So, you are an average [[Assistant|Greytide]] and you want to be a Walter White. How do you do it?
So, you are an average [[Assistant|Greytide]] and you want to be a Walter White. How do you do it?
First off, you're gonna wanna get these things to get started with ghetto chem.
* [[File:Beaker.png]] A few beakers, soda cans, bottles, etc
* [[File:Table.png]] A couple of tables to store your beakers, so you don't spill your shit on the floor
Most importantly, without this you dont have ghetto chem:
* [[File:Blender.png]] An all in one grinder, to grind up shit for your <s>meth</s> experimental chemistry
Optionally:
* [[File:Assistant.png]] A couple friends (that is, if you have any)
* [[File:Mixer1.gif]] A ChemMaster 3000 to separate and bottle chemicals.


tl;dr go to the holodeck and boot up the medical program! Remember that you can use matches, lighters and igniters to heat containers as well.
=== Knowledge ===
* You need a decent understanding of [[Guide_to_chemistry|chemistry]]: You are going to be cooking without the luxury of a [[Medical_items#Chem_Dispenser|chem dispenser]] after all, so you will need many additional steps for your workarounds.
* Without a method of analysing / separating chemicals you will even need to mix blindly, so you better know the reactions by heart if you don't want to end up with unhealthy impurities in your product.
* Make a plan of what to get and where to get it. Don't be afraid to make a small shopping-list.
* Think of <s>excuses</s> valid reasons and explanations ahead of time. The [[Detective]] will try to do his best to prevent you from learning more about chemistry, so be sure to not get locked up due to some unfortunate missunderstanding.

|[[File:Beaker.png]]
|Containers
|Mandatory
|A few containers for mixing your substances like beakers, soda cans, bottles, etc
|Glasses and bowls from bar / kitchen, cans from vending-machines. Large 100u beakers can be bought in the station-store and make mixing a lot easier. You could also grow your own wood in the garden and make some buckets.
|-
|[[File:Blender.png]]
|Grinding-equipment
|Mandatory
|Needed to extract your chemicals from all kind of things. You can either go the long route and craft a [[Guide_to_construction#Planks|mortar]] and [[Guide_to_construction#Plasteel|pestle]], which can only grind one item at a time though. Or you go for it and steal an [[Medical_items#Reagent_Grinder|all in one grinder]].
| The [[Bartender]], the [[Cook]], the [[Botanist]] and the [[Chemist]] have an [[Medical_items#Reagent_Grinder|all in one grinder]], but will probably notice eventually. Remember that they can be bolted down, so you better bring a wrench.
|-
|[[File:Zippo.png]]
|Heating-equipment
|Mandatory
|You can use lighters and matches to heat containers for certain recipes, and use them to burn certain things to make ingredients, like burning paper for ash.
|Smoking-vending-machines, sometimes there are lighters in arrivals, the dorms or the bar.
|-
|[[File:Table.png]]
|Tables
|Optional
|You are going to be handling quite a few containers, so having a table is nice, so you don't spill your shit on the floor. Just make sure to remember which container is which when you put them all on the table
| Craft them or move and reassemble them, using the tools found in the tool-storage
|-
|[[File:Mixer1.gif]]
|Separation-equipment
|Optional
|A [[Medical_items#ChemMaster_3000|ChemMaster 3000]] / [[General_items#Condiment_Dispenser|Condiment Dispenser]] so you don't have to mix blindly anymore. This is going to make ghetto-chemistry so much easier since you can use it to determine, separate and bottle chemicals.
|The [[Cook]], the [[Botanist]] and the [[Chemist]] have one. Bring a wrench to move it and try to be stealthy - you are going to serve some time in the brig if you get caught.
|-
|[[File:Assistant.png]]
|Friends
|Optional
|A couple friends (that is, if you have any). Do not underestimate the time needed to get all the necessary equipment and ingredients without raising suspicion.
|Talk to [[Assistant|anyone]] lurking around toolstorage or the bar without having the [[Bartender]] or any other bystanders call security on you. If you are really desperate and feel a bit lucky, you can always ask the [[Clown]] for help.
