Keeping needles clean made easy.
    #1933290 -


I't simple: Find a sponge that is very resilent while wet...A dish sponge wont work...Use a car washing sponge or better yet a cosmetic sponge...All you do is cut a sponge slightly longer than the needle and about 1" thick (it will be a long rectangle ). Wet the sponge with alcohol...squeeze out excess alcohol...then slide the sponge over the needle....Now when you inject and remove the needle from a jar the sponge bounces back to keep the needle covered and moist with alcohol...Just to make sure I always squeeze and twist the sponge on the needle to make sure it is wet before each injection.

thats got to be the most innovative thing i've heard all day. i think i might have to use this tonight. use regular rubbing alcohol for this? will this elliminate the need to flam sterilize?

I've never flame sterilized and never had a problem either.....rubbing alcohol seems to work just fine

I can think of 2 things that may be a problem with this tho....first of all I would imagine it would be hard to get the needle into a small hole with the sponge over it....and 2 you'd get rubbing alcohol into your substrate...not sure what kinda problems that would cause tho since I've never put alcohol into substrate :laugh:

This sounds like it would work. Magash you fuckin roxors!!

P.S. I imagine it would be kind of difficult to get the needle into the hole. But just use your other hand to pull the sponge back a lil bit until you see the needle.

I think a dude named visions over at mycotopia.net was the fist person to think of this. He used makeup sponges. Ya know those triangle things girls use to put on makeup. They are ideal because they are already the right length I believe and easy to cut also.
