currently in an assortment of Ziploc bags and takeaway containers, since that's how they got transported home from meets at Eastercon and Worldcon. :-) I need to a) find a better method b) actually get around to using them.

12G shotgun shell cases. They're the perfect size for 5ml ink vials, although the one I usually get seems to no longer be available.

@StarSloth in theory in a fancy set of mini-drawers I made myself with cardboard and bookbinding paper, with dividers in each drawer to keep the vials vertical. There is a bit of paper that folds over the top with the name of the ink, to make it easier to identify and use them.

some of them

the latest batch I bought is *temporarily* in the cardboard box of some component from the house electrical system, with dividers quickly made from bits of cardboard packaging from some groceries, until I make more drawers.

I'm not sure I'll ever make enough drawers before I buy even more samples :D

(and I should work on publishing the plans for the drawers, some day)

@penfount I got a skinny little three-tiered cart off ali express that is stuffed full of ink bottles and crammed in the few inches between my desk and bookcase, but it can roll out if I need easy access.

i also keep my samples among other ink bottles and it's a bad solution for me, they fall over and roll around and become invisible etc. None has leaked yet. Thus my search for a better solution. Hope you too find some inspiration in the thread, there's been a few good tips so far!

3D printed sample vial holders for the moment. Though the ones I printed don't hold them as well as I'd like, some are a bit loose.
