Stir Plate for sale??

Probably not, but I figured if anyone out there was looking to get rid of one, I'd ask. I saw a real old looking one on ebay yesterday that went for like $30.

Thanks

 

You could make one for $30.  Everything you'd need I'm sure you have laying around the house and whatever you can't find you can get at Radio Shack.  I recently built one similar to brewchez's stir plate.  It's not that hard; easily an afternoon project. Check out his stir plate thread here.. http://www.brewingkb.com/equipment/Buil … -2597.html

 

Not sure if I'm ambitious enough for that. I see one for sale on ebay that someone built from a cigar box. Not too expensive, interesting look eh? Wonder if it works... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi … Y.m238.lVI

 

Before I decided to build a stir plate I was looking around at buying one.  I checked out a lot of used lab equipment websites.  I think the cheapest price I found was $50.  I remember a few of the sites having guarantees that the equipment was tested and guaranteed for X amount of days. I'll surf around and see if I can find them again.  If I can, I'll post the links for ya.

the first few pages are bids.. once you get to pages 4 or 5 its more "buy it now" kind of stuff

 

Man, there are tons for sale there. Some not as pretty as others, but if it spins, who cares?

Thanks!

 

Nice link FPB......I was thinking of building one myself, but maybe I'll just buy it......

 

OK here's a couple more sites that I remember looking at.

Labequip was another site I checked out.  They don't list prices but you can request quotes.  First link is for stirrers. The second one is for fridges of all kinds: general purpose,temperature control, explosion proof, etc.
