Electricity Demonstration -- Kite, Key & Leyden Jar
Safe indoor demonstration of static electricity, Leyden jars, and electrical conduction. We will NOT be flying kites in thunderstorms. I did that once and it was phenomenally reckless. Instead, we'll use friction machines and Leyden jars to generate sparks, charge objects, and understand positive vs negative charge. I named those, by the way.
Underground Railroad Seminar -- Building Resistance Networks
How to build and operate a clandestine network. Safe houses, codes, route planning, compartmentalization (each station knows only the next), vetting members. The Railroad operated for decades under the noses of slavers and federal marshals. Tip: Trust is your most valuable and most dangerous resource. Verify before you trust.
Radiation Science Workshop -- Safely Understanding Radioactivity
Two-hour session with safe demonstration materials. Cloud chambers to see particle tracks, Geiger counters to measure background radiation, mineral samples that glow under UV. You'll understand alpha, beta, and gamma radiation and why each behaves differently. Tip: Radioactivity is natural. You're surrounded by it. The banana you ate this morning was radioactive. Fear comes from ignorance. Understanding comes from measurement.
Chemistry Lab Fundamentals -- Precision & Safety
Small group (max 4). Proper lab technique: titration, crystallization, fractional precipitation, safe handling of chemicals. I'll teach you the way I learned at the Sorbonne -- hands on, precise, no shortcuts. You will weigh to four decimal places. You will label every beaker. You will keep a proper lab notebook. Sloppiness in a lab kills people. I should know.
Three-Gun Tactical Training Workshop
Pistol, rifle, and shotgun -- safe handling, reload drills, transition drills, and shoot-on-the-move technique. I trained at Taran Tactical for John Wick and now I compete in 3-gun matches for fun. Safety is absolute. We start with fundamentals and build up. Tip: Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
Repeating Crossbow (Zhuge Nu Replica)
My improvement on the repeating crossbow -- a gravity-fed magazine holding 10 bolts, fired by pumping the lever. Less accurate than a standard crossbow but devastating in volley fire. A line of these could stop a cavalry charge. Working replica, safe bolts for target practice.
Chemistry of Energetic Materials -- Safe Demonstration
Safe demonstrations of exothermic reactions, combustion chemistry, and energy release. No explosives -- but you will understand why nitroglycerin is unstable and how adding diatomaceous earth makes it safe to handle. The chemistry of energy storage and release underpins everything from batteries to rockets.
Laboratory Safety Equipment Set (PPE, Full Kit)
Complete lab safety kit: goggles, face shield, nitrile gloves, lab coat, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, chemical spill kit. My brother died in an explosion. Safety is not optional. Every experiment begins with the question: what is the worst that can happen, and am I prepared for it?
Element Sample Collection (Safe, 30 Elements)
Thirty element samples in labeled vials: iron, copper, tin, sulfur, silicon, carbon (graphite and diamond chip), aluminum, zinc, and more. Each labeled with atomic number, weight, and properties. Hold the building blocks of the universe in your hand. Some are shiny, some are dull, some are gas in sealed ampules.
Radio History & Maritime Safety Lecture
Wireless at sea: from first ship-to-shore messages to the Titanic to modern GMDSS. 700 survived because Jack Phillips stayed at his post sending SOS until power failed. After Titanic, every ship was required to carry wireless.
