Re: [DIYbio] Kickstarter Campaign for Polyfuge: A DIY Open-Source Microcentrifuge for Everyone

Have you stress-tested your enclosure? I don't want to imagine a class
of enthusiastic elementary school children being horrified after a few
of them get microfuge tubes lodged in their eyes.
Will you similarly test each enclosure? Do you also calibrate the
rotors for balance? Do you have this part of Quality Control and
Quality Assurance built-in to your business plan?
