My mom works in a pediatric doctor's office and the doctor knows that I tinker a little bit. He gave me this old centrifuge that has just been collecting dust for years, along with the tubes that go inside.
What are some neat things that I can make or synthesize using a centrifuge?
(I know that's not what it's for, but I'm curious, dammit.)
centrifuges are important for pretty much all basic molecular bio protocols, although these days people usually use rotors that fit smaller tubes and have variable speeds rather than a single on/off switch.
You can synthesize a colloidal suspension of tiny dicks. All you need is maltodextrin and yogurt

you could buy some ficoll for 200 dollars and get your mom or someone in the office to draw some blood. Layer the blood on ficoll and spin it down. You'll get a separation of cells in pic if done correctly

You should enrich uranium and build a nuclear warhead!

You should shit in it and turn it on to see what happens.

1. You can separate out your own dna.
2. Grind cocodamol pills, soak n spin. Bingo! Hit of codeine.
