My new glove box, any feedback?
    #9805829 - 02/16/09 12:33 AM (15 years, 1 month ago)

Made this out of a Rubbermaid roughneck.  I cut the arm holes, set the plastic circles back in, and duck taped them for a flap-like effect.  The top is a solid piece of glass from some sort of furniture.  Ive just been cleaning it with a bleach/water solution, washing my arms and hands, putting on synthetic gloves, putting everything I need inside, spraying a mist of more bleach water, letting it settle, and going about my business.  Any constructive criticism or feedback would be well received. Thanks folks!

Looks pretty good to me.  My only recommendation would be to put some sleeves in it.  I followed Monstermitch's guide, and it seems to work well.  You can find it here: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/5937476/an/0/page/0

I agree clear tubs are better that way you get a better range of view.. I currently have a 116 quart sterlite tub that I use for a glovebox, but later today my flow hood will be done, so I will not ever need it again..

I know this isn't a good shot, but this is my current glovebox.  It's a clear tub, with 4" ABS couplings in the wall of the tub.  Just get an old knife, get it blazing hot with a torch or your stove burner, and then cut your holes with that.  Then place the couplings, and use a hot glue gun to seal all the way around.. it works great, really strong.

Find some gloves that will fit around the coupling, and then use some hose clamps to keep them in place.  The reason I do this is so that when you're doing work that requires no flame sterilization (grain to grain, pouring agar, etc) you can leave the gloves in there.  And when you are doing flame sterilization, take the gloves off, use a couple rubber-bands to hold it onto your arms, and then enter into your glove box through the couplings(leaving the flame outside of the box.)

If this is feasible for you, I'd recommend it.  You really can't be too careful when it comes to sterile procedure.  Especially when you spend a lot of time doing it.

Cool, thanks for the info guys!  as for visibility, i have it on my dining room table with the light right above it, so I can see in it just fine, the only thing that gets on my nerves is the glare off the glass.  Next time I will def use a clear one.  Is home depot a good spot to get those tyvek sleeves? what did they come off of, a painters suit?

Damn those are nice Glove boxes. Mines only a Tupperware container with some holes shattered out of it. Literally shattered out of it.

Lowes is a good place to get them.

Mine is an inverted 105qt with heated coffee can arm holes and some flaps covering it. I use nitrile gloves and alcohol on everything... careful around a flame if you do that.
