MAKE’s science and chemistry author, Robert Bruce Thompson, has a new installment of his video series The Home Scientist, on acquiring chemicals for your home lab. This video is a nice companion to Bob’s piece in the Make: Science Room on the same subject: Chemicals on the cheap. See Bob’s YouTube channel for all of the videos in the series.

And don’t forget to check out the Science Room section of Maker Shed for lab gear and supplies.
