Eddy, once sucked down there should be no further "give". The gasket compresses and just forms a seal. However I do not think that PODZ is the answer as I imagine that with profiled alphabet letters nos. etc. it would be very difficult to be able to cut right through without damaging the pod as the items are likely to be quite small. "Tagging" does work very well, and nib/tab/tag removal is very easy. Double sided tape does work ok, but if there are a lot of small components it means a lot of tape to apply and remove. G.
