Strontium Aluminate powder (for when you want a clear paint or lacquer to glow for HOURS, wear gloves though, it's like glitter if you spill any)

Also try Dosidos and Wedding Cake :D

Protip; make sure to check the material is genuinely safe. Stainless steel, Glass and Platinum Silicone are about the only ones you want to get intimately involved with.

A lot of toys these days are made out of unsafe silicones (anything plastic or flexible that isn't made from platinum cure silicone will leech toxic chemicals over time) TPE, PVC, 'jelly rubber' and a number of other plastics. Because of the way they're made, these materials are porous, so will build up pockets of bacteria that can't be cleaned off with boiling or bleaching, simply because they break apart under high temperature or chemicals.

Short and sweet of it is that by spending a little more to get something that's worth it, you won't be putting your health at risk (also treat yourself, because nobody deserves a bad toy)

Wouldn't that be the gpt user that posted this screenshot? Someone making some kind of "I'm getting back at those pesky AI companies by costing them money" ... by pressing the "push to run a machine that burns the planet' button?

Or worse yet, it's an accelerationist willingly pushing the button.

If you search for 'Fiber reinforced hose' you should get something comparable (cheaper than anything that's labelled 'military grade' and fit for a lot of water lines PVC is decent and cheap, but if you're using it for drinking water try and get something that's silicone, just for safety's sake

Only thing you'll ever have to replace is the little rubber O-rings (I use these at work on the radiator fill ports and they're genuinely bombproof)

Get some proper reinforced hose and you'll never need to replace your garden hose / jetwash hose again

Todd Cutler is a solid creator who goes over production of medieval era armour and weaponry such as longbows, warbows and the reality of armour such as plate, maille and gambesons.

That's... Maybe not going to be the easiest of things to order at the bar, I mean you might get one but it probably wont quench your thirst.
