After knocking over liquid cement bottles a couple of times, I decided to tip-proof the jar. I drilled out the center of a hockey puck with a 11⁄2″ hole saw. Now I can insert the cement bottle into the hole, making the fit tight with tape. There’s no way it can tip over.

The setup has the added advantage of allowing the jar to be opened with one hand, thanks to the puck’s weight and the rubber’s grip on the workbench.
