Yep.
For syringes i just put the needle on the body and suck up boiling water a few times. I never autoclave them anymore

Scalpels I figure the handle will be contaminated by my glove right away so I never sterilize them either. Just wipe the handle and flame the blade.

if you want to have batches of stuff lying around just do what i do!
:cookiemonster:

i make my cvg in the PC now. i still mix it up in a bucket to get to field capacity then
i measure out 5qts into small oven bags. these get pced and put out for storage.

1 4qt bag is enough for 2 shoeboxes, or 4 1:1 shoeboxes, 2 minis, or 1 mono. 2 bags for larger monos.
longest ive had it sit on the shelf was 2 months. ill spend all day doing like 10 bricks of coco
and make enough PCVG for 20 shoeboxes.

whenever i PC agar i use a spare quart jar and toss in stuff i need to be sterilized. blades/qtips whatever
get wrapped in foil and put in the jar. removing them as i need them later.

I thank you in advance for your patients. I have done syringes that way, but I've always used new needles.  My concern is the transport between the boiling water and my SAB.  I have nothing to cover the 3in needle. I suppose that's what the flame is for, but would I have to torch the whole three inches? I need a bigger torch

Makes sense, I'll have to pull out my propane torch.  My little alcohol lamp won't cut it.

I used to fill a shotglass with alcohol and light it and sterilise the tools with that flame. But then I had an explosion because I accidentally lit a bottle of alcohol on fire. Now I torch with a BIC lighter. I should really get a propane torch.

You should definitely get a propane torch there pretty cheap

Explosions aren't fun

Glad the worst I've done is light my hands on fire

Yea, and it was fucking stupid of me too. The alcohol in the shot glass kept burning out, so I had to add more. The glass had cooled a little since the flame was out and I poured alcohol straight from the bottle in the still warm shot glass, apparently hot enough to ignite the alcohol, though. The alcohol in the bottle caught flame and the top blew off creating a massive spike of flames even hitting the walls, luckily the wallpaper didn't catch fire. The shot glass also heated up enough to explode as well, sending glass across the room. It was pretty bad.

Yeah man alcohol can burn clear it was probably still lit and you couldn't see it.

I'm assuming you were using isopropyl.

I used to do massive BHO runs thankful I never blew. Flammable vapors suck.

Plus I always worry how disgustingly gross my lighter must be, much like my phone? I mean I guess one could dedicate a fresh one to it but still, I don't like (seeming to) waste a glove on touching a lighter

I need to get another torch. I had two.  One for work and one for cult. But my work torch bit the dust by being careless with my shit. Snapped in two :facepalm:
They're not cheap where I'm from.
65 bucks
So I just use butane jet lighters from the dollar store for now till I suck it up and buy a new one

Butane lighters more expensive here than the propane torch head. Maybe not cheap ones but most of them are 30-40 dollars
