Looking for amsteel 7/64 under 50ft.

Zedbra 06-30-2016 08:42 AM

My wife is asking me to find some small glass or plastic vials that her and my sons can fill with sand so that we can take them to her family in Europe when we visit them in a few weeks. I have no clue where to look for these - any ideas RS?

GLOW 06-30-2016 09:31 AM

michaels should have stuff like that but b/c i'm a cheap bastard i would suggest checking your nearest dollar store first. they also have a 'crafts' section and you might luck out.

Ya I'd check a dollar store too.. pretty sure I've bought them there for my kids before but the corks sucked and fell out all the time. It they're for gifts could glue the corks in though..

How big? How about just using an empty peanut butter or mayo container?

Bulk Barn if you have one nearby. Bad in the day we used film canisters for that.

have you checked to see if it is actually legal to bring the sand to a different country? I have a feeling isn't not...

Yes, I have tried to find that answer but either my Google skills are weak or I lack the patience to read all the 'can I bring it home' American threads. I'll get my wife to search - she speaks the language after all. EleGiggle

Probably depends on the country you're visiting, and whether they consider sand to be soil.

Yeah, I figured that - and we land in Italy but then travel to Slovenia. My wife is rethinking this gift.

If it's really important, you can always use those metal pill containers you get from Lee Valley Tools and tell airport officials it's cremains of a loved one. Kind of looks like sand, yeah?


EDIT: found link to them.

The small ones are perfect size.

Zedbra 07-01-2016 08:03 PM

^ thanks for the idea, but sand and remains are not alike. I have spread a few remains in the past - it is very white ash and powder like with chunks of bone, unlike brownish sand in many ways.

corollagtSr5 07-01-2016 08:33 PM

I say just do it and not lie about it. If they take it they take it. You gamble $20 dollars for the containers and the sand is free.
