need polypropylene tubes...

[werldhed]

and all I have are polystyrene.

[spl1ff]

don't you hate it when that happens

[Survivor]

Hell, that happens to me every other day

All your tubing needs met.

[Scourge]

I wonder what you could be building with that?

[werldhed]

Thanks, NS, but they're the wrong kinds of tubes.

THESE are what I was looking for.

To answer your question, scourge, I'm building a race of super mutants so I can take over the world.
:lol:

[Nightshade]

Ah, you meant test tubes for your meth lab.

[werldhed]

Yeah. That's why I ran out -- I used up my whole stock. Polystyrene's amorphous crystaline structure causes it to become soft when I'm cooking the meth down, so I need polypropylene to get the job done. Unfortunately, I spent all weekend making meth, and now I don't have any tubes left for growing cloned super mutants.

[ForM]

From my knowledge of plastics, polypropylene and polystyrene tubes are not heat temperable.
In shorth thay both become nothing but a melted mess when exposed to high heat.
Cooking crack will definatly make them melt, and even some of the ingrediants alone will make the tubes "unstable".

I could be wrong.

[chopov]

I'm not into biotech/chemistry but why don't you use glass tubes?

[Nightshade]

Probably because they're more expensive and they have to be cleaned. You just can't be mixing super mutant goo accidentally in a dirty tube, now can you?

[chopov]

But with a bit luck and the appropriate dirt in the tube you create the hyper super mutant by chance so you could take over the entire galaxy.

[Nightshade]

WHOA! Let's reign in the pie-in-the-sky wishing there, little camper. The fine specimen in that picture is clearly the work of the divine.

[werldhed]

But with a bit luck..."

Ah, good ol' serendipity. It makes the world go round.

However, I have to follow standard protocol listed in my mutant cloning kit. Otherwise, someone willnotice that I used dirty tubes, and I'll have to discard my results since my samples were contaminated.

Then I'll never get a patent on my super mutants.
