Well, this year is busy, so busy that I don't have time to do anything but work, it sucks at times, but the reward will be worth it, so here goes.

The fist thing Im uploading is a sandbox. We (geologysts mainly) use it to replicate the effects of compression and extension on continental crust. I used anything I found in the garage, and well, it turned out to be a cool box. AS for the ingredients, sand mainly, but then I also used honey, custard, salt, anything that could make it interesting.
This first one is a control experiment, to see that everything checks out.

Edit: I can't upload the images, to big, but I'll post the vidos I made on youtube sometime this weekend, and try to make the pictore smaller. Please excuse the problems

Sounds kewl. You can upload your photos to something like photobucket and link to them.

I got videos of the whole lot of them, i'll try to put them on youtube.

[Issus]

ok, so uploding these things is going to take a little longer than I though, srry but it's going to have to wait. Plus, one of my water tanks broke (I forgot that fresh wood EXPANDS with humidity, now I have to completly rebuild it :-()

[Issus]

and still no progress...but, maybe the library will take some pictures and put them on the net. I'll put the link if they do that

why can't you upload the photos? If they're too big you can make a copy of them on your computer and reduce the size of the copy and upload that version.

[Issus]

come again?? The pictures are taken with a digital camera, but I don't know how to reduce the size of the file...(or I don't remeber how to do it)

[KiwiTek]

you do it in a photo editing program. Resize the picture.

[Issus]

what, something like photoshop??

[KiwiTek]

Whichever program your computer uses for working with images. MS-Paint for windows (iPhoto for macs) should do the trick for you. or if you have a printer, they usually have software to work with images as well.

All you need is something with a resize function.

Make a copy of the images before you start playing with them though

I'll give it a try after my exams. Thanks for the advice, might learn something new!!
By the way, how are things in Christchurch??

Well, the experiments ended up in the library as an exposition I set up. Its in spanish, but the pictures are universal (its a patch, until I upload pictures)
