Ah, 'right hand side', now I understand! Thanks for the answers. I assume these can be reused a lot of times without deforming the pot or lid? Is the lid easy to handle e.g. taking it off while doing sterile work? Might order some as the ones I'm using now do easily warp and are a pain to get open.

Sorry haha I can see how that is confusing! I use it in work all the time just never notice it.
They should reuse ok. I bought that many that I still haven't had to reuse them yet. But they look like new no deformities.
The lid is actually very easy to take off compared to similar tubs. At the start I thought it might be a contam risk as it feels a bit loose when it's on but I've found no problem. In fact it makes work in still air box very easy. I can hold tub on its side with lid slightly open in one hand while swinging the scalpel in the other!

I don't think I have had those, but have had several other size Satco brand containers and all are really good and have held up well over time.

Here, any good local places for tyvek? Or any filter material for that matter. Also does it need to be a minimum thickness as I can get tyvek paper but not sure if it'll give enough filter?

Nope I use big ball masons, people have been using tyvek suits for jars for years, not as good as sfd, its not the best ill admit but it works and if your careful youll be fine and its alot less of a fuck around than messing with polyfiller. I didnt realise my weight was missing till id done the batch couldnt find it again but thought fuck it see what happens, it did help that my agar work is on point and general SAB work is good too.

Glad I found this thread! I've ordered some of those SATCO pots. Not sure I needed 50 of them but maybe they'll get used for other things too. I'd attempted to make Pasty Plates with some tubs from Poundland but turns out they're nearly a pint size!
I got a dozen preserving jars in pint and quart size from the Range, and also other myc-handy stuff like plastic boxes, verm, vinyl gloves, alcohol wipes and picked up extra tin foil and cling film while I was there.

Tyvek:
Less than 1 micron. That's specific good for paint shit for microbes. Also afaik UK post offices dont supply tyvek envelopes like they get in the states
MPT:
From the M3 MPT data sheet
SFD:
 0.22 micron
Couldn't find any data on polyfill since it's not specifically designed as a filter material but for a cheap alternative to sfd's you cant go wrong (imo)
Itd be interesting to see when bod posted the comment you quoted, I'd say it's a few years old at least.
Like I said, fuck tyvek, but if it works for you, that's dead on

Yea I been warned off micropore and my current results would indicate yes it is shit.
I'm currently using filter material from a now defunct eBay company ukmushroomsupplies. I'm assuming it's like that ez felt stuff that can only be got in the states - resembles ironed polyfil.
I'm going to try tyvek and polyfil too and then decide what best for me

I used 2 layers of micropore for months without issue... Worth mentioning it was the actual 3M brand (for real micropore shitz) and not the cheap paper tape knock offs you see...

I just dont see the point in spending money on a PC, the time and effort to sterilize grains and the cost to run the PC for x amount of hours only to risk all that with shitty filters.
A 90mm sfd is just over a fiver on Ebay if you cut discs the size of a penny out of one you can get about 9 out of it that's like 50p each, and they last forever

I’ve been using tyvek suits on jars for years too without any problems. Two squares per jar, screwed in to the lid threads. I’ve always thought it works pretty well. I’ve almost brought sfd’s a few times but for the price of one delivered to my house that I could get a few jars out of I can get a xxxl tyvek suit that will probably do well over a hundred. Plus I hate siliconing anything and can’t be arsed with polyfill either.

It does say good for mold remediation which mean capturing mold spores Im not disagreeing with you sfds are better but tyvek does work and in comparison price wise, unless your producing vast quantities constantly theres no real use in spending so much money on something like sfds if your only doing once, twice a year. You might try it and not like it so then youve got some expensive coasters basically. Posted 2 months ago

Bod doesnt say use tyvek its the best, infact the opposite im not gonna post his quotes to make myself sound smart, but he does say it works ok just wouldnt trust multiple pc cycles due to it being made of a material that doesnt like the heat but thats why you buy a suit thousands of little squares.
Btw i dont use a lid size peice, i drill the lids stick a square on about 1x1cm for GE.
