Bone Up On Anatomy
You're not going to blow money on an actual human skeleton, are you? Consider that for a tenth of the price you can get an anatomically accurate skeleton done in plastic. This model is male (judging by the hips) and has many articulated joints-jaw, shoulder, knee, etc. Its small size (33") makes it practical for classroom use, since it can be passed around the room. Other nice touches include discrete neck vertebrae, a sectioned skull, and very little "flash" from the plastic molds. It also comes with a metal display stand, weighted at the bottom to prevent spills. Yes, some concessions had to be made because of the size and price, but this is still an invaluable teaching tool, and quite a nice decoration for those with morbid minds.

TEAse
We were going to call these tall, graceful bottles tea vessels because of the charming Chinese characters on them. Each is almost 11” tall with a bulbous bottom and a long, slender neck, a 7/8” ID mouth, and a slight lip. Each bottle holds approx 25 ounces, and is painted light brown, dark brown, or dark green (our choice) on the outside, with tasteful gold calligraphy. We had the charming characters translated, and found a brand name and some variation of the words “Wonderful Liquor.” So we’re not calling them tea vessels. But they’re still great bottles.

Wonder Magnet
Absolutely magnificent magnet!! Very strong - we estimate it has a 35 lb. pull - neodymium-iron-boron (rare earth) that is only about 3/4” x 1-1/8” x 7/16” thick. It is actually trapezoidal, so the 1-1/8” dimension slants from 1” to 1-1/4”. They are pretty clean take-outs, painted silver, white or black, and may have some very small chips. Be careful!! These guys will murder a computer or audio/video tape. A pair will leap into a deadly embrace from over 6” apart and may knock chips off themselves from the force of their impact!! A single magnet holds (4) of our catalogs (11 oz, 5/16” thick) to the side of a steel file cabinet. We cannot say too much in favor of this magnet!!

Tough Paper Trays
And lots of ‘em. These coated paper trays are microwave-safe. In fact, they’re very much like the ones used for some commercial frozen entrees, but we draw the line at claiming they’re food-ready or food-safe. At these prices, though, they’d make great lab trays, paint palettes or craft containers for schools—or any place else you need a lot of tough little disposable trays. They measure 8” x 6-3/8” x 1-3/16” deep and are off-white inside, bright orange/red on the outside.

This funnel looks delicate, but it's Pyrex® so heat won't hurt it. The tough little glass funnel has a 75mm (approx 3") ID mouth and an 80mm long neck with a 6mm ID fluted outlet. No markings.

Half-Ounce Buckets
Half-ounce buckets with no handles. OK, medicine cups. Graduated in 1/2-tsp increments up to (3) tsps (1/2 oz) but would hold (5) tsps if you were careful not to spill. Translucent plastic, 1-1/2" tall and slightly flared to 1-7/16" dia at the top. Helpfully embossed "read label directions" and "wash after using." Would also make nice wastebaskets for contemporary dollhouses, itty-bitty Jell-O® molds, or diet cookie cutters.

Un-Bunsen Burner
So you don't have a gas jet in the garage? You don't think Margie and Ted are old enough to handle the high temperatures of a Bunsen burner? Our alcohol lamps are the answer. They burn alcohol (available at the hardware store), and are hot enough to boil water, to soften glass tubing for bending, and to generate the chemical reactions generally called for in science projects. The lamp is 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" glass bowl with a wick assembly that brings the whole to a height of 4-1/2" and comes with a handy little metal lid/extinguisher.

Wick Wacky?
Getting tired of buying them and trimming them and losing them? Get rid of wicks altogether with this nifty little alcohol burner with a copper capillary tube in place of a cotton wick. Burns 90ml of denatured alcohol and comes with a heat shield (packed inside the reservoir) and a burner cap. Don't forget to remove the little rubber plug - it's there to cover the holes in the copper tube when not in use. And this is lab equipment, so resist the temptation to use it under a chafing dish; initially, it flares up a tad more than is good for Swedish meatballs.

Peculiar Injection Vials
We've never seen anything quite like these little clear glass vials, which means they must have myriad uses, particularly at this price. The large one is 1-3/4" tall x 15/16" dia with a shoulder and a 1/2" ID lipped mouth on the top, leading into a 1" deep conical cavity. The bottom has a 5/8" mouth, with an internal lip, and opens into a cavity around the little conical reservoir. So you can fill either end. Which would hold maybe a couple of ccs one way, or 1/4 oz the other way. The little one is the same, but is 1-9/16" tall x 5/8" dia and a 1/4" ID mouth on top, 7/16" on the bottom. We're thinking obscure lab experiments, or chimneys for streetlamps in model railroads. Or something.
