Frankenstein lab prop

Postby Antera » Jun 10th, '11, 12:44



maybe for the bizzaros here, i see a strange device the other day in a Science Educational shop

I tried to post the pic bit couldnt for some reason. Anyway it looks like something out of a Horror Movie from the 30s. Its a glass ball with a spiral tube leading to another pointed glass ball. The red liquid inside has the property that it boils at the temp of your closed hand and so rises up to the top ball when held

Maybe i should buy one and loan it out for free to someone here, its not my scene really ( Bizzare Magic) but maybe a conversation piece

( maybe a blood tranfusion effect)

Nice find! It sounds like alcohol and dye held in a partial vacuum.

at £4.95 a bargain i think. This site is a bit of a secret and they have some other stuff..according to the owner many magicians buy bits and bobs here...

It used to be called MUTR and they sold a lot more of the smart materiels but they seem to have dissapeared from the new site , anyway its worth a browse

I used to have one of those but it was sold as a love-o-meter, depending on how quickly the liquid went to the top told you how in love you were.
