Powder Bottles Pictures?

[Bobby Ironsights]

Does anyone know of any good pics of the bandolier powder bottles? I'm looking at picking up a lathe and wouldn't mind making a few dozen to make my flintlock shooting trips both more authentic, and handier, but am curious as to what the various period designs look like.

Unfortunately; my search terms must be off, this is the only good one I found, and I really like the lid design,it's designed to not require an absolute fit and keeps itself closed. Neat.

EDIT, okey dokey, turns out they're called powder apostles, that's better.

Not terribly obvious in the photo above, but I think they have a cord on both sides and a cap that slides down the cords to cover the bottle. Should be 12 of them hence the name of apostles. In your photo the caps appear to be metal.

I would associate the pictured powder apostles with match locks. You might try some of the English Civil War reinactement sites as a source. By the flinklock era, the military had switched to paper cartridges.
