    just saw the tops off plastic pop/water bottles, sand smooth, use 5 min epoxy and a vice, and boom. Micro storage containers.

    Super badass! That'd be perfect for Mexican maple leaf storage

    Wow, what a great idea....

    folks make sling shots out of bottle tops as well....
    the micro capsules are great.

    large one made from two gatorade bottles, for PJCB tinder. One lid is hot glued sealed. Managed to stuff 50+ cotton balls soaked in wax and vaseline.

    try laying a sheet of 80 grit sandpaper on the table and rough sanding the base of the screw-top. All the rough sanding marks will hold the epoxy better. I will admit that since getting my Dewalt glue gun, its all i use now....LOL
