I feel creative

We buy our oil in bulk, in these giant jugs. I hate pulling out of the top shelf just for a tablespoon, or to coat a pan. Since then, I've wanted a bottle that pours oil.
Like this one:
But I could never justify spending upwards of $30 for one.
So I got my empty contact solution bottle ...
Like this one:
And ran the cap under hot water. Those caps DO NOT come off ... so I had to soften the plastic to pop it off. I cleaned it out, filled it with oil and ....
the oil didn't pour out like I expected.
Upon examination, I found that the hole in the top was built more for dripping than pouring.
But I fixed it! I stuck a fork in the hole and now ...
It pours!!
I LOVE IT!
