How did you decide on your soundscapes?

@@RyanMake It's complex. I pay attention to what people are going through on social media. I intuit what I need in my personal journey. I think others might need the same. I ask AI what it thinks I should be playing. I study nature. Love your channel.

Non-miscible fluids could we really interesting I will have to do some research and prototyping!

That is a really fun idea!

It was about 400 lbs if I remember right. I will need to look at my notes

@RyanMake thanks! I like your design. It minimizes uneeded space by the feet. Trying to keep my weight down for my apartment floor 😅

@@demisa5 In you apartment. I would probably not put it on casters and try to orient it perpendicular to the floor joists. That is unless you are on slab with a first floor apartment.

​@RyanMake I'm on the ground floor which is slab on grade luckily 😁 do you sell these plans?

They are posted on my instructables page. The link is in the description

Thanks for the update. I will have to see if there is any other company like them to replace it with.

Very cool. Keep me posted on how the build goes!

There is a benefit to changing the water completely if it is not filtered well. Better filters allow for a longer, useful life. I ended up doing longer filter cycles for maintence and I also shock treated with peroxide but I will need to work on a maintence recommendation based on the commercially available float tanks.

It has been a while but I pretty sure I have that all listed in my instructable linked in the description. Let me know if you end up making one!

@@RyanMake Hi Ryan. Foremost, thanks for the quick reply. And I should have checked the instructables. My bad. you had neatly mentioned the beautiful details. Yes, i got all my answers and more. Thanks and really appreciate your efforts :-)

It starts to Dissolve at room temp but it is able to hold more epsom salt the higher the temperature is. Once you get to the desired 93F the water can hold a whole lot of epsom salt.

Occasional reprives but mostly taking care of kids. Looking to build an easier to maintain tank to be Ble to float more. Do you get to float?

Thanks!

Thanks for the encouragement!

Interesting idea. You would have to seal the seems somehow with epoxy or something

Maybe you can take that up as a project and test it at your skill level! @@RyanMake

I think all of those additional features are possible. Trying to find the time for gen 2 that has more features.

@@RyanMake I know brother. Life comes at us with a stick some days but you're on the right path. Looking forward to more content.

That would be a very large tank. I have napped in a tank before but I am not sure how a whole nights sleep would go.

Thanks! Really appreciate the positive words!

I do have instructions for this build in the instructables.com link in the video description. I am hoping to get the time to build the next generation in 2024. Let me know if you have any questions.

I will need to count how many are on the impeller inside but like with most things if you can not see how something is happening it is probably magic

I can not say I have ever felt that. I do find it very peaceful and relaxing

Thanks! Really seemed to fit the occasion

I would run it for a couple of hours after each use. The way I avoided clogging was running the filter on a timer even if I had not used it to keep water in the filter warm enough to keep the epsom salts from crystalizing. Thanks for the great questions.

That would be fun to put it in a more ornamental glass container!

I agree that it would take considerable tuning to get it to a place for sleeping. Maybe the occasional nap.

Thanks!

That sounds beautiful!

Thanks!

Making tentative statements elicits comments and feedback.

@@RyanMake fair enough . I liked watching your videos and your jokes aren't too bad either lol ... but do you think the govt has weather control devices ?

Really appreciate the feedback. Let me know if you have any questions during your build.

Thanks!

That sounds interesting. Not sure I have seen those

I thought blood was sheer thinning not thickening. I am not sure the blood make any noticeable patterns othe than running off the plate

Small spaces that transport your places!

That is an interesting idea to have a vortex to form to give more structure to the fog. The acoustic force that the manipulates the fog is pretty weak and I am not sure it would overcome the shaping force of a vortex.

@@RyanMake I postulate it will work I'm making one just waiting on the parts to ship. All let you how it worksout. Sound moves 4 to 5 times fast in water so I would think we should see something. There are good videos on vortex fog day machines on the tube that sine laser light on the vortex too ..

@@RyanMake prodject works, I love watching the tornado dance to music

@@calebpoemoceah3087 thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it

The build guide is in the link in the description. Sorry there was not enough of the build process included in the video. I appreciate the feedback

Life has put a lot of things on hold. I am hoping to get more insights in the new year! Thanks for checking in

That makes sense. The inefficiency of a plate that size are pretty high!

What sort of ring shape do you suggest? Are you thinking of making the ring taller?

@@RyanMake you want a venturi effect to eject the hot gasses more focused out of the barrel. That means you have to narrow the opening at the top and create pressure at the bottom/inside the barrel instead of trying to create the airflow at top with fans. If you try to create the draft with fans at the top of the barrel you will almost always create an astable turbulent vortex (as shown in the video ). Looking at the venturi,/Bernoulli ideas of pressure and fluidity you can build a firenado barrel with much more stable vortices.

I hear you. That is the plan for the next generation I am building over the next few months

I am hoping to find that out with the next generation I am working on building now. I learned alot about how I filter and purify the water so that it would last for years I would think.

That seems dangerous and that it will remove the natural and healthy curves that are needed in the spine.

@@RyanMake all this time, i thought it would be the ultimate spine relief 🥺 thanks for replyng

I will need to look into it more but those were some of my first thoughts

It was about $1000 all in when I made this. Working on the next generation. Let me know how your sessions at the commercial tank goes.

@@RyanMake will do, and you need 1000 pounds of salt?

@@Negative.headspace My design only used about 400lbs because I design it to be more human contoured reducing the amount of water an salt.

@@RyanMake do you have an email I could directly ask a few questions? Rather than talking through comments?

@@Negative.headspace If you go to my about page for my channel I have the most updated email there: ua-cam.com/users/RyanMakeabout

Yeah! Did you go there too?

@@RyanMake I went across the river. Friends went to MSOE though!

How often do you go float

It is not DIY because of the amount of work involved or because the instructions I gave in my build guide on instructabels were not clear?

That is a great mindset that I need to grow in. Thanks for the reminder!

Do you have a way to go float?

@@RyanMake no, afraid not. I imagine the possibilities are profound once you "disconnect" from your external senses. I have no way of procuring or making on as of right now.

Not sure what this means

@@RyanMake click on video and try it. you will be surprised at the VAST removal of filler noise.

I will have to give that a try. I am also working on getting better at recording my sound to have the audio quality be better

Hello Deborah I would think a small pool would work as long as it is big enough for you to stretch your body out. It sounds like you would use the pond liner to cover it while you are not using it. I would be reluctant to think the deck is designed to hold a lot of weight so that would be good to check into before you put a couple hundred pounds or water and epsom salt in a pool on it. Instead of a cover I was thinking you could spray paint some swimming goggles black to give you the perception of darkness I would recommend trying to do a groupon or something for a commercial float tank first to make sure it is something you find beneficial before commiting what little space you have.

@@RyanMake the heavy liner is to line the inside of the pool to protect it from the salt. My deck is a few inches off the ground, But I will check first to see if it will hold up. Thank You so Much.....

I can't find the video on you actually making your wooden tank,,, Am I just missing it, or is it gone?

These are all great questions. I have been slowly working on a plan that would use extruded aluminum for the frame which would dramatically cut down on the weight. One of my open projects is looking at the typical density of different parts of the body to determine where I could make the tank shallower. I am not sure I would recommend making it any narrower because it would be hard to not drift towards the sides. You could make the lid shallower. It would come down to your level of comfort in small spaces especially with heavy air from the humidity. Regarding the filter. Having something that grabs stray hair and skin cells is a must and then having something like UV or Ozone to kill the microbes is important. There is no way you could shower yourself clean enough to not need a filter in my estimation. Thanks for your questions. Let me know if you have more

​@@RyanMake Wow, I wasn't expecting such an in depth answer, thank you bud! Those are very interesting ideas. I love the way you think about design optimisation, the Colin Chapman of float tanks! Mapping the floating depth of the body is a good challenge. There are plenty of horizontal-shot photos of people floating, but I haven't found any in high buoyancy/salinity water. Maybe you could put blunt objects of various heights underneath you when you next float, swap them until they barely miss touching you, and by process of elimination find the minimum clearance of the tub then add a buffer for no-contact floating. I guess another variable is whether you prefer floating arms-by-side or having enough room to put them behind your head. But there's potential for enormous weight and water saving, and decrease in filtering and salt cost. As for weight of the tank itself, I would imagine some of the support struts could be substituted for nylon webbing strung between the frame - I've seen this used to create solid platforms for minimum weight cost for applications like aircraft, or climbing sleeping platforms. The wooden support panelling could be substituted for fibreglass or a lighter grade of ply (with a sealed coating or laminate). Hollow aluminium sounds perfect for the frame but it's pretty expensive for a budget build. I wonder how well strong PVC piping would do? In the east, thick bamboo is used in construction as load bearing scaffolding. Maybe laminated heavy duty dense foamboard? Plenty of people have built beds and furniture out of it, and foam can be cut with a wire to achieve organic shapes which could suit your idea of optimising depth. Using arches and triangular shapes in the frame would give more strength for your buck, and if the water weight decreased the frame could be a lot less substantial too. I wonder what would happen if you plugged this into 3D generative design software and allowed it to calculate its version of the ideal frame? Unfortunately I don't have access to that kind of thing. If it's not going to be loadbearing, the lid could be made of a very light rigid material like coroplast panels (free from local campaign signs) which is great as it's very tough stuff and not a good substrate for mold. With insulation on the top to trap a lot of the rising heat and a water resistant sound-absorbing panels, like a solid foam or plastic egg-crate (perhaps treated with an anti-mildew solution). I think plastic egg crate would be a very cheap, mold resistant option. How effective is your lid's soundproofing? An advantage of a lighter lid would be a much easier opening and closing, eliminating the need for heavy duty hinges or pistons - magnets on a pole or a clever balance and extension limit could hold it in an open position. Ah okay, I'll definitely include a filter, thanks. Here in the UK, energy prices have shot up - what do you reckon is the easiest, most efficient option for filtering? I don't care about achieving absolute pristine water. Thanks for the ideas and the great tutorial!

Hello Jessica. The water bed heater I used has a thermometer and thermostat for controlling the temperature. The tarp on the bottom should last for years. The tarp.on the top I have replaced with corrugated plastic paneling because it looked and worked better. As long as I run the filter with the UV light everyday and shock treat the water with hydrogen peroxide it lasts for a long time. I had to decommission the tank for a while before I reached the useful life of the water. Great questions.
