I get empty gelcaps from amazon and local nutrition food stores. They cost like $5 for between 100-1000. You can get them in a wide variety of sizes, though you might have trouble if you're looking for something larger than size "000" (1cm diameter, 2.6cm length). Here is a size chart[0] (but there are cheaper sources for the gelcaps).

- reaperman 2y agoWould want a capsule filling tray. The opening of the large portions of the capsules are positioned at the same level as the flat surface so you can just pile up a bunch of sugar or starch or whatever and use a scraper to level it all off, then assemble the tops of each capsule. https://www.pennherb.com/cap-m-quik-capsule-filler-F7B https://www.pennherb.com/cap-m-quik-capsule-filler-F7B
