FWG “Mad about Science” – Basic Lab Equipment Kit
£11.99
FWG's Mad about Science series of YouTube videos and kits are designed to inspire exciting but safe experimentation for kids of all ages.
The Basic Lab Equipment kit contains a range of laboratory equipment needed to explore some of the properties of different materials - linked to the KS1, KS2 and KS3 science curriculum - so suitable for STEM or STEAM clubs, home school or just for fun. Youtube videos explain how to make a rocket, an erupting volcano, homemade fizzy lemonade, foaming soap, mouldable bioplastics and many more easy and exciting projects using the equipment from the kit and some things you probably have at home.
SAFETY WARNING: This kit is not suitable for children under 6 years old. Contents are made of plastic unless otherwise stated but may still have some sharp edges. Includes some small pieces that may be ingested. Broken equipment should not be used and should be sent for recycling, if possible. All equipment should be used with adult supervision and kept away from children under 6 years old.

Make your own floating pen with this kit - a scientific toy that is fun to make and own. It 'mysteriously' floats on air and demonstrates the effects of magnetism.
The toy - once constructed - can be used as a very low friction bearing - as shown in Rob's videos - and as the base of lots of other experiments and models§

Grafoil (Graphite foil)
Graphite foil is a dry alternative to thermal compound. Its composition is 98% graphite and by its nature it offers both thermal and electrical conductivity. Low thermal resistance means that the foil can be used in high power applications where maximum heat transfer is essential. High electrical conductivity is a natural property because of the graphite structure and chemical resistance makes it an ideal material for prototyping electrodes. 100mm x 100mm Sheet size

This book describes the basics of the Stirling engine, as well as some of the most promising alternative models, how to go about building them and how they can be used to generate power for home use. The idea behind the book is to familiarize yourself with the basics give you some designs to run with and hopefully encourage you to make and use your own engine as a way of "getting off the grid".

Bio Plastics – A Home Inventors Guide
£1.83
Bioplastics is one of those areas where the home inventor has the advantage. The raw materials are cheap, readily available and easy to work with. There has been relatively little study done so far as the field is still quite new and there are a significant amount of discoveries to be made.
This book will encourage the reader to experiment in using the polymers which already exist.

Biopolymers: Casein – it’s preparation and use – a practical handbook
£10.00
The major use of casein currently is as a foodstuff. There have been some inroads recently to using it as a renewable biopolymer resource but development is pretty much in its infancy.
The bulk of the contents of the book is derived from texts that were prominent in the early part of the twentieth century as this is when most of the work regarding this material was done.
The first part treats of the preparation of casein from milk, which is done in all cases by the precipitation of the suspended casein compound from the milk with the aid of acids or a ferment (rennet), and its purification and drying. Following this, will be described the application of the casein paints and painting, the production of putties, plastic masses, etc., and finally some of its alternative uses for further consideration.
As most of this work was done in the early part of the century this volume represents little more than a rewrite and update of Sherrer’s text on the subject – no apology is made for this as the information is invaluable and should be made accessible to the modern audience.
Finally, it should be noted that the recipes presented in this book don’t represent end products in themselves but rather points of departure for further experimentation.
