Easy To See Modified No-Pour 1

Good evening all!
I had some good feedback from a picture I posted in the 'pic of the day' thread, and I wanted to see what more folks thought.
In my first batch of no-pours I tried a few with my own technique, where I put the agar on the lid, so I could easily see it and open the container normally with the agar facing down to help my sterile technique.
I thought it could be a problem with transfers with the agar sticking while opening or closing. It hasn't, and I've made all of my next batch like this.
With the mini round the inset area on the lid makes a wonderful little pool, and handhold. I was able to get 20 of the mini round plates out of 100ml of agar. EDIT FEB 19 20: If you do this make sure to fill the puck area to just below where it flutes to slightly bigger. I've had a few dry out completely since I made them.
Original:

Version 2:


I also like having the room for possible pins to grow up compared to the normal petris.
Let me know what y'all think, please.
Cheers!
Bonus pic of everything I have going ATM:

That's a cleaver take on no-pours. I like it.

Thanks for saying!
I did get some ziplock 2 cup rounds to use as well for when I want a bigger culture to take to grain. I did those normally.
I've used these for transfers since making, and I think they are working beautifully 

I also had someone ask, and I put the vent hole next to the agar puck area:

Pure genius, sir! GJ
I wish the pasty plate lids had a wider “pool area” though. You gotta find an alternative container and you can write up a tek. Pasty Wizard Tek? Inverted Wiz Tek? You’ll figure it out...

Lol, no names like that. I've read the threads.
If anything it's the "Stranger (things) No-Pour" ya know, b/c it's upside down.
The puck area is bigger on larger size containers, but the container is so large it's not worth the space.
I see these used as an in-between plate when you're growing to isolate, and just need to grab the quickest growth, germination could work just fine too. Then grow out your isolate in something bigger.
Personally I'm diving into LI already, and I'm going to try the "Shake the shit out of it" LI tek with my 2 cup ziplock containers. Not putting all my eggs there, of course.

You PC them upside down without issue or you nuke? With how expensive glass and polypropylene petris are and with how I’m not wanting to be so wasteful and moreover with the amount of cleaning and disinfecting I’ve done on my polystyrene petris...ehem where was I? I could do so many plates with so little agar. I can also PC the Tupperware to clean it. Petris are so easy to pop the lid off though, I love them. This tek def has me feeling kinda Glad however ; ) great ideas thank you.
