got kids? need a cheap hydrometer tube?

I just made a nice little back up hydro tube with this toy ... it's called a bubble wand ... i think my wife picked up a couple of these at the dollar store even ... so I think you'd have one happy kid for a few days and a hydrometer tube when the bubbles are gone .. just cut the threded top off and BAM .. HYDRO TUBE ... it looks like it's going to use much less beer than my other tube does too ... in fact .. it fits right in my other tube, so I may just use the old tube as a stand and save beer ... just a thought for you all .. cheers !!

i cant seem to post a link to a pic .. but just search bubble wand and you'll see one ... good luck

 

Like this one

 

same design, but the ones I have are clear with little silver specs on them ... the hydro fits with just enough room to float .. pretty cool find. :fro:

 

btw ... I tried it out this morning on my patersbier and it worked like a charm ... just the right amout of space to float the hydro and a nice full drink of beer to sample taste

 

Clear with little silver specs may be a bit more manly, rather than the tinkerbell one...

 

haha

OP thanks for the heads up! I almost stomped my tube the other day when I droped the hydrometer in and the bottom flew out!
