If you've been fiddling with your hobby car for as many years as I
have, I suspect you're like me and no matter what type of store you 
happen to be in you are always on the lookout for a handy gadget 
that might make maintenance and restoration work a bit easier.  

In an earlier posting I mentioned that I don't like to use a turkey
baster to empty brake reservoirs because they tend to dribble fluid
when they're full.  While I was at the supermarket today, I discovered 
what looked like a better alternative.  In the barbecue supplies section 
I found a squeeze bottle baster.  It consisted of a plastic bottle with a

screw on top with about a 3" long metal tube sticking out of it.  The
tube's diameter was about 1/8", so I doubt it would dribble much, if at 
all.  And if you withdrew the tube while it was still sucking, you could 
pretty much guarantee no dribbling.  The price was about $3.50.
