Does any one know how to make liquid oil chamber cell that can be used in kaleidoscopes. I know how to make the kaleidoscope. However, I can not find the directions for making the liquid oil chamber. I have heard that mineral oil and silicone is used for making the liquid, but what are the measurements ? Also what is the chamber made of ? Where can I find these supplies ? I appreciate any help that anyone can give me. This is a really great site ! Thanks. Glory | ||

I would expect normal clear mineral oil would work fine. You can mix oils of different viscosities to get the thickness you like. You can seal the plastic tubes by heat-welding them while they are immersed in the oil, so you don't get bubbles. |
