Paperclip
What is the paperclip for?


 * Some kinds of string curl up and stick to the side of the jar, or float on the surface. The paperclip is intended to pull the string straight down into the water.

washing soda
Tell me one more time: why do we suggest washing soda (sodium carbonate) ?

Why not something edible like one or more of the following? --DavidCary (talk) 02:01, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
 * sugar, producing rock sugar
 * baking soda (Sodium bicarbonate)
 * salt crystals
 * ... um ... are there other edible crystals?


 * I rewrote it so it's no longer a toxic crystal making experiment, but a tasty one. Hurrah!
