Hardware, Tools, and Storage Questions

[Mr V]

For organizing hardware we use Stanley bins similar to the ones in Don's link but for the majority of them we use the deeper version, they are better suited to things that are larger or you would want to keep a larger stock of like bolts and rivets. We use the ones pictured for terminals and other smaller items. To store those we built a shelf with spacing so just one of the larger boxes fits on a shelf. The shelf and front of the box are labeled so it is easy to grab the needed items and make sure they are put back in the proper location. We used to stack a number of them on a single shelf but invariably you always need the box on the bottom of the stack.
