Specific Love Creations hi
"Perpetually spinning for 20 minutes"
hahaa
JAJAJAJA
Fill the tubing with sand before bending, the sand will prevent it from kinking, and hold it's shape better rather than flattening out.
Then remove the sand with a vacuum or a puff of air.
sand's a great suggestion on larger dimension tubes, I've used it on copper and pvc tubes over 1/4 inch diameter. For a small dimension tube like this, try talcum powder, corn starch, or baking powder. Sand has too large of a grain to easily fill small tubes - and empty them later.
@@seansullivan6952 I would go with the baking soda option if the tubing is for actual hydraulic or pneumatic plumbing though. Talc is a thickening agent for lubricants, and cornstarch has a similar effect when it hits greeses, oils, or water based liquids. This means that you'd have to remove all greeses and oils and heat it to boil off any moisture first. Otherwise cleaning is a nightmare. However baking soda readily dissolves in polar liquids and so if you flush it out with water once or twice you can be pretty sure its all gone.
You are amazing
And cool
Sand is too hard to insert and remove. In the musical instrument business pipes get bent with frozen soapy water inside.
this is pretty much a pop pop boat it uses that way to move in the water
Mickey Trixster
I own one of those pop pop boats
It sank in the pool and spilled tons of oil 😂
@@Fred_the_1996 way different principal powera this than a pop pop boat
ARGOS CENTURIAN
Not really, the basics are the same
@@argoscenturian6535 the principle is the same, the coil ejects steam and the difference of pressure makes the atmospheric pressure on the water push it into the coil. Bend both tubes one way and its the same as a pop pop boat. The only real difference is the boiler that a pop pop normally has, but the principle of ejecting steam and "sucking up" water is exactly the same.

? What ?
"We have too much aluminum tube on the side so we want to turn that off." You just made my day
thanks guys this was great, it really helped a lot considering i have a school project on steam engines to complete
damon fichtner what ya get
@@emm1757 F Iwe go in same class
Nailed it! But I have seen toy boats with same steam engine and boat works like charm! Can you teach us?
I THINK THEY WILL
Stfu
Yeah should do that
WE WILL BE STEAMPUNKERS!!!
Chetan Vora Modi needs KOR? 0.o
I love how easy and simple this is! Something I can ACTUALLY do! Love it!
"It won't cost that much!"
*brings in tools you'll need that can cost quite a bit.*
This is just like how the grown toy boat works in Ponyo! Awesome!
There is an version of that motor which sucks the water constantly in throgh one end of the tube which allows it to run until the candle has burnt down.
Freizeitflugsphäre it's probably to do with offsetting the flame from the centre of the tube, so that it heats the rear end and duck's more in from the other end
How about a vertical coil with the intake on the bottom and the exhaust on the top. I don’t know how effective that would be with a candle flame....
Schöner name😂😂😂
Tom :D Danke bist der erste der mir das sagt😃 hab meiner Kreativität für nen gscheiten Kanalnamen freien Lauf gelassen...

ENGLISH PLEASE!
john beynon english please
Beast Mode hello
john beynon why you dont understand chemistry
This was very neat! Thanks!
I had a bathtub "putt putt" boat that ran with this candle motor 55 years ago. It was made in Japan after the war (Cheap Japanese Junk - at the time :-) The loop was horizontal (not verticle - I think you got that wrong) and it made twice the power as this design and a cool "Putt Putt" noise.
Martin Van Luyn Putt Putt didn’t even exist 55 years ago
Yeah, you're right. The guy that invented "Putt Putt" was inspired by one of these little noisy boats while sitting in the bath tub :-P
Martin Van Luyn I
Martin, I too had one of those little putt putt boats 50/60 years ago, I surprisingly found that they are still being made here in England, cost about £5 now.
The hottest part of the flame on the candle is about 1/8 inch above the tip of the candle flame.
Make a Stirling engine! It is really simple and it looks super cool :) You can power it up with only a cup of hot tea! Also would be awesome to find out how much energy it can make :D
Make a go kart powered by a cordless drills battery and a treadmill motor like and comment if you would like to see a weekend project😜
... a cordless battery???
Eviljimchicken
I think he just forgot to put in • Drill.
Treadmill motors require too high a voltage.
oh yeah i agree make a go kart!!!
how about YOU do that, instead of begging someone else? Sounds like you have what you need(brain) to do it.
the BEST hero's engine i have ever seen, it actually RUNS !
I like these videos a lot better than gummy molds, making giant foods, and destroying stuff
Can you make a bigger (Scaled-up) version of this please
:) with copper pipe from Air conditioner
Is It Real? L
Building a life size Pop pop/ putt putt boat as this, is well, a pipe dream. It just can't be scaled up that far. Some have tried, I know "putt putt for video" has made some pretty big ones, he even made one from a coffee maker.
Yes make a boat that just spins in circles and burns you when you stand on it 👍
Is It Real? the Reynolds numbers go out the window.
this reminds me from that one scene in ponyo, where they had the candle powered boat
If I ever have a science fair this’ll be my project
I once had a small camp stove that operated on a similar principle...
I love science.
Didn't take long about 10 seconds of scrolling before that was bam seen this for the first time after two years
Pretty cool
Nice idea. It works even better when you bend the bottoms of the tube in the same direction. Because one sucks and the other blows. That way they don't try to cancel each other out.
Also, when you place the candle a bit more to the side of the bottom of the loop, then it heats up the side of the loop, which might help circulation a bit.
Perfection and simplicity in one video
Thanks for the best idea for the best coffee mixer!
Those gloves! Kills me every time! 😂😂🤣🤣
hehe. me too! The first couple videos of his that I watched just happened to be where he was dealing with caustic chemicals so I thought that was the reason. Then as I watched more videos, I began to realize he ALWAYS uses gloves :) Interesting
Why u Hatein Homie
KittyCatStudios not "hatein" it's just funny.
love boot
Nate said it's part of his uniform. Wonder if he gets high. I think he's okay.
I've been Watching Your Videos lately,And I just Wanna Say Awsome!!!, that's Why We Proud Called You "The King Of RANDOM" :)
i love this guy. hes taught me so much.
superb!!!!!!!awesome project
I have 4 ideas that I think are going to be pretty cool! :) Please try them!
1. Grind up some sparklers and make homemade thermite
2. Put some lithium in a divot in a block of dry ice with some water and see if it will burn
3. Run a ridiculously large amount of electric current through some light bulbs in a series circuit and make them simultaneously pop
4. Put a stun gun or some electric current near a metal spinning fan blade
Persistence is key!
To be honest, the dry ice one is cool, but I think a piece of sodium inbetween 2 giant blocks of crystal clear water ice would be cooler, we could see what's going on
Joseph Park I guess it is, weird I found you!
1. Thats still not thermite
3. You still have not understood what Current and Voltage are.
thx!
Can you try to hydro dipping dry ice?
Fabian Diaz can’t be done due to the Leidenfrost effect
I think that the dry ice will freeze the water. Great idea BTW 😊
NICE IDEA
Nope the due to the leidenfrost effect the CO2 instantly vaporizes and creates a air barrier between the dry-ice and the water/spraypaint, the spraypaint will never touch the dry-ice.
Noet Games if the spray paint happens to stick a little to the dry ice, do you think it would create a paint bubble?
Hello King of Random. Now that you made this, it'll be great to see you make your rendition of a Stirling Engine :)
Dope. Free energy here I come
Make a Stirling engine
You should do a large scale version of this
So thanks for taking my idea into account. Love you too
Great ideas and expriments as always
That was pretty cool! I was wondering is there anything you could’ve used that was a bit more viscous than water in the tube at first (yet still flowing well) so the dye wouldn’t have come out so quick?
If you want it to be faster you could try alcohol or gasoline, and if you want it to be slower you could use cooking oil.
Gasoline and Alcohol +flame IS one of my favorite combos
This whole time I've seen your comments but never subbed, smaller channels need to band together, sense CZcams is messed up.
Science with Katie iiiiii
Yeah like diluted dish detergent with food colouring to create blue bubbles?
Can you please make a huge version of this👍👑
Pretty neat guys.
Very cool. Thanks hope to do this with my son and show him how it works
Small diameter copper pipe? Brake pipe fits that description quite nicely. Available in a variety of materials including copper.
Happy april fools and Easter Sunday (since 1956)
This is such a great little project - well done.
Very nice, very simple, lots to learn. Great experiment.
Thank you for likening my comment on the arc reactor video it means so much to me😃
You should use a scaled up version of this mechanism to make a floating, steam powered fire tornado. It would be really cool to see the flame power it's own rotation!!
I think growing up would be the first thing to do…
Great fun, thanks. As kids, we'd do this stuff all day and we learned 👍 It is all just as important as it was fifty years ago. You mentioned hobby stores, we used to have them here in 'junk' UK, great for budding engineers, DIY, and kids. They're gone. Luckily we have lots of cafes, coffee shops, charity shops and supermarkets. Also on one High Street you can find several hairdressers and nail bars, junk shops, 'Factory' shops and Pound Shops. It's a real shame for the kids here.
Wow simple but fun especially with the color dye and as midnight CZcams show.
What if you start a chain reaction by laying out all the flammable chemicals you have made till present right next to each other and igniting one of them with power of sun to start the chain reaction.
I'd prefer they tried some new chemicals to make different colored flames and then put them in the correct rainbow order not random because random orders look like 💩
Talking about powders I know they made liquids but it would be hard to make one liquid ignite from another without mixing them.
They already made rainbow flames. But yes they should do the chain reaction then at the end make it set off the rainbow candles
Aman Verma I
How many times have u commented that.. lol
I love this! Can you use this steam engine to build a mini steam boat?
Epic, time to make one
This is sick actually
I've got a steam engine that was passed down from generation to generation that's still working and I now own it I still love it
Samantha Kingery I want a pic to see
Not My Username he's lieing
AlrezGarage 904 that's why I want a pic
Not My Username and u see he didn't. Reply
AlrezGarage 904 I'm waiting for them to reply
You now have a *2D version of that canister*
Beautiful!
brilliant in it's simplicity
Awesome! Can you try to make a combustible lemon!
Kodey - step one, drill lemon, step 2 firecracker in lemon 3 light firecracker
Portal reference?
Cool engineering! Think you could make a video on hydroponics?
Go to cody's lab. Much more intelligent content there.
Great project guys. Simple is best.
I’ve always wanted to do this ;) finally found it
Hey -> can u make a mini boat using simple steam engine :)
DEXTERz GAMING ya
Hey try making ice cream rolls with liquid nitrogen
William Schlosser really haha april fool
Viral Everything YESSS
Viral Everything or dry ice
NICE
Make a mini Wankel engine
Man I love science 👏
I would love to see this scaled up a bit!
make this but in a much bigger scale!!!
Happy Easter 🐣
The_only weirdo Mcb happy Easter!
It's also April Fools day :3
SAME TO U
Easter fools day
That was awesome. those would make an awesome centerpiece and teach science.
This should definitely be in TKOR boxes... Possibly a hopped up version... Think racing stickers ;)
Please do some old school life hack videos!
NICE IDEA
Use methanol
That's an alkANE, yay trilogy science
Lil Memeboy because it has a boiling point of 60 degrees Celsius which will allow for the whole cycle to happen quicker
Yesyesyesyes
D.G.M.ANIA pp
But wouldn't the candle just light the fumes and set the whole thing on fire?
Hm, then again, that could be pretty awesome. Imagine actually doing that with the metal salts for colored flame added in. They would probably plug up the tubing rather soon, but it should look pretty cool until then.
Super awesome!
My left ear loved this video
Try making a pop pop or put put boat. :)
Angus NZ lmao that got recommended to me before watching this vid
@@user-kg4oy4sq2z same
What is the difference betwewn a popop and a put put?
virgilio moncada
There is no difference
@@virgilio6349 just different words for the same thing
Perpetually for almost 20 minutes.. Oh my scientist
He just didn't understand that the water was going out only one tube and coming in the other. If he knew that, he could have bent the tube for better performance. It should run (as a pump) as long as the candle provides heat. Your coffee maker works the same way.
Awesome. This is my kind of stuff.
kind of a simplified Hero of Alexandria engine. very cool!
Cool
SAME
You should have bent both tubes the same direction so that as it turned water would be forced into one of the tubes as it shot out the other
Michio Oliver yes finally someone noticed that, I thought it was trivial
Wouldn't it perhaps also turn the suction into a driving force too? As it is now I think it brakes everything.
I don’t think it would make that much of a difference because there is only two holes in the coil so when the water goes out one end then it would be forced to enter the other end to equalize pressure
Very cool!
That's quite clever :)
the name of the background song is stream engine 🤣
Can you plz try making a Metal Detector.....
Like if you agree
"I had it spinning almost perpetually, for 20 minutes"
I don't think you fully comprehend the definition of perpetual my friend...
this is actually really cool
Just saying, a pop pop boat is much easier to make. No fancy tubes required, just a candle, aluminium can, juice carton, blue tack and some straws.
Well the materials for making a pop pop boat are more easily accessible, the procedure for constructing this engine is much simpler
What happens if you put a battery in the vacuum chamber
ivonne hernandez it explodes, if it's got liquid in it, it boils
EXPLOSION
Nothing will happen since batteries are made to withstand some internal over pressure.
And the liquid will only boil if it gets exposed to the vacuum.
If you want a video to be worth watching, it would be better to either try putting on a capacitor higher voltage than its use, and if they're polarised to reverse the polarity, and use some of those 1F capacitors. That would be interesting. Pro tip: you can just put a battery in a jar and it will look like a battery in their vacuum chamber ;)
That is awesome I tried it myself
Wow ingenious
Years ago we decided to build a very similar "Steam Engine". Everything seemed fine until the heat from the candle caused
April Fools!
Vincent Carneglia wut lol
now make a ship xD
Wow, nice!!! Thank,. Like!!!
Luv the diys
That's hot!
No
RandomFlatShowsvideos and kinky
RandomFlatShowsvideos YOU AGAIN
does gallium evaporate in the mateal foundary?
Whats a "Mateal foundary"
A typo which did not require correction
Probably, depends how hot it is
Sean Parkes no metal cannot evaporate its not a liquid😂, is a like a liquid when melted but still cant evalorate bcz its not a proper liquid that goes through the water cycle, which u learn at school..
Tony Paz Actually, all matter can become liquid. Gallium becomes liquid at around 80 degrees Farenheit. Some matter, such as wood, has a burning point that is below it's melting point, rendering it unable to melt. But all metals have extremely high burning points, so all metals melt into liquid. Water freezes into ice, though not a metal, still melts like metal. Just because something is not liquid at room temperature does not mean it cannot melt.
Great experiment
Yes it is, I've even seen a video showing how to make one from a soda can and bendy straws. I've made 5 of those so far.
Like others have said, bend both tubes to point in the same direction. But also very important, offset the candle to one side. Heated water will rise causing it to flow in one direction resulting in one intake tube and one exhaust tube, and the orientation of both help the contraption spin in the same direction.
Yes! I thought of that but you would have to reshape the cork disk to make it float without it going under the water
