They also came in the old Tamiya Modern Accessory set.


Tamiya M26 truck kit has a nice set with torch end and regulators too.

How many do you need? I can probably spare a few.

Ball point pen body?
Beads for the top?
Push pin for the top?
Coffee stir stick?
sanded doweling?
sculpy clay or milliput?


Just some ideas off the top of my head.

Ditto on this technique. It is a very easy way to make realistic bottles.
