Inside the lab, it's a standard translucent-white, LDPE-plastic wash bottle, 500ml/16oz, measuring 2-3/4" dia x 6-3/4 tall with a screwcap and a right-angle, 5/16" dia nozzle. Outside the lab, it's so pleasing to squeeze and squirt with that some of us keep them in the kitchen.

For people who don't live in Portland or Austin but still want to keep it weird, this 4-1/4” tall x 3-3/4” dia white coffee mug says “Keep it Weird” in black and gold on both sides above a lovely illustration of a duck-billed platypus (ornithorhynchus anatinus). Impress your office mates or add a touch of kitsch to your kitchen.

Stethos is Greek for chest. Indeed you can scope your stethos with this stethoscope, or your friend's or your dog's. But it works equally well for picking up any sound being transmitted through a solid medium. Listen to the air flowing through the heating ducts, the water in the pipes, the sounds of machinery, the termites munching on the floor joists!! The color does vary so we will select from what's currently available. We've had blue, teal, red, black, burgundy, green and purple, but there may be other colors yet to be seen! A great discovery device whether for biology or other pursuits. Not of professional quality, but not just a toy.

We’ll say. Herr Erlenmeyer of flask fame was handled Richard August Carl Emil Erlenmeyer, but you can call him Emil. Our Borosilicate glass version of his flask holds 500ml, and is graduated from 200ml to 400ml in 50ml increments. Stands 3-3/4” tall with a 4-1/4” dia bottom narrowing to 2-1/2” at the top, which also makes it a hard-to-spill coffee cup.

Stainless steel mortar and pestle set. Mortar measures 5-1/4” dia x 3” on a 4” dia attached saucer-like base. Holds approx 250ml. Pestle is 6-3/4” long with 1-1/4” and 2” dia heads. Nice for the lab, or for folks who want everything in their stainless steel kitchen to be stainless steel. You know who you are. And we salute you.

This digital instant-read lab thermometer measures 8-1/4" long total with a 5" long stainless-steel probe that's resistant to most chemicals. Has a removable cover with a pocket clip, on/off button, and C or F readings (-50 to +300C, -58 to +572F). Button-cell battery included.

In the lab or craft room, the uses for this 250cc (8-oz) translucent wash bottle are legion. Measures 5-1/2" tall x 2-1/4" dia with a nozzle that points straight up for 2-1/2” then makes a 90-degree turn for another 3”. Has a very small opening that you could snip to make larger if you were squirting some kind of artsy foam, gel, glue or paint instead of washing out test tubes.

Who among us isn't? This set of lab tongs measures 10” long in stainless steel, and is designed specifically to pick up stuff in, yes, labs. If you want to use them for other purposes—canning jars, brats on the grill, dead rodents—be assured that there are no tong police. Just use a different pair for each job, eh?
