I have done my fair share of processing and refining of escrap
and like many I never have invested in any decent glassware.
I went the thrift shop route and picked up glass coffee pots,
crock pots, electric frying pan as a heat source and some big
glass cookie jars from Walmart.
You get what you pay for in life as they say and I am tired of
having to deal with irregular lips and edges on the glass jars that
I use to drop the gold in or to make poor mans nitric in as it
is a hassle to get the dropped gold back out of the containers.
Same thing with using coffee pots to do the gold washes in.
For a small scale refiner, what type of lab glassware would some
of you more experienced refiners recommend as a "starter set"?
I appreciate all the suggestions and pictures are always appreciated!! 8)
