What about lead rings for water baths?  Obviously, they would be more effective with Erlenmeyers and graduated cylinders than with beakers, for instance, but they should be better than nothingÉat least in the interim.

Hi all,

 

A student's prosthetic hand has been damaged (not lab related) and unfortunately they now have very limited ability to grasp/steady items such as graduated cylinders, flasks, etc.  Does anyone know of some sort of countertop item that could help stabilize graduated cylinders and other "tippy" items?  I can imagine a few creative designs but I would rather have a commercial ADA-type product if possible.  I've done a small bit of online searching but no luck so far; I'm probably not using the correct search words.

 

Thanks

 

Pat
