Hello Henk, you certainly seem to have generated a stir around here. Nice to see another soap (and brush) maker joining the merry band.
Greetings from the Netherlands

I used to have loads of those. I even spooled my own film. Dunno if I still have any canisters left, but if you are comfortable with it, I can surely try and find some.

Worst case you can either dip sterilise them or wrap the soap in clingfilm and stuff it in the canister (I did that giving a friend a Proraso sample)

OK guys, soap samples have been packed (in ziploc freezer bags) and readied for shipment. They will go out today, by regular mail (TPG Post at my end, Royal Mail at your end, i.e. most of you anyway).
Let me know if and when they arrive.
Cheers
Henk

We'll, they're not NEARLY as nice as the ones I used to buy in the US even 18 years ago, but hey, they work...

I had a load of them here - proper Ziplock® ones - the "Ziplock" bit was great, the bags were very flimsy and prone to puncture though (which was a pain since they were mostly used to freeze curry sauce base)

Correct, But they also make/made heavier duty film bags. The zippers are easily cosed by hand (no alignment problems), close very well and stay closed, and most importantly, can be opened without destroying the bag. How many times have you tried to open one of these flimsy single zipper baggies (think the baggies that fly tying materials come in), only to tear the top edge off of the zipper...
