FAQ
Order & Shipping
Parts can be ordered from the Parts page.
1. Cut an appropriately 1⁄2” strip off the top of a standard 8.5” x 11′′ sheet of paper (fig 1).
2. Wrap the strip of paper around the specimen jar just below the screw-top flange. The flange supports the jar in the BLT (fig 2). TIP: make sure the strip is flat and straight.
3. Carefully mark the point where the strip overlaps itself (fig 2).
4. Lay the strip down flat and carefully measure from the start of the strip to the mark in millimeters. The length is the circumference of the specimen jar (fig 3). If between millimeters, round UP.
NOTE: Some jars taper at the base so the most accurate way to ensure proper fit is the ‘paper strip’ method.
