This is how to build a simple and relatively inexpensive pollen storage case for microcentrifuge tubes

Materials & Costs (ZAR in 2008)
1x Sharp Bread knife
1x Big Jim 46cm/18" Organizer R49.95
2x Oasis Bricks @ R6.90 ea
Total Cost: R63.75

I chose the 46cm organizer as it fits perfectly into the top of the fridge, make sure you choose the correct size to suit your needs

Gardens... should be like lovely, well-shaped girls:  all curves, secret corners, unexpected deviations, seductive surprises and then still more curves.
