Petri Dish & Agar Kit (Sterile, 50-Pack)
Fifty sterile petri dishes with pre-poured nutrient agar. Ready for streaking, swabbing, or zone-of-inhibition experiments. Includes inoculation loops and a Bunsen burner. Proper aseptic technique required.
Germ Theory Demo -- Swan-Neck Flask Experiment
Replicate my famous experiment. Two flasks of broth: one open, one with a swan-curved neck. The straight one spoils. The swan-neck stays clear for years. I still have flasks from the 1860s that are sterile. This experiment ended the debate on spontaneous generation forever.
Pasteurization Kit (Home Dairy/Brewing)
Everything to pasteurize milk, juice, or homebrew: precision thermometer, stainless steel pot, timer, instructions. Heat to 72 degrees Celsius for 15 seconds, then cool rapidly. Named after me, and I am proud of that. This process saves millions of lives every year.
Coherer & Detector Collection (Replicas)
Early radio detectors: Branly coherer, magnetic detector, crystal detector. Each a step in the evolution of radio reception. The coherer -- a tube of metal filings that clumps when radio waves hit it -- is crude and brilliant.
Assembly Line Simulation Workshop
Small group (max 8). Simulate a moving assembly line. First round: each person builds complete item. Second round: each person does one step. Measure the difference. Tip: The bottleneck is the slowest station. Fix that first.
Process Optimization Consulting -- Eliminate Waste
One-on-one. Bring me your workflow -- manufacturing, service, office, anything. I will find the waste. Every process has value-adding steps and non-value-adding steps. Eliminate the latter. At Highland Park, chassis assembly went from 12 hours 28 minutes to 1 hour 33 minutes.
Women in STEM Mentoring -- Credit and Recognition
One-on-one mentoring. My work was used without my knowledge. My contribution was minimized for decades. I will teach you how to protect your intellectual contribution: documentation, publication timing, co-authorship agreements, and when to speak up. The work is everything, but credit matters too.
Braille Slate & Stylus Set (Professional)
Professional-grade Braille writing slate with interline spacing and a steel-tipped stylus. Write by punching dots right-to-left (they read left-to-right when flipped). Includes 50 sheets of Braille paper.
Sterile Technique Workshop -- Infection Prevention
Hands-on aseptic technique: surgical scrub, gloving, draping, instrument sterilization, wound cleaning. Before carbolic acid, half of surgical patients died from infection. Surgeons operated in frock coats stiff with dried blood.
Surgical Instrument Set (Educational, Stainless)
Educational surgical instruments: scalpel handles, forceps, scissors, needle holders, retractors, hemostats. Stainless steel, autoclavable. For anatomy study and dissection practice.
History of Medicine -- From Barbarism to Antisepsis
Surgery before and after germ theory. Sawing limbs without anesthesia, 50 percent mortality. Then Pasteur, carbolic acid, sterile technique. A single idea -- germs cause infection -- saved more lives than any drug. Semmelweis figured it out before me and they drove him to madness.
Heavy Bag (100lb Leather) + Speed Bag Station
Professional-grade heavy bag and speed bag mounted on a steel frame. The heavy bag teaches power. The speed bag teaches timing. Use both. I hit these every morning before sunrise and have since 1962.
