• A need for working glass is frequently encountered in scientific research and teaching, particularly in the field of physical chemistry. In many laboratories this problem is solved by the employment of professional glass-blowers, and the research worker requires little or no skill in the manipulation of glass. Or it may be that a laboratory has no glass-blower and the scientist has to rely on his oqn resources, combined perhaps with the services of some outside specialist. In other laboratories the scientist may find the available services to be deficient in various respects, or overloaded, so that a more satisfactory progress is made when he himself bcomes an amateur glass-worker.
