My Caulking gun method

[Spaceman Spiff]

So this is my caulking gun setup. I know it looks a little janky but it makes it easy to just use the caulking gun a bit, walk away and do something else.

I can make about about 20 vials of MCT per hour, but if its GSO its alot slower. pain in the ass, especially in the colder temps.
I also did opt for a 20 dollar caulking gun. the 4 dollar one sucks ass and doesnt fit the 60ml syringe unless I pry it open wider.

I utilize IV extension tubing to allow it to lay on its side so I dont have to hold up the stupid gun.

I utilize whatman filters for this.

How do you mount the syringe into the caulking gun. I had couple of slips and spilled oil on the floor, and had one instance of filter breaking open lol.

Fill the strings to 40ml. Don't fill it all the way otherwise the rubber part of the plunger won't allow it to be pushed in there.

There are only certain caulking guns that will allow it to fit in there well. Not the cheap 4 dollar one either. I tried Lowe's and home Depot.

It can fit in there but you need pliers to make open wider.

This is a pretty smart way to do this!

Does the iv extension have a luer lock on both sides? Or is it only compatible with the iv needle? Where did you get the extension?

Also have you consider just hooking yourself up to a permanent testosterone IV and just carrying it around?

Luer locks ability is on both ends. Only issue is that filters do not typically have it on the opposite side of the syringe.

I don’t think they really need the security of a leur lock on the downstream of the filter as the pressure is going to much less downstream due to the lack of an obstruction, ie like the filter upstream.

Off the top of my head I don’t think I’ve personally seen syringe filters with leur locks after the filter.

Braun PES filters do.

Good find mate. That’s the first I’ve ever seen though.

Edit: that said, you almost certainly have a much wider range of syringe filters commonly available for public retail purchase in the US than we do in the UK.

You gotta watch those 6 packs mate. They are ruining your 6 pack.

You dont need leur lock exit on the filter the pressure is on the inlet.

Very nice !

Do you use multiple guns to accelerate the process ?

You need to replace the syringe filter after gow man ml?

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

Very nice !

yes. a few pushes on each gun. prevent filtering from breaking and still a consistent speed.

when I do MCT I can do about 20 vials an hour... GSO/castor is a different story....

90-110 ml.


Each of my vials for myself is filled to 12-13ml
