Thanks CCG... btw, I'm sure I've passed through your area a few times in my travels to the cape over the years.

Actually, it was funny, I'd had a few ideas for cleaning seeds, most were variations on what I've read here on DG and other places but wasn't motivated to make anything, thinking there must be something I can make that's easier, and/or cheaper. I stopped by the restaurant supply store to look at sifters when I came across the measuring cup with the interchangeable lids. Don't even know what it's intended use is for in cooking. After I bought it I realized I have a bunch of Pringles containers (the cardboard tube type) with plastic lids but without holes. I could have made something myself for nothing. Btw, I use the smaller pringles containers for bulk/bulky seed storage. They have a foil inner-lining and the lids fit very snuggly for great moisture protection. I've know the Crystal Light containers, and was tempted to start drinking tea, when a friend of mine introduced me to the Pringles container. Her kids eat them semi-regularly and she saves them for me. See the pic below for one of the many things I've done with them.
