WTF?! Red hammer, how on earth?! lol

The product will be an ester; an alcohol and a carboxylic acid produce an ester.

In this case:

CH3-CH3-CH=CH-CH2O(HO)CH-CH2-CH3

Aylesbury, Bucks outside of uni term time and Southampton when at uni.

I play the bass and the guitar (and when Im in the mood I play the my saxaphone too).

My pride and joy is my 5 string bass, Yamaha BB605, just like this one

Also have an electric acoustic bass and my cheapo squier P-bass.

Guitar wise I play another cheapo squier, the squier strat, which has been, how can I put it....."customised". lol. Ill try and get a pic of it up tomorrow. Its been covered in zebra pattered fur I also have an old Italian made Eko acoustic guitar (its about 30 years old and plays like an absolute dream - it was a gift from one of my dads friends)

Im not a huge fan of playing through effects, I always end up playing for too long trying to find the right sound and not enough time actually playing the guitar! I just use the EQ on my amp and bass and vary my playing style (playing fingerstyle you can get a huge range of sounds just by the way you pick the strings and then youve got slapbass on top of that so I dont feel Im missing out on too much! lol).

And for those that want to know I play through an Ohm amp, 60 Watts with a 15 inch cone and a front port that runs the width of the cabinet. Ive never dared turn it up above 1/2 volume, and yes, the low B on the bass does vibrate the walls, windows, floor, furniture, ornaments, small pets........etc

To add another word of warning, Ammonium Iodide is also called Nitrogen Triiodide. Watch this to see why you shouldnt really be making it:

Nitrogen Triiodide explosion

Can I suggest you dont use Iodine in pyrotechnic compounds, not unless you want everything stained purple brown. Plus getting iodine vapour in your eyes/lungs is none too wise either.
