Super Glue And CINNAMON Has An UNEXPECTED Reaction! The TKOR Super Glue and Baking Soda Trick!

Imagine trying to sell this house years down the road. There's burn marks on the driveway, bouncy balls in the garden, and now a paper plate glued to the porch.

Bounce around on YouTube long enough and you'll end up watching glue dry. I need to go to bed 😑

Super glue and baking soda has been a staple of the model building community for more than 30 years. Acts like micro balloons and resin.

Thanks for the video. I have been using thin superglue (CA) for nearly 20 years in woodworking. CA is a near perfect glue for wood repair. It's primary negative is that it cannot be stained easily. CA can be stained, but it takes a lot of skill and talent to pull it off successfully. Baking Soda is a strong contender for a quick and easy replacement to the traditional filler. Fine, pure sanding dust from multiple species of wood that can be blended to match the base wood color of your stock. The one thing I have always desired was a cheap, easily colored filler to replace the expensive wood and water based stains I have used in the past. The best part of the video was the molds. The practical application for CA and mold making goes way beyond props. With what you have shown in this video, I can save hundreds on decorative wood hardware. It's nothing unusual to pay north of $100 for a single corner bracket that resembled cast iron. Usually, I would use such hardware to cover the structural hardware used. The potential to use graphite and aluminum dust is exciting. For the base cost of one bracket I could buy enough supplies to make every piece of decorative hardware I want for my next project. To buy all the pieces I want for the project, I am looking at a base cost of about $1,000. Thanks again for the video, I can hardly wait to start experimenting with this.

6:24 - For cinnamon experiment

For the impatient: 1:50 baking soda 2:18 graphite 4:18 graphite with baking soda 6:10 powdered sugar 6:23 cinnamon 8:20 aluminum powder 8:35 aluminum and baking soda 12:00 they breath in super glue vapour 13:30 they attempt to cook eggs with super glue

This was probably already mentioned somewhere in the comments but the graphite powder can be sprinkled on top of newly poured epoxy to give it a textured effect and make it appear similar to other stone-like countertops.

AMAZING to me that you two are doing experimenting without eye protection. And even breathing protection. Truly inexcusable.

"How many times should we change our intro?" "Yes."

Everyone else: stocking up on food Nate and Callie: uses cinnamon,powdered sugar to mix with super glue

I love how Nate just casually says “yup that’s burning hot to touch it” I need that level of calmness in my life

I repaired a very broken ABS plastic motorcycle fairing with superglue and various powders including bicarbonate of soda and vsrious modelling powders. Worked an absolute treat. It is durable and is taking me through winter biking....until I drop it again.

TKOR: "Don't try this at home, we are professionals." Then proceeds to conduct chemical reaction experiments with Super Glue without wearing a respirator. 12:57 - What did we learn, Nate?

Pro tip: always wear a respirator or an FFP mask that covers your mouth and nose when working with fine aluminium (or most other metal) powder. That stuff is horrible if it gets into your lungs and the fine powders spread realy easily. I use them for pyrotechnics and only open the jar under a fumehood.

Well, this is all rather fascinating, but I'd like to see some durability tests of the different end products. I've seen where the graphite mix becomes quite hard to the point where someone had a hard time drilling it. Interesting how the glue reacts with different compounds, just would like to see some practical applications for each one.

A word of caution: while using superglue on a wood model, I burned my eyes with the fumes. My eyes actually bled, causing blurred vision and a lot of pain. Even the supposed CA with no fumes can be harmful. Just for your information.

My reaction when they added the glue to the bakingpowder: Wow it makes a red light! ... oh never mind

Them: We’re just gonna be mini mad scientists today. Also them: Cooking eggs with graphite and super glue

For your cosplay coins and buttons, try covering them with gold foil once they've hardened.

Thanks for sacrificing your health in the name of science. Please keep us posted on the side effects from exposure so we can continue to learn from you.
