The idea is good, but please put some more instructions/explainings in ;)

you can get the jar from nail painting or medicine case

medicine I've never see look like that but nail polish I hadn't thought of. Wife never uses the stuff so I dont see the bottles much.

did you dilute the ink?

I'd like to make larger ones.

maybe water or alcohol or acetone.....

yes, i dilute the ink

Guys, i was update it

That liquid is fluorescent... Try it with a ultraviolet LED ☺

i gotta try it with uv leds at both end of a 1/4" tube of the liquid

needs more instructions but still got the main idea
