I thought they were like bourbon lids, meant to be discarded once
removed.

I use the after market squeeze ketchup containers. Then I use a RED wire nut
for the cover. Works for me. ww

I started buying the little replacement bottles at HF.

for some reason they don't clog as easily as the titebond bottles,
And if one is a pain, the others are usually good to go.
I buy by the gallon, I was using a titebond quart to reload into but the
problem you are talking about finally convince me to try the small
bottles. They are great, easy to squeeze. You can make a wide tip, a
narrow tip....
They don't clog as easy, I think mainly due to the lack of a protrusion
to clog..(the moveable tip).

Sure I close it all the time, but then I wind up having to open it with my
teeth because the other hand is holding something. After 3 or for chewings
in a project I eventually forget and put the bottle on the shelf open.

I know, i used to use old mustard bottles for years and for grins tried
this bottle and I'd have to say, I really like it and would and will
buy another.
It's handy, even has a place to put the cap{on top) when using it

It's not a biggie, it just always seems to happen when I have both hands
full. That crap tastes terrible, too.

I'm going to get some of those, next time I'm at HF. Thanks.
I also use this...

I like it for the replaceable tips. When one clogs, it goes in the trash.
Those HF bottles will be used in the same way.

do you have to clean out the top opening of the glue bottle before you learn
to close it after every use? Or do you ever?
Steve
I buy glue by the gallon. Pour into the Ketchup sweeze bottle that has a
life off plastic top and a nozzle that I cut to a 1/8 inch opening. I cap it
with an electrical (red) wire nut. You can find these bottles at WalMart or
maybe the dollar store. Some times glue will dry in the top of the nozzle
and I just twist in a deck screw and pull out the dried glue. I keep several
bottles filled so I don't need to stop on large projects when one runs dry.
