I'm looking for any empty 1/2 oz or 1/3 oz. glass model paint bottles. It
doesn't matter if the bottle is empty or contains old dried out paint, as
long as it is glass ( not plastic ) and the lid still fits tightly. If
anyone has 5 or more lying around to get rid of or sell, let me know.
I found several excellent sources for bottles & jars on the web & eBay,
but nothing comes even close to the size & shape of model paint bottles.
( dram vials are way too tall & skinny ).

Look up item 81267 at http://micromark.com/ . You can probably get
them even cheaper from any discounting Walthers dealer .

Also http://www.sciplus.com/ carries some really small bottles.
