Where do you buy pipettes or syringes

for applying wet water (or alcohol) and then water and glue. I am
graduating from the 6th grade and spray bottles. In Denny's Coast
Line How To Ballast, his syringe looks like the real deal, not like
the one below, do I have to go to junkie supply store?



Is this the culprit?

USplastics if you want to get all fancy wash bottles work really well.  If it's your first trip to the site sorry for all the time you are about to kill  ;D

If you have a Farmer's feed or co-op store, they usually have veterinary syringes with needles. Nothing special req'd to purchase.

I mix my wet glue in an Elmer's bottle, then set the nozzle on "stun" instead of "kill"...  I hate fussing around with a bunch of extra stuff.  If something gets blown out, I can always go back and touch it up.
I do still have a syringe that I gleaned from a children's Tylenol bottle, but I haven't used it in years.

I mean this is apples and oranges. I never really had any problems with spray
bottles before because I always used alcohol instead of water and detergent. Never
used anything other than white glue (once some WS glue which is actually good).

With smaller, narrow focused scenes of the desert, this is gonna need a small
spray or the syringe. This will be like the movie "Rush" all over again.
