Making Your Crystals

Boil the water
Stir in the sugar, a little at a time, until it no longer dissolves and there is a little at the bottom
Add a few drops of food coloring to the water, if you want colored crystals
Add the water to the jar
Tie the string to the butter knife
Set the knife on top of the glass jar so that the string hangs in the jar without touching the sides or bottom
Set the jar somewhere safe
Check back in a day and you should see some crystals already growing
Let the crystals grow until they have reached the desired size
Remove the string and allow crystals to dry

You will need
1 cup water
3 cups table sugar (sucrose)
1 clean glass jar
1 butter knife
String
1 pan or bowl for boiling water and making solution
1 spoon
Food coloring (optional)

Bleach and ammonia, obviously. Kills you and if you try post the recipe as something legitimate, earns you a ban.

>always with the string and butterknife

Every time.

Use a couple sticks tied together like a cross. bamboo skewers work great. Then you have something similar to the OP image.

I always wondered what would happen if you left your hand in the solution instead of string. Would it make me an anime protagonist?

Doesn't actually kill you or create mustard gas, common misconception. Does produce toxic chemicals, but nothing life threatening. Still, along with exploding spoons this should rightly get you a ban.

This is more /ck/ related, but could you put some extracts in the solution to add flavor to the colored sugar water?

I've got green food coloring, and mint extract, and I'd probably use a wood dowel instead of a string.

Breathing it fucks you up a great deal. I've had whiffs of it from other projects and there's no way I'd want to get a lungful like how the instructions would let you end up getting.

>>1150214
Yes, that should work to some extent.
