do any of you guys know what kind of equipment i would need to start a biotech lab in my basement and how much it would cost?

probably an estimated $100 Million. Plus make sure you have all of your EPA paperwork filled out.
Maybe you should get an attorney too.
"Biotech lab" is not very specific. Depending on what you want to do prices range between, say 10000 (if you do not want to do much more than PCR) to the millions. Some basic equipments are not that expensive, but the running costs are. And if you want to do some mass spec or anything more specialized, or if you want to cultivate something prices go way up. Also, the running costs tend to be extremely high.
In addition, quite a number of experiments fall under certain safety laws.
well this "project" of mine isn't exactly going to be public if you get my drift. So basiclly I can do whatever I want as long as it's secret. I basically want to be one of the pioneers of decentralizing scientific research and making lab equipment cheap enough so an average person would be able to engineer organs, limbs, etc cheaply.
That is when science won't be held down by ethics and morals and this will be the start of the next revolution in science that dwarfs any other previous scientific revolutions MUHAHAHAHAH!!!!:xctd:
Sorry if I sound crazy lol, but in all seriousness that is basically my life goal, so from now on I will dedicate my life to it.
That's sure not a realistic goal. Besides, you're going to have to devote at least 15% of your entire life just going to school - and that's sure not cheap either. Sorry.

Oh, mercy! Who would have thought that this whole science caper was so easy that the average person will be able to cheaply engineer new organs and limbs in their own basements? What an age we live in.
You truly do, but that’s okay. Just for a laugh, assuming you already had all the equipment and reagents you want, what would be your first experiments?
Well, for starters, I'd suggest a replacement human brain - since the one he's currently using is apparently malfunctioning in a few regions.
if it was mulfunctioning in few regions...the probability that he would be posting here is small enough to say that the regions of his brains are most likely functioning well.
Oh, gimmie a break!! ANY idiot can get on a computer and post garbage. We've got several here that prove that very, very often!:bugeye:
well than they are not really idiots...because one would have to recall information on how to click were and what and type in www.sciforums.com and log into here proving of their superior intelligence...
Superior?!?!?!? Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!!!!!!!!! What a joke YOU are!
And what a joke most every human is as well. Sad isn't it, we live in an age of instant information but few people actually use it to improve themselves or gain knowledge but use it as a lever to argue over things.
