Great
thread - if anyone has any good leads on cheap bottles and other supplies within the EU, who ships to Finland, I would be grateful (most of my stuff is from
this Polish site, very cheap but somewhat limited selection).
Right now I have *nearly* all I need for awhile, but I made a serious error when ordering my first stuff and only got like five each of 5ml and 10ml plastic dropper bottles and a measly 5 plastic pipettes. You need LOTS of small bottles. Now I think I have something like 25 and 15, plus five 10ml glassbottles (with some fantastic glass drop-pipettes). What I am still lacking is bigger (30ml, maybe 50ml) bottles, but so far I haven't made anything I want to make a big batch of.
And what everyone said about syringes - luckily my pharmacy is quite helpful there, and I don't mind the sharp needles. 1ml syringes is IMO an absolute must when doing small batches.
But those plastic pipettes aren't completely useless, they are quite handy in transfering things from one bottle to another, when measurement isn't needed or when/if you are using a graduated cylinder to mix in.
