From Andrew Hires’ twitter— repurposing an old hard drive for beveling pipettes. Nice!

Nice! We made something very similar using a CPU fan with a patch of diamond lapping film as the turntable.
The film is diamond lapping from 3M (DLF4XN 5661X).

Hi Koen!
So this means that the Janelia version that Andrew Hires posted has diamond lapping film on it as well, right?
Yes, that’s the same film. Just cut a hole in the middle so it fits the platters.
Single disks can be purchased here also: https://www.fiberinstrumentsales.com/3m-diamond-lapping-film-4-5um.html
The price is pretty good.
…just in case you are looking for a dirt cheap power supply – these (or any other Sata/USB kit) work nicely: http://goo.gl/EPRWfJ
