Very close (not 90-degree, but very close). But what bottle will they screw onto?
This is driving me crazy, because I've SEEN the damn things I have in my mind, I just can't find them. I've pounded my fingers dead web surfing for them.
Are you going to stock those as well???
I've seen the angled top bottles but smallest I have run across is 2 oz.
If they come in somewhere in the 5 - 6 ml range, I would likely only need one fill for most of the day. Probably just keep a backup carto and small bottle of liquid for longer days.

that's what i use to drip with anyway... you can get them for $1.80 ea (1/2oz bottle with needle cap) from Racers-edge.com... shipping is priority (like notcigs) so you should get a few for different flavors.
the one on the top is exactly like the racers-edge ones... 'cept they have a red cap.
You can get these for about $4.00 on Ebay.I know the ones your talking about. they were all plastic and bent over to one side.

Or this from Johnson Creek.Accessories - Flex-tip Cartridge Needle
Ya I read where the slotcar guys use these. I don't have a problem filling mine but if I could get that cap to screw on a juice bottle it would eliminate one step. No problems with slipping either as my fusions fit so tight I use a press to put them in. The only problem with filling is it needs to vent air out at the same time. The needle I use is one of those flexible ones and at under 2 minutes to fill with no cleanup or spilled juice is okay for me.
the cap does fit some juice bottles; not sure of the specs but they do fit a 15ml bottle that i have... .
This one is 30ml. And you could use a flexible needle on it cause it has a normal type needle on it.

Mike, I would give it a try anyway just because I like you guys. My hope is you would offer it as an option for that 6-32 machine screw thingy. If not...I would take it to a tool place and ask them to switch it out for me. I honestly know nothing about screw sizes and certain tools and little connector thingys people talk about here. What seems like simple terminology for some is a forein language to others. Myself and others don't have and/or don't want "handy hubbies or boyfriends" hanging around to do alot of stuff for us that comes naturally to many of you. It's "hands on-show me" ...and THEN/USUALLY the lightbulb turns on for me. In fact, it always helps me when people here post pics and diagrams. I love that!! It really helps clarify certain subjects that are a topic of discussion.
I am curious about how hard it would be to get some of the shorter knurled screws, like the pic I posted earlier. By shorter I just mean the knurled head part, not the screw length.
Through the top?
Edit** I just got a PM asking if I sell this tank and I want to make it clear that I do not. I posted the picture just to give Mike a different idea. I just thought the top port was interesting. I tried very hard to get one of these last year but found it wasn't worth the effort. It was very expensive and never really made it to market. Sorry if I overstepped.

When I discussed this with Mike I wanted a top port. He likes the locking screw idea as a way to differentiate the tank from others on the market. 
Has anyone tried something like this to punch cartos? General Tools and Instruments
Don't have a tank yet, but for $10 at HD I might pick one up just to play with

Tend to agree. While a top port has some merits. The locking effect of the current design outshines it for me. As I said before the biggest problem ive had is with sliding in other tanks.When I discussed this with Mike I wanted a top port.

Might work. Ive punched a few previously. Biggest thing to watch is not to bend the carto. With that being spring loaded it might do it fast enough not to bend itHas anyone tried something like this to punch cartos? General Tools and Instruments

Just dont shoot yourself in the finger
A finishing nail and small screws have worked for folks so it should do the job. I have my slots down pretty well so am a Dremel guy.
