broke my Iwata cleaning station :(

I broke the glass part of my Iwata Cleaning Station. Does anyone know of a good replacement? Too cheap at the moment to buy another, there's got to be some jar out there on which that lid will fit. Nothing in my house so far...

If you give the diameter someone who doesn't have one might still be able to suggest an alternative.

Shouldn't be too hard as jars are standardised, although there may be a metric/imperial issue depending on where you are.

Good point. The inside diameter is 3 & 7/16", sorry don't have metric handy

You can use a plastic box (i.e. fridge food box should make the deal) with a cover and just make a big hole then really small ones at the opposite corner. The plastic box might not work with enamel paints and solvants, depend on the plastic.

You can also buy cheap glass ones on ebay, from chinese sellers. Here just 50RMB, around 8USD.

Maths does provide: 1/16 = 0.0625, x7 = 0.4375 so that's 3.4375"
x25.4 for millimetres = 87.3125mm.

I'd guess that outside diameter is used though, so if you have to buy 3.5" could be it.
