Idea Exchange: A case for storing tattoo ink

Article

Here's a good use for that spare contact lens holder.

Our animal shelter policy is to tattoo every animal that we alter as a permanent identification of its neutered status. Rather than leave the tattoo ink in the squeeze tube that it is sold in, we store it in a plastic contact lens case. This inexpensive container helps us to decrease ink waste.
