Could never get the hang of those sandwich bags... I always want to eat the contents of them... though it's a good way to store the sawdust... on a moment of inspirational thought while typing, the jars stay upright and easier to get into one handed.
I am a glass bottle tragic and store all my stuff in them, That's why I avoid vine bottles in favour of casks... you can't put nails into a vine bottle... ok, but they're bloody hard to get out. I like to see up front what I'm looking for... I link it to the downfall of the new LJ format that depends on a search engine to look for something you don't know the name of.
I only use the 1 large bottles for when I need heaps of sawdust for the many big oopsies and am now a square jar convert. Whatever I decant into a glass jar (I can feel another hint growing in momentum), the lid always seem to seize up on me, and aided by my dodgy left arm and "reattached" 1/2 right thumb I have to go to extremes to remove the lid. Square jars fit neatly in a vice and a strap wrench is great on the lid, without what used to be the inevitable spillage.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
