μblog: engineering from the trenches

Since the last post about the rotovaporator on a budget, we have made some improvements.  First, we added a transmission to lower the power delivered to the motor and avoid the need for any kind of cooling. Second, we added a higher stand to allow us to sonicate the flask while rotating it.

P.S. We also have a DIY centrofuge.
