High-precision Analytical Balance

On my first day, one of my tasks was assembling and calibrating this $7,500 analytical balance. I was so excited. Balances like this are by far my favorite laboratory equipment. It was shipped so neatly packed, as to be expected. It took me over an hour to set up and calibrate it but was completely worth it. This thing is accurate to 1mg. That's 0.001g! Astounding!
$7,500 analytical balance.
Before: crazy.
After: clean.
Also on the first day of the internship, Susanna and I unpacked and organized all of the equipment into the new lab space.


On the plus side, I was given my own lab workstation to use.

My humble workspace.
