I'm looking to get some 1,5,10,20ml syringes, beakers or test tubes to replace the terrible API 5ml ones, and maybe some other random stuff.

I've tried a few different sites and they all sell stuff in bulk.

Anyone have a source for some of this stuff?

Thanks Gomer and Whisk.

I actually called them up and they will do credit card orders over the phone.

I ordered a few 10, 25ml low form beakers, few 10,25,50ml flasks, and some other random stuff.

When I get them, I'm going to pull an office space on those damn API tubes.

We use their products at work, they sell aquaculture products and test kits.

Lol, dude I almost did... There was one for like $90 or something but I figured the beakers were way to small...


But really, how cool, easy and painless would that be?!
