Teeny, tiny graduated cylinder

[C. D. Keth]

I found this at a flea market today and just thought it was really cool. I've never seen one this small. I also bought one that's 25mL that should be a super useful size.

Is that glass?

I have a few, although not that small. They come in handy when you mix your own chemicals from scratch.

Yeah, pyrex. It's so skinny a bic pen won't quite fit inside.

I need to measure out acetone regularly (9 to 18 mls at a time). A bit of a disaster using a plastic graduated cyclinder the first time. Got the acetone out before it actually started to deform. And acetone dissolved away the painted graduations (and numbers) on the outside of my glass pipette (25ml).

But glass is very nice! I have a couple glass ones that narrow size -- no pretty red paint, though!

I have a 10ml and a 25ml, they come in handy. Looks like a good flea market find. Mine were given to me by a chemist friend.

Cool and Made in USA!

10ml is a little small for a graduate and large for a pipette. I use a 10ml glass pipette in that range, but having a graduate also would be nice.

Of course, you can always use a syringe for measuring small amounts (not to take away from the coolness of the antique graduated cylinder...). I have both plastic and glass in a number of sizes and find them indispensable for measuring small quantities of liquid chemicals.


Best,

What is that device you have? It looks like a Jobo of some description but I can't see where the tank would sit?

Geez, I weigh all these small amounts and also developer and water when mixing working developer..
