How it Works with Princess Leia Hologram Easy to make hologram showing Princess Leias message from Star Wars IV, a flying pterodactyl and a skull. All you need to make is a 4-sided clear plastic pyramid and a drawing with 4 different views of an image. Some of mine are even animated.

A hologram refers to a thing created using a specific process and involves the use of laser, interference, diffraction, light intensity recording and suitable illumination of the recording [from wikipedia]. This pyramid hologram is really 4 views using a trick called Peppers Ghost, the result being something that is popularly known as a hologram.
