Default Glassware

swis wants to attempt his first synth using a modified nano method and can get his hands on just about every piece of pyrex labglass he could want from his friend who just got 2 private school chemistry class's worth.

so far swis has 2 250ml erlenmeyer flasks, 4 50ml volumetric flasks, and bout 30 test tubes. swis is wondering if the erlenmeyerflasks are suffeciant to do the synth, or should swis stop being lazy and go get a 500ml boiling flask? Swis also plans on getting a seperatory funnel, bigger volumetric flasks, a 500ml 3 neck flask, a condenser [the coil one], and various stoppers.

swis would like input on which other pieces are nice to have around seeing that the glass is quickly changing form into bongs and pipes.

thanks.

For nano's those 50mL's will be fine, no bigger than that.

Use that 500mL and the graham condenser (coil one) assuming you have all the right adaptors to fit it, to steam distill your freebase, for extra purity. Don't forget to break up a coffee mug or something to use as boiling stones, bumping can be a scary thing. SWIM uses porous carbon chips he bought from his glass supplier. Good luck!

thanks for the input and swim was going to use those half flat/round top marble things that you see in model homes in vases as boiling stones? or do you disagree.

You can make about a quarter z in a 250mL flask.

swis is just so happy that he didnt have to pay for a dime of it, swis is going to try and grab some extra shit and perhaps give some of it out to other dreamers, kuz it is free to swis, swis thinks some other people should be as fortunate and swis planns on taking more then enough and giving some away.

Swis didnt know that fucking pyrex brand was x5 the price of any other type of glass, Damn, this accually is alot of money in glass, oh well free to me, perhaps swis can give away a few things. swis is making a trip to his friends house (where it all is) tomorrow and grabbing "whatever (swis) wants, just dont go crazy. and smoke with swis(really) wen ur done" (swis's[really] words). So hopefully swis will beat SwiC [(another person with dibs on glass)]. and get the good stuff [even though there is almost 2 or more of everything].

swim see's in dreams a 500 ml long neck flask, a stopper with a glass long tube funnel as a condencer, funnel is upright with another stopper in it to attach a glass tube to (square up) with funnel tube, hose or ballon on top, nothin fancy. uses this for swim thinks the rp/io rxn. seems to work outstanding.....
