    This was amazing. TKOR hasn't been that great in recent years and i was only still subscribed because in memory of Grant. Once Nate and Callie left that's when TKOR really took a turn for the worst. Hopefully this right here keeps going because I loved this.

      Legos are made of ABS plastic so it’s the same thing as the abs pipe. Acetone is a chemical solvent used to bond abs as well so if you want your legos to never come apart brush a little nail polish remover on the mating surfaces and they will fuse together.

    Me and my best bud did this all the time growing up. We liked making torches and stuff with it, but you should always be super careful. Don't EVER grab lit napalm or try to light it with another pile of burning napalm like you see in the video. It can be extremely adhesive and burn you through protective equipment.

    The acetone tends to spill because you are holding the can upside down when pouring. The spout should be at the top to allow air to flow in without obstruction. Also causes less sloshing as the liquid pours from it's surface.
    Your Dad should have taught you that when you did your first oil change.

    I’m 21 now and I was watching grant back when I was maybe 13-14 years old, this new guy is awesome! Bring out the Lego napalm! I’ve seen other comments about this but he even sounds like grant sometimes, just turned on notifications!

    This is insane. Thought this would never happen. Wonder what happened behind the scenes

    The acetone won’t spill if you pour with the spout at the top don’t turn it on its side with the spout at the bottom you’ll always get a burp, causing you to spill
