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 nothing-at least in the interim.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] lab help for student with prosthetic hand

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
