Blade holder tubes

[KarlB]

While at my local Dollar Tree today I saw these tubes with a little watch inside of it.  They look like the Baby Soda Bottle Test Tubes I believe that were mentioned before:

These were 1$ each but obviously no shipping involved, plus the watches will go to my daughter, niece and gifts to whoever.

I made a quick stand to hold the blades I just recently bought, but I will make another holder later on.

They are perfect size and they held the paper Mike supplies with his blades.  I placed a Fastcap screw cover on top (White) for identification.

Such a great deal I may go back for a few more!!

cool - which colors are the watches?

That's pretty slick Karl, and I like the stand too. Guess I'll have to check the local Dollar Tree to see if it carries them.

Good find Karl!

I think I detect a 'marketing' background...I noted that in the photo the FD labels were all aligned to be easily read!!!

Gb, how can that be marketing when we already use the FD?

Anyway, I will check some 1 Euro-Shop here - Tubes for me, watches for the kids

Well not exactly marketing, but I've worked in retail management before and learned to make sure presentation was important.  I also learned to "front and face" all products on the shelf.  (Something I still do today without thinking when I'm shopping at Wal-Mart or other stores.  I guess old habits die hard.  )

Great idea.  The watches are cheap too.

@ heiko
And what will I do with the other 88 tubes? hmm... the small tubes would be fine for some products - but those are too small for the blades.

GOOD IDEA AND PRACTICE, thanks for sharing

A great find and a nice stand for them to. Thanks for sharing Karl.

Well went and got 5 more tubes (that makes 15).  That should hold me just fine.
