I usually get my base supplies (PG, VG, Nicotine) from Heartland Vapes. Flavors, syringes and needles I go to Wizard Labs. Pipettes and Dropper Bottles I can get at Amazon.

I'll check MFS out...
I did think about trying those "one shot" pre-mix DIY kits that are getting more popular in the U.K. due to the TPD, but getting stuck with 250 or 500ml bottle of one flavor of juice I might not be crazy about would suck.. and would take forever to finish being a MTL vaper, DIY is the logical next progression since the juice companies don't really cater to that style anymore... everything is MAX VG (lite flavor) and 3 or 6mg nic... I'm mainly using, KFs, nautilus mini, ( icare and Von Earl for work) so I like (50/50 or 60/40) and 12mg nic for flavor and TH.
When looking for bottles to mix in and also to fill your tanks or drip, the referred ones are LDPE or PET bottles or of course glass(glass is hard to fill tanks with)
Amazon has a lot of these types of bottles and so for starting out, you need to figure out what you want. Available in all sizes from 5ml up to 1 litre. Just type ldpe bottles in Amazon search bar.
Here is a link for syringes and blunt needles

You could buy a kit so you have all in one starting place but you don't have to mix that much flavor up in any one bottle. Up to you to decide but I think if it were me I would wash and reuse some of my store bought empty eliquid bottles to mix much lower amounts.

@Cosmic_Glaze - Are you located in the UK...since you mentioned it above? Where you are would make a big difference in who you order supplies from, IMO.
I plan on getting 10ml bottles so I can do small batches and test diff % of the same juice. I'm looking for to speed up the process instead of waiting 2 weeks and if it fails I won't be starting from scratch I could have diff % bottles A, B, & C of the "same flavor" juice to narrow the recipe down and fine tune it faster.You could buy a kit so you have all in one starting place but you don't have to mix that much flavor up in any one bottle.

Thanks for the link.
I still stand by my original post as you can make any sized bottles you want. I watched the video you linked and the thought of how he was doing it really doesn't tell/show you what you need to be successful in DIY. jmho
Here is the US we do basically the same thing just on a smaller scale and we figure out (by using DIY calculators--or paper and pencil) just how much of everything we need to complete a recipe.
Places like onestopdiyshop.com has blends and flavorings that only require us to measure the amount we want of the flavoring and then add our pg/vg/nic. They have very tasty blends such as blueraz, baked cinn role, southern sweet tea and lots more. These are more than single flavors in that they have already mixed the flavoring for us all in one bottle.
We can help you step by step if that is what you want. I feel its extremely important for a new mixer to have success in mixing almost immediately because it helps to build confidence that you CAN do this and also it gives you something of your own to vape while playing with other recipes and that takes the pressure to succeed off the new mixer.
Just let us know if/when you want us to help in any way. There are many members here that are willing to do this.
