So, I've discovered the ultimate freebie for modelers, especially modelers in search of a tasty treat and a load of freebies... The yogurt container.

This little devil comes complete with a tray for mixing paint, foil for straps and such, a container for holding small parts, debris, or whatever and it includes a tasty treat that fun to eat.

Yes, the yogurt container has it all folks! It's fat-free and comes in a variety of flavors! And it costs less than $1!

I also use them as bottle holders....... Cut 1/2 of the container off Put a couple of cuts in the bottom add some weight and hot glue to the lid!!!!

Ive used Breyers Lids when i was out of styrene because theyre so thin and can be shaped.

Scocia - if you use tub butter, or wife uses sour cream, etc
you may find some household substitutes.
If you do -
advise the wife that they are out of date, throw contents down sink, containers in dishwasher, and presto!!!
