Hi Labbies
I must have got a faulty batch of test tube holders (wooden peg type). Not sure where I ordered them from but the teachers have been complaining about them falling apart.
Has anyone else had the same problem?
Any suggestions about where to order them from next time. Perhaps its the same manufacturer supplying many companies.

Re: wooden test tube holders
last lot i got were just crap - we have now changed to the metal type and guess what the kids can not set them alight no matter how hard they try. They are a bit more expensive but heaps better.

Re: wooden test tube holders
We bought a bunch of adjustable test tube holders from Haines Educational last year, & they're great.
$3.30 each (GST incl), & they hold any test tube size except little 3ml micro ones (with 10mm diameter).
You just slide the metal clip along to tighten the grip for whichever size you're holding.
The handles are wooden, but we've had no trouble with pyromaniacs so far.

Thanks, Kiah - I haven't seen that type before. Very clever.

Thanks Kiah and Bindibadgi, I really appreciate your help - this has been really bugging me especially since I have to do the ordering very soon.
