I might have a go at making one of those Chris, next time I use oil base [alkyd], which by the look of the interior window sills on the house may not be far off.... Some of the 10 litre paint pails here are steel and have a re-usable band locked lid with a rubber seal, which I think would do the job. Maybe some kitty litter, or one of those oil soaker pads on the bottom saturated with solvent, a couple of bits of 6mm round pushed through???
Bob is right about the white spirits, we used to use it in the workshop as a degreaser by the 20 litre pail but it eventually got so expensive we found it more cost-effective [and less risk of fire] to buy 20 litre pails of Brakleen™ instead.
