Surpies (regular A.S.&S. fans) know that there is nothing better than a Petri dish for holding small parts for a model, beads for a craft item, or specimens from a field trip, unless it’s something that works like a Petri dish but costs less. We’ve got that!! And they’re so inexpensive you that you can buy enough for those few odd nails, screws, bolts, and tourmalines. These heavy–duty, clear–plastic bead containers are about 3/4” deep. They stack, with the bottom of one dish becoming the lid of the one below it. The 2–3/4” rounds come in a pack of (4) with (4) lids, so they can be used separately. The pack of (12) 1–1/4” squares comes with (2) lids, so they can become (2) stacks.

Microscope glassware for examination of blood, pond water, mold, and other minutiae. All of the microscope slides are optically clear glass 26mm x 76mm (about 1" x 3"), between 1mm and 1.2mm thick. The well slides, of course, have a concave well to hold a drop of liquid. Our each is a package of (12) well slides, or a box of (72) standard slides with ground edges. Cover glasses are the smaller and very thin pieces of glass used as the top of the glass slide sandwich. They are often used temporarily by simply dropping them onto a drop of liquid to flatten and spread it and to minimize evaporation. More confident microscopists will cement them in place to permanently preserve a specimen. Our each is a package of (100) cover glasses 18 mm square, #1 thickness (0.13mm to 0.17mm). If you need one, you need both.

The handle of this 14-1/4" x 10-3/8" x 4-1/8" plastic basket is comfortably high and divides it in half lengthwise. The basket is light blue with a solid bottom and vented sides. With our pack of (3), you can fill one with cleaning supplies, one with tape and ribbon to be stored near your wrapping paper, and one with all those tools you're going to find when you clean out of the junk drawer. And you'll like it that they nest when empty so, until you get that organized, they won't take up a lot of space!

They start out as flat vinyl sheets, 11" x 10", but grab them by the handles on the sides and they become small shopping bags--like those string thingies--almost a foot deep and expandable. Toss them in your luggage, bring wine to dinner in them, or just pretend you're a French housewife. You'll get (3). Let us surprise you with translucent green, blue, neon pink, alarming orange, or some combination therof.

These are left over from those scrumptious hot meals that hospitals serve. Use the trays and lids when you're under the weather, or serving someone who is. Mix and match them, but carefully, since the round lids fit some bottoms better than others-and the 8" square x 2-7/8" deep lid don't fit nothin' we've got. On the other hand, we think the trays also make perfect indestructible flower pot saucers, and the lids, which have recessed handles so they can sit on their heads (which is more than you can do), would make nice wide planters themselves. Some of them say they can take heat and some say they can't but we're pretty sure they're talking about hospital ovens because they all do just fine warming up tortillas in the office microwave. Assorted unmatched colors (our choice).

We just wish there was something, anything, to do around here that required this thing, on account of it's so cool. Our newest Helping Hand has a pair of alligator clips on swiveling arms, likewise a 2-1/4" dia x 1.5X magnifier plus an LED flashlight on a gooseneck. Everything swivels every way there is and tightens with little thumbscrews-and some of the configurations look like it's maybe alive, and from Venus. Jewelry makers? Diamond cutters? Forensic scientists? Maybe we'll start making small electronics, or tying flies.
