Hi Katrina,
I always cut my own by hand and grind the edges too. If you cannot find an easy ready-made solution, I can send you a blurb of how to do this and some tried-and-tested sealant information too.
With all good wishes, Simon

Hi All,
We have a historical glass jar storing a nemertine worm whose lid has cracked and is no longer forming a seal. Because the worm is prepared so uniquely and the jar is so tall (41.5 cm tall), the likelihood of finding a replacement is pretty low unless we invest in a custom made jar (which is unlikely since it’s a teaching specimen).
Does anyone know if there is a glue/epoxy that we could use to stabilize the cracks in the jar lid that won’t react with the ethanol preservative? Further, I’m not sure if there is a glue that won’t expand too much that it will further compromise the seal while we look for a more permanent solution.
Thank you for any insight you might have (picture of lid below).
