I use mini M&M tubes…
geoff
Hi Kurt, The containers look a very similar to film canisters. I was able to find film canisters on Ebay for a very reasonable price. I just read that coin storage tubes sized for Quarters work well. Ebay has listings for 25 Quarter sized tubes for $12.95 with free shipping Fred
Depending how much fuel you need to bring, kinder egg pods might work they are very light.
AMAZON carries all kinds of sizes,so does USPLASTICS but I just go to my local hobby store to pick them up
You can buy tubes made for holding quarters (the tabs are pretty close in diamteter) from amazon or ebay. For example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/10-Round-Clear-Plastic-Quarter-Size-Coin-Storage-Tube-Holders-with-Screw-Lid-/271169531256?hash=item3f22f6ad78:g:61sAAOxyQj9RPKzY
Thanks for the ideas guys. I think I answered my own question I went to Home Depot today to get some epoxy filler and I found this
looks like it will work perfect.
Does that Home Depot one work? Correctly-sized?
I found a pack of M&M minis last night and they fit six tablets really nicely.
I actually got 7 Coghlan's tabs to to fit into a Mini M&M tube. It's a tight fit, but the lid will snap on snugly. My quarter tube just holds 5, but I like the way the cap screws on tightly to keep any water out. I especially liked the above eBay link that gets us 10 quarter tubes for $5.99, so I ordered a set over the weekend. Those are pretty handy–I keep $10 worth of quarters in the glove box for the car wash, or an emergency laundromat run when I'm on the road. They don't come filled with M&Ms though, but they are cheaper (and more waterproof).
Brian, Yes the Home Depot one fits perfect. The only thing that might be a problem is the cap is not super tight. I may look for some screw cap quarter containers locally or treat myself to some M&M's.
