@hrefna running an amateur chemistry lab at home? I had to look up Natron.. I think I may have made it in a hi-school chemistry class while making soap. Is that your goal too?
As a kid I used to do my own fun but reckless chemistry experiments in a small room in our attic. Looking mostly to separate dangerous substances that explode or burn from common household materials. It is luck that my parents' house didn't go up in flames.
