Acid containers? Cool item, but other than a factory setting, where would one use them?
In any case, thanks for reviewing them, James!

Could they also be used as wine making jugs, again in a diorama. A bootlegging dio would be interesting
Modelling is something we never perfect. We should never quit learning new tricks and be willing to share what we have learned on our own.

My grandfather used to keep his wine in these things. This item would work in almost any european dioramas with a wine theme.

So, ''acid'' containers looks too much restrictive: in a dio on WWII italian front, put them on a german or US truck, as wine containers, and they are perfect !

These are better known as demijohns or carboys.
Designed to carry a wide variety of liquids but in
many European countries very common in the wine
making process.
Cheers,
Joe

Joe, I haven't heard those two terms before, thanks for the info!
Wine was the first thought that came to mind when I saw these, which I attempted to replicate with the red coloring.
Thanks for all the feedback on these, Gentlemen
