When some instruments are old and their parts are no longer available for replacement, you sometimes needs to mend and make-do. Take our sample concentrator for instance. The sponge part for our concentrator sticks is obsolete and as a result we use a pair of nitrile gloves stretched over the gas chamber as a quick fix. It needs mending regularly but with gloves in plentiful supply we're overly bothered about that. However, today my colleague decided to overlap the gloves instead of one on top of the other. turn on the nitrogen flow, et voila, todays picture which had us all in stitches laughing. Who said science isn't fun?!
