GLP-1 Vial Cases: Where to Buy?

I think I need to buy a case to hold all my vials now. Does anyone have a preferred indie seller over the big companies? I'd prefer to buy via Etsy if I can!
 
I'm not sure who is even selling these days - I haven't been keeping up! Cases used to be discussed all the time, but not so much anymore. Hopefully, someone has some good suggestions for you!
 
I got a couple of cases right from the R23D Printing webpage. One holds two dozen vials for my freezer, and a smaller one that holds a handful for when I'm travelling. Great quality and shipped fast!
 
For my stockpile I use a Pelican 1120 case. I took out the foam insert, threw in some desiccant packs, and then loaded it with vial packs. Seems to do the trick!

I read that condensation can be an issue, so I let it sit at room temp for an hour before opening. I might get a smaller case for 2-3 months' worth so I don't have to open the big case as often.
 
Actually, that one came from EWB. And even though Tier3d has my number (lol) I've never ordered any cases from him!
 
I found some essential oil cases for 3ml vials on that big online retailer site. They hold the vials securely and are cheap, simple, and come in lots of shapes and sizes.
 
I use some 3ml vial storage containers from LayeredGenius3D on Etsy. Good prices, and I'm happy with them.
 
But so boring, lol!

That big online retailer also sells lunchbox-sized ice packs that fit perfectly in the mesh pocket!
I prefer the 3D-printed ones. I got several from our 3D printing guru back when he was selling them, including some cool custom designs. But really, whatever works best, right? I used to use shotgun shell cases.
 
Oh, I forgot to ask if you liked that prize for the 1000th member? It's been quite a while now, since we are over 8000!
 
Thinking about cost? Add up how much these cases will cost and think that a decent 3D printer like the A1 Mini is only about $250.

The A1 (larger) type is $400. You can print your own!

  • Printable files are freely available.
  • A small case takes only a tiny bit of filament.
  • Screws are inexpensive.

If you source peptides, you can learn how to use a modern, reliable 3D printer. It's a super tool. I've printed a lot of cases and a caddy for my 2-vial box so I can store my vials in the fridge exactly how I want.
 
With a Bambu printer, it's really simple to get started. Other brands have fans, but Bambu has made these really easy to use and reliable. If you have average skills, you're good to go.

Things might go wrong--like clogs--but it is infrequent. Minor issues have been rare for me, and I've had no clogs. Anything that does go wrong is covered in the documentation or forums. Replacement parts are also cheap.

Also, unless you're in a dry climate, filament can degrade if left out. Use it quickly, or get an airtight storage box with desiccant beads. The bins from home improvement stores are ideal. As for desiccant, get a pound of the cheapest silica or alumina beads you can find online, put them in a sock or mesh bag, and recharge them in the oven once a year.

Once you know how to print other designs, you can learn Fusion 360, which has a free tier. Soon, you can design your own objects to fix stuff around the house. It's amazing.
 
I bought this thing for my work station to stash swabs, needles, BAC, etc.

It'd be cool to have a custom one holding 1-2 small vials and 1-2 larger vials on one side, and space for needles and swabs on the other, with some space in the middle.
