Re: How do you store / organize parts?

In the past, my old team was lucky enough to have a large locking closet for parts. But that with a large build space disappeared.

So last year, we had a cupboard for electrical components, a cupboard for drivetrain, and one of those small rolling locking carts for everything else.

What you might want to do is find an old 4 drawer locking file cabinet and then sort the parts into there. 1 drawer for electrical, 1 for drivetrain (motors, gears, sprockets, etc.), 1 for paperwork-software-etc, and 1 for metal and other random things. When you outgrow the first file cab... find another. Also remember that legal is wider than letter (more storage space ;-)
