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 lamp is the answer. It burns alcohol (available at the hardware store), and is 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 thick glass, shaped somewhat like a squared-off ink well, 3-1/2" tall w/ cap x 2-1/2" and comes with a screw-on wick holder and a handy little lid/extinguisher, both metal.

It looks as though it should be used for administering laudanum! A 30mL, 1-1/4" sq x 3" tall clear glass bottle, it has thick molded sides and a heavy lip: very antique in appearance. It is stoppered with a red(!) rubber stopper which is the squeeze bulb for the glass dropper tube inside. A real eye catcher, but give it a good wash please. It clearly is not sterile.

Easy to do, and important these days. We’ve been pointing this non-contact infrared thermometers at just about every forehead we see. Reads in one second with a digital display in C or F. Measures body temps of 89.6 to 108.5 F (32.0 to 42.5 C) with a resolution of 0.18 F (0.1 C) and color changing backlit display to warn you when hot is too hot. Normal operating temperature (ambient air) range is 60.8 to 95 F (16.0 to 35.0 C), and the device should be held between 0.4" and 2" inches from those foreheads. Want to fry an egg on your car dash? Switch it over to surface mode to check, well, surface temps. Couldn’t be easier to use, or more important in times like these. Plus, when this is all over, you’ll never have to stick a thermometer under your tongue, or anywhere else, again. Approved by the FDA as soon as you add a pair of "AAA" batteries.

Eye dropper, tongue dropper, test tube dropper, petri dish dropper, anywhere dropper. Use this 3" glass dropper, with a rubber squeeze bulb to drop small amounts of liquid wherever you think they should go. You will have to measure by counting drops, though, because there are no markings on it. Also, it is called "3" because that is about how long the glass tube is. Overall, it is 4" long.

Clip this little lighted scope onto your smart phone and use the phone's zoom feature to show images (and take photos) up to 30X magnification. Our Optics Guru Paul says it has no business working this well for under ten bucks. Measures 2-5/8" x 1-1/4" and comes with (3) replaceable button-cell batteries for the light. Fits most major brands, like iPhones and Androids and Windows (oh, my!), and probably most tablets, too.

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.

Sometimes at the end of a long day of typing, our fingers just need to lie down for a while, so we grab one of these finger cots and….sorry, we were challenged to write a clean finger-cot joke. Never mind. These are your standard, natural rubber latex finger cots, aka “sheaths,” size small. Use them to protect your fingers from paper cuts, dryness, chapping, irritating liquids, whatever. Our each is a box of (144). Gross, you say? Yeah, kind of.

When you peer through your magnifying glass at this specimen, or focus your microscope on it, even at the lower magnifications which work best, you're looking at one big bug. Make that (4) big bugs. The insects are real, encased in clear acrylic blocks 1-3/4" x 1-1/4" x up to 11/16" thick, and ready for inspection. Set 1 includes a scorpion, giant ant, wasp and a flower bug. Set 2 is a cricket, locust, yellow leaf beetle, and crab. No, not a crab louse or a crab spider, but definitely a crab ugly.

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.
