My channel documents my maddening journey into my obsessive hobby endeavors. Currently, I'm deeply involved with microscopy, chemistry, geology, rockhounding, tool prototyping, specialized materials engineering, creating synthetic ruby & sapphire/(corundum), hydrothermal synthesis of pyrite and many more man-made minerals.
I am not the most disciplined chemist, even in the amateur community, but chemistry is certainly exhilerating. I approach geology more from a chemistry perspective because I collect elements from the periodic table. I'm always learning, and I just love exploring the world around me. Queue microscope!
The worst that can happen is failure. Failing is part of life and is inherently more frequent than success, however, failing is necessary and it is truly the only way to learn and to progress if you are really trying to succeed.
Come fail with me!
