Flinn Plant Press
Make magnificent pressed plant specimens! Use
this quality press to get the maximum impact from
your field collecting efforts. This durable, quality press will help preserve your display specimens as lifelike as possible. Special drier sheets provide extra absorbency for faster drying and color retention. Corrugated ventilator sheets provide an even air flow throughout the multiple layers of the press. The large 12" x 16" frame (and matching ventilators) enables you to process many specimens at each level. The multi-tiered rails assure even pressure across the entire flat surface of the press. The tough cinch straps allow for firm pressure during the drying process. Comes with 12 drying sheets and 12 ventilators. Ready for immediate use.

Do you want beautiful leaves preserved, in full color, and not brittle? This leaf preservation kit uses a unique chemical process to preserve leaves in a totally natural condition. The leaves will be supple and easy-to-handle during identification activities. Preserved leaves can be kept for several years. Kit comes complete with storage container and enough chemicals for hundreds of leaves. Also included is a copy of the very popular Tree Finder tree identification book.
Flinn Plastic Embedding Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
It’s fun and easy! Students love to use embedding
plastic to permanently display their favorite specimen. The liquid embedding plastic is catalyzed with a hardener and then poured over your specimen in a mold. The amazing polymer hardens like glass and makes a beautiful, permanent mount. Make your own casts and put them in your display case.
Kit contains one quart of embedding plastic, hardener and complete instructions. You need to provide the specimen and containers for mixing and molding.
