To prevent overturning an ink bottle while working I use a SMALL BIT OF DOUBLE STICK CARPET TAPE. Regular two sided tape is not good enough. Carpet tape really holds on to the bottle.Place a patch of tape on the desk somewhere and use your thumbnail to press it firmly onto the surface. Press the bottle down onto the tape and it holds it very well. The type of glue in the tape is "gummy" so the bottle can be pulled off but not bumped over! It also will come off the desktop with a little effort. See photo
