Capsule Holder

A tool for holding the lower half of a pill capsule for filling it yourself.

My wife and I have been taking some supplements as part of fertility treatments, but some of the supplements are pretty pricey. She found that buying empty pill capsules and buying the same supplement in powder form was drastically cheaper. But, filling the capsules is pretty tedious, and many a capsule lay at the bottom of the bag of supplement powder because they're small and slippery. So I designed this simple tool to hold the bottom half of the capsule securely, allowing you to scoop the contents up and place the top over it without having to hold everything with your finger tips.

The hole for the capsule is 5.65mm in diameter...I don't know what that equates to in pill lingo, since I'm no pill capsule expert; I'm just a guy who put a hole in a twig to solve a problem. The widened base is so it can be held against a flat surface and stay stable in case the contents need to be pressed/packed into
