I need a grabber for 3-deep storage

Oh, I got it! Do you have enough space to insert a tape measure between the bottle and cylinder wall. Extend the tape measure and use the end of the tape measure to grab the bottle from behind and pull it out.

Aren’t you glad you turned to Berserkers for help, Chris?

I’m just surprised someone hasn’t suggested that you convince the company to change its storage system. That would be a more typical Berserker solution.

How about a sink drain grabber, Chris?

Looks sturdy enough and small enough to fit in the tube. They come in various lengths, so should be long enough.
I just don’t k ow if the clamp opens large enough to fit over the bottle neck and if can hold the weight without releasing as you pull

Load the tube by putting a small explosive charge in first, then use the deep bottle to push it in. Make sure you hold on to the other end of the wires. Use some Daily Drinkers as Guinea pigs to dial in the charge so that it just pushes the bottle to the front of the tube. Easy peasy.

That looks perfect. Big thanks. Not sure why all my assorted searches never brought that up.

@Anton_D FTW!

It’s not strong enough. It’s made to pick up nuts and bolts.

This from Access Tools. I sell them. I’ll have to bring a bottle out to my truck and see if the loop fits. They make one with a bigger loop but it’s twice as long as well.

The “snare” approach (I assume that’s what is going on there) makes total sense.

Yeah, it took a bit of digging to find it but I was committed to the mission. I may also need it in the future

A trained ferret?

Attach a pull string when you load them, that way if that grabber is lost again you can always unload.
