    Isn't it interesting all the different things we find to sole the same problem?

    I used to use the plastic container that film came in for broken needles. I just put a hole in the top. Even it if tipped over, the needles did not fall out.

    I do need a better solution for dull and nicked rotary blades.

    I use empty prescription bottles. Hit the bottle with a blast of hot air from a hairdryer for about 30 seconds and the label will peel off like a dream.
