The top of my sab is technically the bottom.

I feel like I need to start looking from the top of my SAB now lol. I guess it would make it easier to see if my hand is going over anything it shouldn't

Mine gets foggy sometimes when I'm pouring agar. But then again, it's scratched to hell on the "top" (bottom of the tote), and it's smaller, so the visibility sucked anyway.
Got myself a 200qt tub today (had to drive for a while to a Walmart - thanks for that tip @ Crackatoa!) - and the bottom isn't scratched one bit. I'm really looking forward to the extra space - but ESPECIALLY the clearer view.

Looking through the top of the SAB was one of my main reasons that I hated them. Mine was "textured" which made it impossible to see clearly. Making agar transfers smaller than a grain of rice? good luck! If I hadn't moved to a Flow Hood I would have gone with the clear acrylic window route.

I had pretty specific size restrictions on what I could buy due to the countertops I had to work on. Only 66qt ones would work, all of them at Target (like 3 brands) had textured bottoms when I bought it. Didn't know there were non-textured ones

I got a 200 qt SAB the other day and didn't notice it was a little warped or something on the face I cut my holes. It makes it hard to look in the side cause the way it's warped refracts light oddly and fucks with my depth perception. That's what I get for getting so excited I didn't even check it out thoroughly before buying.
Luckily I only use it for g2g and pouring agar

You guys can flip it over or on the side and just use Saran wrap instead of the lid. At some point I want to use PVC pipe to create a wide/tall frame and Saran wrap it. No reason why it shouldn't work.

Is that a problem? There's loads of "bits" of stuff falling all over the outside of it anyway. Better outside than inside, no?

Press n seal is fairly awesome and it sticks directly to plastic. My sab is huge. It’s bigger than yours. Big enough to inoculate 30 quarts at least.
Bigger than all my monos. You can do all the work in one sitting. And dish a 55 gallon barrel of whoop ass at the same time. Anyone ever heard comedian Roy Mercer?
