 A solution is made out of dish soap, water, and glycerin (to help prolong the life of the bubble). The metal ring is dipped into the solution (a pie plate works well to hold it) and placed into the test stand. The projector is aimed at the bubble film and the reflection is focused onto a distant screen using the lens.  A solution is made out of dish soap, water, and glycerin (to help prolong the life of the bubble).

 +Optionally, you can put the yellow filter in the projector. Then instead of seeing a multicolored interference pattern, a yellow and black pattern will be visible. This may be easier to explain than the multicolored pattern, though it'll be less pretty. ​

 Students must be reminded that the lens has inverted the image. Depending on the solution you use, the thinnest portion of the film will therefore be seen at the bottom on the screen as an extended black area just before the bubble breaks. Students must be reminded that the lens has inverted the image.

-General Location:   ​ 
-There are many parts for this demo and nothing is specifically set aside. There are many pictures below that will hopefully aid in constructing this demonstration. This demonstration could be made with simple house-hold products.
