I moved to another country to my wife's place and I don't have access to my old basement anymore, where I planned to start doing chemistry. Even though I got a bunch of glassware, I don't have a place to cook. (the wife knows, just doesn't want it in the house) Where do you think would be a cheap/safe location to make a lab? Some ideas are using a shipping container, renting Airbnbs and using them to cook, an RV (lol).
Since I'm also going to use a tent to keep the smells to a minimum (butter smell from gaba to ghb), something like a greenhouse, the only requirement is a ventilation shaft/open air. The power/gas/water can be portable.
I was wondering which plastics are the best when constructing this tent? PVC, PP, PE, or nylon. Are there any others?
Lastly, is there a list/guide on improvised lab equipment, for non critical things, like turning my dropping funnel into a pressure equalized one by adding a few pieces of tubing? This is another reason why I need to know what materials are chemical safe, hence the plastic question. My old glassware guy was busted for theft so I need to macgyver some parts.
Thank you for your help!
