Re: Organizing Tips
We have two separate tool boxes on our team. One for mechanical tools, and one for electrical tools. Both tool boxes have separate screwdrivers and other common tools, labeled with an E or an M (I suggest EL and ME, however). We tried two different ways of organizing them. In the mechanical tool box, we took some black styrofoam like material (I'm not sure of the name off hand here), laid out all of our tools on multiple sheets, one for each drawer, and cut out spaces for all the tools. This way, we ensure that all the tools get back by checking the tool boxes for empty spaces.
In the electrical tool box, we have a few dividers in each drawer. In each divider, we have pictures of the tools that belong there. So, if we have 2 wire strippers in one divider, there will be a picture of the two wire strippers that go in that divider. This ensures that if a tool is missing, we know what to look for, and if someone needs to put a tool back, it easy to find where to put them.
