Re: pipettes Thanks to Elise and

[Guest guest]

I get my plastic pipettes in large quantities from

thechemistrystore.com. My husband gets some of his soapmaking supplies

from them. I can't vouch for the quality of any of their ingredients

because I haven't used them. They seem geared towards soap-making. But

you can't really mess up a plastic pipette.

Found mine at American Science and Surplus....

1ml graduated serological pipettes...These are way thinner than most

eyedropper barrels...

At one time they had both plastic and glass....

Last time I was there....they didn't have any.....With them it's a hit

or miss thing.....

I usually cut a pipette into three lengths with the scale on

them.....and use the graduations, ignoring the numbering...

From back in science class when one had to cut glass tubing....

One makes a scratch on one side with a triangular file..... --

Elise & ,

Thank you both for these leads - no, I wouldn't be too worried about

fraudulent plastic pipettes, Elise.

And , thanks for confirming that the numbering is backwards -

and for that nifty trick of making three sizes from one dropper.

Sorry to have lagged behind in acknowledging your help - these look

like yet good resources and I bet I'll find more than just pipettes of

interest at these sites.
