"Drop ceiling aluminum angle" is the support / finishing peice that you attach to the perimeter walls when you install a drop ceiling (see first photo below). All Home Depots, Lowes, etc. carry it in the "drop ceiling" section and it's inexpensive (10' for about $4). The side view photo of my "bin rack" shows it screwed (#6 x 3/8") to the top face of a peice of 1"x3" pine (other types of wood would work too).
Pick A Nut huh ... ok will have a look.
As a rule I buy Nuts and Bolts in box's of 100 - 1000 depending on size. So I need to be able to fit that sort of qty in many different styles, lengths, threads etc.
I liked the look of these.
But then I found the price $1,448.00 ... ummmm nope not for me ... :lol
Originally I thought that it would be too but with the back of the bin resting on the wood it's the wood that carries the bulk of the load. I screwed the aluminum to the wood at about 4" intervals but I probably could have gone with 6". You can apply pressure to the bins with your hand that exeeds the weight of a bin full of hardware and the aluminum will flex a bit but it will not let go or even bend. The first one surprised me ... so I made more!
That model 350 looks like the one I have.I have of those grey 81 bin cabinets. No jars or cans, easy to find what you want and get it.
Similar to this ... except mine is much larger. They are pricey, but last forever.

Wow!! Nice cabinets. But they look too nice to be nicking up with nuts and bolts.I bought a file card cabinet from a Library sale. The Library was getting rid of them and switching over to computerized record keeping. It cost me a $100 and they delivered it and put it in place for me.
It's got 72 drawers, with inside dimensions of 5"x14½"x3½" in height. I keep all my nuts & bolts in the drawers, as well as a ton of other "stuff".
The little one, next to the main one, was bought at a junk store for $40.00........but I had to move it
