Marks Lures Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Was looking for a better micro-wave safer glass with a straight side, so I can just stand up my injector while it warms a little Figured the science stuff would be made out of 100% borosilicate glass, does not shatter if it is hot and you happen to set it in a little water. At bit pricey at $14.95. (2 or more are $12.95 each, a case of 6 from Aldrich is about $10.00 each It is made by Aldrich. "Glass Beaker Mug with Handle 400ml (about 13 oz.)

mark poulson Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 (edited) Mark, Did you see this thread: http://www.tackleunderground.com/community/topic/21621-silicone-cups-for-microwave-heating-tip/ I pour for me, and do a lot of hand pours. And I use a Cajun injector for my worms. Since I've started using the silicone cups, I only use my pyrex cups for hold my stir sticks and spue cutoffs. I've gotten pretty good at hand pouring with them, too. I hold the cup in my gloved left hand, pinch the cup to make a tight pour hole with my right, and pour a thin stream, no problem. The plastic stays hot a whole lot longer, and there's no drop and break danger, or exploding pyrex issues. I can refill my 3 oz. injector a couple of times before the plastic cools too much to inject. As I said, I'm just a hobby pourer, and only make stuff for myself, and some friends who beg. I don't do production, or I'd stay with the system that Frank uses. He's a genius! Edited March 20, 2011 by mark poulson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
