The workshop

Build it yourself.

Welcome to the place where things come to life! During my journey as a scientist, I've encountered challenges that required building my own tools. Here, I will share the builds that worked for me.

Please be careful when using sharp and/or electric equipment. If you do not know what you are doing, ask for assistance!

20mm respirometer cap

The main limitation of such a small respirometer is ensuring that the cap openings are wide enough to allow enough water flow without compromising the recirculation pump. At these small diameters, physics and drag really start to play against you. Keeping openings wide enough is a challenge because we have very little space to work with. However, with some clever sheet stacking tricks, we can increase our working space considerably.
