I'm disappointed. I was all ready to make at bulletproof shirt. These instructions are not easy to follow at all. Anyone have a good recipe for "black solution of boron"? Also, my oven apparently does not go to 1000. Disappointing indeed.
- sliverstorm 17y agoConsidering iron (melting point 1538C) can be melted using only coal and something to hold it in, I think a truly dedicated superhero-to-be could manage the requisite 1000C
- failquicker 17y ago"black solution of boron" is a bit ubiquitous. But there are enough forms of boron readily available on the market that several "likely candidate" test batches could be produced easily. And your oven will go to 1000C, just not your conventional oven. Your microwave oven will hit 1000C and beyond, you'll just need to tape off the air vent and use a refractory of some sort. I've use silicon carbide and ceramic weave to melt copper in my microwave. It's melting point is just north of 1000C. So cheap walmart T's + boron + a freecycle microwave and you could be on your way to a kickass new startup. Let me know when you start the seed round.
