Same, I also screwed by armhole height and width up when I had to switch tables/rooms. I'm thinking to start over, buy a stainless steel table and a large tote and make it my permanent SAB. Key is drilling the armholes properly based on your comfortable posture, sitting position, chair height, etc... I have also debated what type of chair to go with. I just use a tall hard stool but it makes my butt numb! Nothing's easy!! :grin:

Standing definitely helps the back, I tried sitting once and it was awful :sad:

I've thought about trying to stand with the SAB, would need to elevate my table alot! I wonder how common it is for people stand vs sit using their SAB.

I might grab this stainless steel table, cheapest I can find: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CHY91HS9/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1NTJYHZ4DS23G&psc=1

I use this table for my Presto and 75X, but it probably wouldn't be awful for standing with an SAB: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L8F4XLN

I used to set mine up at my breakfast bar/counter. Perfect height for standing. Now I sit in front of the FFU for long sessions with minimal back complaints. :lol:

Wow, it never really occurred to me to try sitting, in part because I'm always moving around to grab and shuffle different things.

And while I understand that the risk is quite remote, I do want to be prepared if a sentient mass of bacteria suddenly take a humanoid form and comes at me.

Not planned, but the table I use is the perfect height for standing at my SAB for the amount of time I use it (which isn't very long).

Quick question I just purchased 400 sterile petri dishes 60mm-15mm and they wrapped 20 at a time to keep sterile. How much agar should I make to do 20 dishes? I was going to use a liquor bottle can do 375ml probably 2 of them if I get the right bottle.

Anyone have a estimate on how many ml for 20 60mm 15mm? Im super excited to make agar just going to pour it low temperature dont have a thermometer.

I used to do my work on a drafting table.  It allowed for exact height adjustments.

1000ml gets me through 60 of that size.

But I don’t pour heavy. Just cover the bottom.

Last I made LME agar, i made 2L 2x1L bottles using the recipe 1L water 30g LME 20g Agar, and it made 63 plates, i poured pretty heavy on some of them, id say 750ml agar is prob more than enough for 20 plates.

as :whathesaid: , if you dont pour as heavy handed as me, youll prob be fine with 350ml. if not maybe have some extra ready to pour.

Cool thanks I have some premade liquid culture mix I was going to mix with agar powder probably really low to get rhizomorphic I find it pretty looking. I found some sales got 500 grams organic agar powder for $24 with shipping and the 400 plates was only $55.

I messaged my liquid culture mix vendor when I purchased it its got LME DME and peptone in a ratio he said found best for fast growth.

Its so expensive though most premade agar plates are at least 70 cents a plate I think im spending under 25 cents a plate this way and dont have to worry about the agar drying out if I dont use it within a few months.

I think if I can do agar transfers agar pouring shouldn't be much different :shrug:

I never tried pastyplates. I just went straight to 100mm x 15mm plastic petri dishes and poured. It's really easy with some practice and technique tuning. I am still very much an agar noob though!.

Agar making is the easiest skill hands down.

Hardest part is just patience letting it cool down enough to minimize condensation.

Are grain bags similar to jars in that once the outside appears fully colonised, the interior is also fully colonised?
