BOD's SIMPLE AS FUCK SAB TEK * 311
    #23990888 - 01/07/17 08:51 PM (7 years, 21 days ago)

This tek is part of bod's cultivation is easy as fuck link list




Bod's Easy AF SAB TEK



what do you need?

A 110q tub or a 66q tub. 110q is preferred.
alternatively you can build one out of Plexiglas or something else like an aquarium but that's not the simple AF way. Some people have found tubs in the nearly 200q size as well, that will work too.


you will also need

Paper Towel,
70% alcohol (usually iso)
gloves for your hands
A torch (or anything that doesn't fuck around like those little alcohol lamp things)
And some tools like a scalpel and inoculation loop(not pictured)

and you will also need a spray bottle(not pictured), that's capable of making mist, with some warm water and a drop of dish soap (approx 500ml water for one drop of dawn or Palmolive)

I color code my spray bottles
Blue for mist water(for spraying substrates)
Clear for 150ppm chlorine(not often used)
Green for 70% ISO
Yellow for water with a drop of soap for SAB spray

70% alcohol sanitizes better than 90+ or higher concentrations
more info about that here

How To Build It



do the holes with one of these

get it hot on a stove, don't burn yourself.
make the arm holes comfortably far apart so that you can move your hands around as if there were no SAB there in the first place. The idea is to have the same freedom of motion you would have if you spent a bunch of money on a flow hood
make some holes, clean them up with some sandpaper if needed so they don't cut your forearms up.

How do you use it? How does it work?

get a table and your SAB
wipe the inside of the SAB and the table surface with some alcohol on a paper towel
put the SAB on the table and you might want to put a weight on top so it doesn't move around at all
put your work inside the box, (or put it on the table then put the SAB over it)
spray the water inside the SAB with your sprayer on fine mist mode
light your torch and put it on low, I put it on the side of my SAB on the table
be prepared mentally for the work you're about to do
have everything ready and rehearsed in your mind
put the gloves on and wipe them down with iso, wipe your forearms down too


WHY IT WORKS

You CANNOT sterilize the inside of a SAB
Sanitizers are not Sterilizers
and Sanitary is not sufficiently contamination free to do STERILE work.
thus you have to work with physics rather than your chemicals
you do not want air movement, it's a STILL AIR BOX
this is why glove boxes are a no-no in this hobby
glove boxes with attached gloves create air currents, you don't want to stir up non sterile air, you want to avoid having the contamination end up in your work in the first place

This design uses no sleeves or any caps on the arm holes. I believe my work speaks for the efficacy of not needing to over complicate things.


now get to work!

Some people do. I figure even a sanitized towel is more gross than a sanitized piece of plastic. I used to do it

Sometimes I lay down iso soaked paper towels but if you do that don't make a bomb

Man ive been fucking up for like a year now lol, ive always used tyvex sleeves attached to the arm holes.

While your waiting for the air to settle, do you like to stuff the holes?



I don't wait for the air to settle and I don't stuff the holes :lol:

by the time I'm ready to work it's settled out 30-60 seconds anyway

Another thing I'll add is that don't be afraid of making the arm-holes larger than 6 inches because it lessens the amount of air-disruption as you move around.

My first crack a SAB involved trying to saw the holes, which lead to cracks...

Frustrated, and looking for a reason to roast a coffee can on the stove, I recalled taking notes on Bod's glove box. Fast forward 15 minutes, and I melted two perfect holes in my tote!

It took longer to file the melted holes than it did to make them. Will second doing this in a well ventilated place.



It's worth doing a nice finished job on the melted holes. But if you do a "low temp" melt thru there's less fumes. And there's a buildup of plastic that can be smoothed. It may take three four heat ups to get thru but better than making the can red hot and burning plastic

It inherently gets about 30-60 seconds bare minimum or even a few minutes

Everyone gets contamination sometimes



5 out of 10 of my GT jars I made didn't recover , there's various degrees of recovery. but none of them are acceptable


this is two days after a shake

the other 5 seemed to do well with the same LC. different batches of grain in the cooker though..

I made a tub with the other 5 and it's almost fully colonized it was spawned on the 13th

And pictures of shitty fills on their jars too. Hahah I had a friend help so they're loaded all funny. Get to the last two jars and there's not enough to go around. Some are almost too full to shake..

I like 2/3 full. The jar on the left is closest. A little more grain And its perfect.

I use ~13-14 dry cups of oats for 10 quart jars.

Jars go right on the floor. I seperate petri dishes with one blank dish on the bottom of the stack.

You can't have a flame inside the SAB because it will stir up the air inside. If your SAB sucks build a new one.



Yep

Hard surface> towel
Hard surfaces easiest to sanitize. I use a plastic table
