Hello, Kinda got ahead of myself and ordered a boat load of glass bottles(over 100) without thinking how do you store them?
Are there any foam cases or suitcase fixes to properly store these items without worrying about glass breakage?
Was thinking about some kind of foam insert cause the bottle are of different sizes most under 1/2 oz with range of 1 dram to 4 oz.
If there is a standard case that holds glass bottles that would be really great ,thanks for any thoughts.

The only eliquid/eJuice I have ever received from purchases via the Internet in a PLASTIC bottle was mist-stix. (JC, Blp, & Smoke Plantation are the ones I have used, and I prefer DIY mixing. I haven't ordered from a lot of vendors, but these sent bottles and they are reusable. This makes DIY very nice.)

We use glass dropper bottles for our product. They are actually a lot sturdier than you think they are. I find if you keep them on a shelf or in your fridge that you should be fine. I have dropped many a bottle from my regular height (about 5 feet at arm level) and they have not broken so they are stronger than you think they are (though i wouldnt purposly drop bottles if i were you) ;)

I've got 4 1/2 dram amber dropper bottles and I have beaten and banged them quite a bit and they are no worse for the wear. I doubt anything less than dropping them onto a concrete or hard tile floor would do anything to them and even then, depending on the angle they hit, they may still be fine.

Are you looking for something to store all 100 together or just something for a few to hold them in your pocket for all day vaping? If you're looking for all in one container, you could jut make a grid out of card stock and cut slits in it every 1/2" or so (or whatever the diameter of your bottles are) so the sheets fit together and give a bit of padding. Then put this in any box or container you like and load her up. For multiple layers, just put a layer of cardboard or cardstock between the layers.

To go the foam route, you can get pick and pluck foam from places that carry Pelican cases, like camera shops or Amazon, etc., but take a look up at Jo-Ann's or Michael's or some other craft store to find a foam you like and chances are it will be much less expensive than Pick and Pluck.

thanks everyone,I bought that many bottles cause they were dirt cheap like 20 something cents a piece, to store the liguid in cause its hot in my area over the plastic.It good to hear how durable they are,thinking the card stock will work great. Will not use em much to go out with more to keep in.Just ordered a lot of diy stuff before the bottles to have a years supply for the beginning of the year.
