this is great, comes just in time as I'm desiging a custom 3d scientific part. https://github.com/ityonemo/imsocultured/blob/master/device....

What's it do - presumably it's a connector, glass rod to rubber hose (ie tubing)?

Edit: ah, found this https://github.com/ityonemo/imsocultured/commit/08b57107b757... - "oral microbiome community culturing apparatus" - so the complete apparatus is for culturing whatever bacteria and such you find in your mouth in a mini biome?

the oral microbiome model system is an anaerobic community; this apparatus allows you to connect a pH probe using the screw side for continuous pH monitoring (we already have a device that does this; but it's suboptimal for other reasons too) plus a second port that will be fitted with a septum to draw gas, draw samples, or add to the medium.

Would you like any help building/designing/softwaring that? I have a soft spot for rolling my own lab equipment.

Only asking here because github is down, otherwise would be looking..

well the design is complete, we printed some first round tests, and adjusted the tolerances, and the final device is being printed as we speak.
