Chocolate gun dispenses edible molten chocolate----make money online

hello I'd like to show you something

that I built this is a chocolate gun and

it works just like a regular hot glue

gun but it dispenses completely edible

semi-sweet chocolate and we can stick

our house together like this when I was

a kid I looked forward every year to

building a gingerbread house and

recently on Twitter and Marie Thomas

posted a photo of building a gingerbread

house with her kids and admitted to

using hot glue guns to hold the house

together and then someone responded

jokingly well as their chocolate or

candy in that hot glue gun and that gave

me the idea Wow wouldn't it be awesome

to have a chocolate gun so let me tell

you how I built this the first part of

the project is to make some chocolate

sticks that we can use in the gun and

since I wanted to use a standard glue

gun in this project I wanted the sticks

to be the same size as standard glue

sticks so to do this I started with a

standard wax glue stick and mounted it

on pins and then secured the whole thing

into a plastic dish I mixed up some

silicone casting compound by mass and

then added that to the dish so that it

would submerge the two glue sticks after

curing overnight I took the casting out

of the plastic dish and then cut off the

top on a BAM saw I pulled out the glue

sticks using a screw and some compressed

air and this actually is easier than you

might think

next I melted some chocolate morsels in

a glass measuring cup and filled up a

plastic syringe with the molten

chocolate and then used a tube on the

end of the syringe and filled up the

mold from the bottom to the top and the

idea here was that I didn't want any air

bubbles in the chocolate so if I filled

it from the bottom to the top using the

syringe method all the air would be

pushed out the top after letting the

chocolate solidify I again used

compressed air to get the solidified

chocolate sticks out of the mold and

again this worked surprisingly well so

now with a supply of chocolate sticks

the next job is to modify a standard hot

glue gun I used a brand new one of

course so I didn't have any hot glue

residue left in the gun and the main

modification here is just to change the

temperature at which the gun operates

so normally hot glue would be much much

too hot for chocolate so what I did is

take the gun apart and add a temperature

sensor to the metal barrel and we're

going to assume that the entire barrel

is about the same temperature and also

that as soon as we apply power to the

gun it will start heating up so this way

we can put an external temperature

controller and I can set the temperature

controller for anything that I want now

that we have a temperature sensor right

on the barrel to melt the chocolate I

was using about 100 degrees F as you can

see it works really well especially for

gingerbread houses the construction is

surprisingly strong I mean it cools down

pretty quick it's a little bit slower

than regular hot glue it takes a little

bit longer for it to solidify but it's

quite controllable we can glue the

candies onto the roof without being

messy about it and even make simple

letters on the silicone mat the

chocolate sticks are a little more

brittle than standard hot glue so that

causes a feeding problem here

sometimes if this idea we're going to be

commercialized you'd probably add

something to the chocolate to make it a

little bit more compliant so that it

doesn't shatter it doesn't break in the

feeding mechanism or maybe just redesign

the feeding mechanism a little bit okay

have fun see you next time bye
