TFP- OCD, LOL! Yep I like to have things color coordinated. I like the tackle box...
lol! I picked something similar up at Harbor Freight - it fits the Speed Stir as well! Now everything is in one neat, tidy little box!
Yep i'm OCD, and my kit box overhaul is in the planning stages now. I have the foam, just looking for the right box.

I think you are referring to the mixing tubes we use for specific tests (FC, TA, CH). they are provided with the TF-100.
The samplesizer is the blue metal thing on the left side of my box. It allows you to fill up one of the Taylor 9198 sample tubes to the rim, insert the samplesizer, and it pushes out the exact amount of water to leave you with either 10ml or 25ml (depending on which way you insert it). The 9198 tube also happens to be the tube that works with the speed stir
Sorry to derail the post a bit... I currently have the Taylor Chlorine FAS-DPD Service Complete Test Kit K-2006C which is great. Its in its second year, so I will replace with the TF-100 kit in 2020 opening. My question is can I buy 6-8oz plastic bottle with squirt top and use to bulk collect water as opposed to kneeling down each time? If so, what special precautions/steps do I need to take to clean/maintain the plastic bottle?
Go to Wally World in the kitchen department and grab the .99 cent ketchup squeeze bottles. They hold enough to do all your testing.
I used to use a plastic measuring cup with a spout. It broke, so now I just use an old tupperware drinking glass. Use it once, put it in the dishwasher. I rinse it a couple times with pool water before I shove it down to get a sample.
I believe a prominent national pool store chain gives those bottles away.
Dollar store squirt top drinking bottle here
It's blue (a color we don't use for personal use)::^ That is the kids version, I got the largest size they had at the time
My testing stuff when in full swing (I have kiddos who "assist")

The bottles are free, but the 5-gallon car washing buckets run about $100.
if your near a leslies they have a squirt tip bottle for free. probably 8 oz I think.

With the TF-100 kit, save your empty CYA bottle. They make great sample bottles as well.
