I bought a new doser that has a built-in mixer. I am having a hard time finding cylinders for it and the "real ones" are on backorder and very expensive. I tried VOSS bottles, but the bottom need to be flat.

They can be glass or acrylic. Preferably with a cap, but I can figure that out if not.

60mm od, about 500ml

Don't know if you have one near you, but for my wedding we got these tall glass containers that we put flowers underwater and floated a candle on top. Sounds almost exactly what you're referring to. Don't know if you could make something like this work
These ones are 10"

These ones are 12" and a bigger diameter

You might try a commercial plastic supply . what's Ah Tap plastics or sych? Who's the Guy here who makes ATS & acrylic fabrication, advise. His Avatar is Johnny Carson. He might could help Ya.

3 3/8" wide is 85mm. I need 60 mm
 
Exotic inc. Is a large Industrial supplier, Motion industries, and Alro are also a good source, BUT.... LAIRD plastics should be the first place you should look for DIY and of course there's ebay for cutoffs and leftovers for cheap!

Do you mean for the GHL doser? The 'mixer' is just a port for a stir bar accessory and it can handle up to 94 mm diameter containers (according to the notes)? I'm using one even bigger than that.

These guys sell just about anything you're looking for, but they're pricey. McMaster.com

Not sure if they sell it in metric units though.
