I often prefer alternative materials to silk, such as cashemere or wool, they set me apart by a mile, but what I think you meant by silk is king is polyester is worthless...

Thanks for the great information

Get a dosimeter. This stuff isn't that hot. I have much hotter stuff... like a Radium compass (Half a million counts per minute of gamma radiation).

With working from home and casual clothing..ties are getting easy to find cheap.. I been picking up brionis stefano ricci italo ferretti etc for less than 5 bucks

Thank you for your research. Just a quick note though. Don't discount those ties that are made from fabric other than silk. Depending upon the brand, condition, design some of the wool, polyester, and cotton ties sell very well. But, silk is king.

All my ties sit for ages!!!!

I've collected vintage ties for my husband since the early 80s; he has at least 100 of them now but doesn't wear them. They're from the 40s to a few 70s vintage - AND one tip-up tie. Anybody interested?

The decay of the uranium is very slow. One of the decay products is U-234 with a half-life of about a hundred thousand years. The decay product of U234 is thorium 230 with a half life of 80,000 years so a significant amout of Th-230 is not going to build up in our time. U-238 is the principal parent isotope. It's half life is 4.5 billion years. There is leas than 1% of U-235 . In other words only an insignificant amount of the uranium will decay.

I really don't think someone who has zero experience in there fire service and clearly has not prior knowledge should be giving there 4 cents on a style of helmet that nearly half of the United States and Canada use.

The 365nm lights will fluoresce uranium glass but will also light up manganese glass that has absolutely *no* uranium, the 395nm lights will only fluoresce uranium glass.

You show how to see the glow with the lights off. No one has that option in store. Would be nice if you include how it looks in a more realistic lighted situation in store.

I Just bought some 1940s ties in an Thrift Store. They are great But i am wearing them and Not selling.

The clear glass is probably manganese glass

I think there's gonna be a new wave of uranium glass. Because we have to put the waste somewhere. Can't concentrate it in dumps; that's where it goes critical.

New to this hobby. Great simple video lesson. You covered all the basses. 👍❤️ I found a new hobby that me produce some profits. 👍 Thk u !

Great video 💚

Thank you for saving me 200$ 😊

All that research for 5 bucks??????

This video is horrifically inaccurate.

the problem with using a 365 flashlight is most blacklights people put in their display cabinets are 395, so you might end up buying something that lights up with your 365 flashlight but then doesn't show up under your regular blacklights in your cabinet

Well..from this video, I learned that a,UV flashlight is a 'thing'. Also enjoyed the comments..

Fun channel! Subscribed. Including some brand names would be helpful fyi ♡

I LOOKED ALL OVER WAL-MART AND THE INNER-NET AND COULD NEVER FIND A *"YOU-VEE FLASHLIGHT"* - WHERE CAN I GET ONE, AND HOW MUCH ARE THEY???!!!!

Can't believe you found one for $25 lmao

Useless

I myself own a Geiger counter and a small collection of radioactive dishware, and my vintage orange Fiestaware teacup gets the counter up over 3,000 CPM! 50% higher than the "evacuate immediately, report to government" warning on the card; however it's only detectable from a few inches away, and I don't drink from it often.

Have you considered wool ties? Shantung silk? Linen or linen silk blends? Yes silk is king with neckties but wool is amazing too...

You should come back, your videos are of high quality and actually informative. Anyways...thank you for making them in the first place.

I want to booking 1 special Uranium glasses for celebrating my successful in my ambition.

Haha imma have to get a geiger couter for my aunt now they have like 120+ uranium glass dishes and cups sitting around there house

I want collect Uranium glass, I'm wondering if they imported to Mexico

I love the Bennington flag. My grandparents had one, they became popular back in 76 during the Bicentennial.

I agree, euro style is more modern and better in almost every aspect. However, the American helmet serves as tradition arguably more than across the pond. Over here we take traditions very seriously and in this case, obviously over safety. After getting on for my FD, the helmet is the most exciting thing I get to wear hands down. It is a huge sense of pride, we often wear it when we obviously don’t need it, but the fact is, tradition alone makes it the biggest honor to wear (for me at least) and I’m willing to take the risk. It’s not just a helmet, it’s a work of art.

Thanks for a nifty, informative video! 🌞

Can transparent glass be made with uranium or is it made with manganese?

Uranium is primarily an alpha emitter. A Geiger counter that detects alpha emission will give more satisfying results when it comes to detecting radiation from uranium glass.

not a bad video but like many vids on uranium glass....its NOT THE SAME material as used in nuclear reactors OR weapons. IDK why ppl assert this, to add some jazz to their videos, or out of ignorance. I wont bother to explain the difference between naturally occuring uranium ores, and weapons grade material but it should be fkin obvious they arent putting highly enriched material into a wine glass ffs. Also CPMs are not how they measure the biological risk of exposure to ionizing radiation...not that it matters because the counts were so low to be laughible. Im thinking you may just get a higher count from a bunch of bananas, or standing next to a giant piece of granite, but you never know.

Get some radio active trash, (recycled art is always in), from the Japanese tsunami. Get some lead lined glass to make your display box out of. Make a flower out of your contaminated waste, (it must be contaminated enough to power a small display light for itself), put it all together under your 'safety glass' display box and you would have what? Your own personal radio active power plant.

My earliest piece of uranium glass is close to 1800 and a kind of brown/khaki colour. Under UV it’s bright green and probably has a higher uranium content. 18th and 19th century glass makers had their own secret compounds/methods for clarifying and colouring glass, and experimented to create new effects and colours. Basically they would worked this out by trial and error.

lol why does your tyvek suit have a bomb shelter symbol on it?

Does a uv light work in day time if you are checking a thrift shop or do you need to put the item in a dark place?

That's why we don't wear the chin strap like that

Excellent video ma man 👍 can't wait to start my collection!

When you find it in an antique shot and it is labeled Uranium or Vaseline... it is EXPENSIVE... cause they know it is collectible. But taking your flashlight UV and panning around you do run across just stuff in the wild marked at 1 or 2 dollars and you NAB it ! It is fun but I have seen whole cabinets full of glass so I have a long way to go. It does set off my geiger counter so I keep it in my leaded glass curio cabinet.

Thanks man! Great video. I just started collecting and it’s addicting lol!
