Still a work in progress. You can tell by the british computer voice. I'm refilming the dioxane separation step since the original version was of crappy quality. Anyway, let me know what you think of the video so far. If i can refilm the dioxane separation step, then i hope to release this weekend, maybe next weekend at the latest.

Perhaps this is a silly question, but sodium melts at about 98 C, so if you have it stuck the the bottom of your flask, why not just heat it with oil to ~100+C and pour it out (probably into a beaker with more oil already)? I know THIS video did not show it stuck, but it looks like an easier approach than pliers or (in your earlier vids) smashing the flask.

My general safety principle is not to handle hot and dangerously reactive things when there are safer alternatives available even if a bit a more tedious. One of the problems of hot objects is that if you make a tiny mistake like not using thick enough gloves or other insulating cloth, the sudden surprise of heat might make you flinch and drop the object. The problem with a flask containing dangerously reactive molten sodium is that it can catch fire if the flask shatters. Alternatively, if the molten sodium hits you it can start reacting and even catch fire from just the moisture in you. Cold and solid sodium is much less reactive and safer to handle than molten sodium.

Fair point. I figured being under 100C it wasn't that crazy, but these are all good points.

What is planned for the next phase of research/update? Potassium version?
