    You seem to have omitted the selfie.

      Not to worry. If I wanted to advertise something, I would buy an ad (and have something to sell). Instead, I am sharing results of what I found to be an easy and interesting science experiment. :cool:

        Very cool idea! I'll have to do some research on putting together some simple steam engines. Here are a couple others I've taken into consideration: 1. Focused beam of light and send it through another magnifying glass 2. Heat rocks and create lava 3. Line old satellite dish interior with small mirrors to compare temperatures

          I was searching for that before telling it myself.

            It worked pretty well. Temperatures exceeded 787 degrees Fahrenheit (419.4 degrees Celsius). --removed the link-- CodeProject is the wrong place to share experiments. :thumbsdown:

            As PiebaldConsult told you, you should slow a bit the self-promotion of your blog. You have posted some tips with the link hide in them, this is actually to be considered as site driving abuse and can be reported. An article already got nuked. The biggest reason the rest of your post are still there is, that you are relative new and might not know well about the rules and your tips have actually some interesting content. Please read the FAQ & the rules of the site and consider this a warning

                You are welcome. Don't take it personal. But if everyone does it, than it would be a bit annoying. Don't you think?

                  Done. The webpage link (not blog) has been removed. The page existed for the sole purposes of sharing an interesting experiment with a community of like-minded developers. The page did not contain ads or sell anything. CodeProject is not the place to share experiments. :thumbsdown:

                    Done. The webpage link (not blog) has been removed. Don't take it personal? Significant effort was put into assembling the experiment, safety precautions, taking readings, taking photos, and writing up the results. If everyone does it? I thought everyone did include a "Demo of code works" link. It would be annoying not to have a Demo. X| My next projects and articles were to be geared towards Arduino experiments. It is clear that CodeProject is not the platform to share research and experiments on.

                      Regarding souvenirs, I added info to the experiment that includes the PO Box. Send a self-addressed stamped envelope to the PO Box and I'll send you a partially melted nickel washer (free). :cool:
