I said they don't make a *7L* as in, an extra long psycho-killer variant like the #3L. That's a normal #7

(I'm sure it's nice, but it's no mycelium scimitar!)

My bad, I didn't know the L was a different one, I've seen the same handle been called different things, but yeah, a normal #7 is good enough for me, but I'm tired of fighting when I need to change blade

I submit the dumbest “tool”.

I’m always complaining about having to cut the roll of cling wrap for wrapping plates. The edges seem to always stick and tear and it’s just a pain in the ass.

So my wife ordered me this from Amazon.  Sure it’s 6 dollars for 2 rolls, but so much nicer than cutting down Saran wrap rolls

I got one of these and love it!

I will admittedly spend for convenience but paying $30 for something that can be done in seconds with a knife is pretty luxurious

Nothing wrong with a little luxury if you can afford it, though I'm not sure this qualifies as "luxurious". Certainly a bit extra--but of course parafilm is a bit extra and expensive itself

Thanks for the tip FuzzyFoot
I'm currently using a curved hemostat forceps.



It works good when I'm putting the blade on the cheap handle, but when I need to get the blade off, I'm applying more pressure then I'd like to I'm hoping the Swann Morton handle will change this, but if not, I'll try the pliers, thanks

Anyone else using HOCl instead of H2O2/Isopropyl for their sanitizing?



Got myself another gallon of 500ppm.

Here is some accidental genius! I accidentally melted one leg on a hot surface. What I discovered is this 3/8” difference on one leg allows me to level the strainer in my sink, which like most if not all sinks has a slope for water drainage. No more tipping over when I’m dumping things in there!

I think dinosaur has mentioned using it. HOCl is a very potent oxidizer and good disinfectant, but it’s incredibly unstable. Most commercial use relies on generating the molecule on site and using immediately. Temperature, light exposure, even exposure to air will quickly degrade it’s germicidal properties. Most of the currently available bottled products rely on stabilizers and carbon dioxide to protect the molecule. Once you open the bottle the clock is ticking. If you use it store in a cool dark place, date you container when opening, and use it quickly. Shelf life of well stored containers after opening is as short as 3-4 months.
