SEOH Plastic Hexagonal Weigh Boats Micro Dish 100pk

If you're wanting cheap little weighing boats then these perfectly fit your requirements.I wanted these as a substitute to the included weighing pan with the  American Weigh Scales GEMINI-20 Portable MilliGram Scale, 20 by 0.001 G  as they provide substantially larger surface area, depth, & volume.If you're able to reuse the same boat over & over this will probably last you forever for just $6I was curious though on how consistent the weight of these boats are from boat to boat. Testing repeatability of my scale I placed the exact same boat in the exact same place and repeatability was fairly good only varying around ~.003 grams. Making this more difficult though is that the boats are not symmetrical as the width of the edges clearly vary.My method to test their weight consistency was to take a stack of boats and put them all in the same orientation - wide edge to wide edge / thin edge to thin edge. Then I would place a single boat on the scale, let it settle, remove it let it rest to zero and then repeat. I did this for about a dozen boats. Every 3 or 4 boats i would pull an earlier one to see if it still measured within .003 grams of its original weight and they all did.I ended up finding a variation from .460 grams to .550 grams. Depending on what you are measuring this is a fairly huge variance.So you do not want to tare 1 boat once and then measure multiple different boats already loaded. Tare each fresh boat before loading. American Weigh Scales GEMINI-20 Portable MilliGram Scale, 20 by 0.001 G

I bought these for an unconventional reason, so I'll talk about that, but I wanted this review to be useful for people who wanted to use these as weighing boats, as well, so I'll also offer some comments regarding that use.I recently got a set of nail art brushes. These are items that won't fit down into traditional nail polish bottles. So I needed little trays, preferably something disposable, to pour a bit of polish out into so I could use the nail art brushes. Since I spent six years in chemistry graduate school, plastic weighing boats immediately came to mind. These were the smallest ones I could find, which meant I would be wasting the least amount of polish possible. And they definitely work for that purpose. They're big enough to move a nail fan brush around in, but they also work for just dotting tools. You can use a separate one for each color and throw them away afterwards (yay for a no-mess cleanup). In a similar vein, you could probably also use these for mixing small amounts of paint.These also work for weighing small amounts of substances (I checked, using stuff like flour and sugar I found in my kitchen). They would really only be suitable for microscale synthesis experiments or maybe preparing solutions of standards for liquid chromatography or a similar analytical method because the bottoms are only a little bigger in area than a US quarter. They are made of a material with the same finish as practically every other weighing boat I've ever used. They're pretty lightweight, but that's really what you want in a weighing boat.

I was expecting smaller boats but these will work. The boats are an inch wide at the smallest (between parallel sides) so they won't fit on the AWS scale without the pan so for the AWS scale I need to use the metal pan with them but they will be great alone with the "smart weigh" scale. I had looked for something like this a couple years ago but didn't find it then. I am glad I found them now. The boats are an inch wide at the smallest (between parallel sides) so they won't fit on the AWS scale without the pan. If they were small enough to fit on the AWS scale without the pan they would get a 5 stars from me.

I accidentally came across exactly what I was looking for. I need to measure noot's down the the mg in a container that was manageable and didn't weigh several grams. I ordered the micro dish 100 pack, I use about 1 a month as I reuse the same one until they wear out and crack from pinching accidentally or flicking the contents out..Worth every penny, the micro will hold several grams of powder. The micro bowls I received weigh about 555mg each on it's own.

The perfect little thing for you to use to hold your smallest amounts without spilling it. I use it to measure out an oz of sugar or anything of that substance with out it spilling and getting all over my hands. You can place what your measuring in it and if your not ready to put it in your recipe then it will hold it just fine until your ready. Bottom is flat. They are also bendable so you can bend it outward and it comes out of one of the slants evenly without spilling. I rather use the hexagonal weigh boats than a sauce cup or something like that. Very easy to handle and it's precise.
