Test Tube Holder

A very simple test tube holder for experiments.

Step 1:

You need a piece of wire - a hanger works well and some pliers. Open the hanger with the pliers until it looks like the picture.

Step 2:

Take the piece of wire and bend it around the pliers.

Step 3:

You want to keep bending until you cross over the wires.

Step 4:

Make the first bend for the grip - about 90 degrees from the handle on both sides.

Step 5:

about 1/3 the way up bend again 90 degrees from the end - towards the handle.

Step 6:

Another 90 degree bend back down on both sides.

Step 7:

bend in or trim the rest.

Step 8:

Your done.

Step 9:

Start experimenting! You can use a longer piece or add wooden handles to protect from heat.
