"I can guarantee you that I will make an absolute mess of the hot glue >_> and possibly fail to seal the hole properly anyways." I believe you, attitude is everything! "Having to repeat the sealing process every refill will definitely be too involved for me to handle." Not if you don't change...

"I know I can't do top-fill because it requires an air-tight seal that I can't produce (my German hole is all jagged from my attempts to cut off all the little plastic bits, and yes, I use scotch tape to plug the hole)." Not so! Buy a hobbyist's hot glue/melt gun and use it to seal the top...

Rod, No, it was my suggestion that we freeze our inks that was taken too seriously. Our posters used ice-cube trays and when summer came (global warming!!) they (the cubes) were thrown into the punch bowls--even my Colormunki got drunk (pun intended!!). Best to you in OZ--look me up sometime...

Must be the ink, I suggest you back to my satirical article of last year describing how make your own from fruits & veggies. I even included suggestions about re-converting all that paper (inro photo paper) my (US) government used to print a zillion copies of the US Health Bill-each copy was...
