Nuts & Bolts Storage - What Do You Guys Prefer?

[NUTTSGT]

ANYTHING with drawers. dont get the open bin style..... they just collect dust... eventually i hope to pony up for a nice vimdar cabinet that i can store all my misc **** in one spot...

My bins are behind closed doors and are not collecting dust.

Stop posting your neat set ups, and your tons of fasteners. I hate my set up and haven't addressed it. You make me feel like I need an intervention. I can't find stuff (cabinets full of parts) on CL, Kijiji etc - although my indy garage guy found a real steal on cabinets so they exist.

Ah never mind, post away...I need the ideas.

C'mon my friend, we're all addicts that need an intervention.

These are the storage options. There and my option-capacity free, transparent plastic. The size makes it very convenient to get the nuts and bolts. You can crop to any size in height.

Since this is not posted on Facebook, my family will never know


To the OP:
One of my challenges is I have a mixture fasteners that were rejected from the dollar store (very soft). My plan should be to rid myself of that ****, find a suitable storage solution and start the process of filling the empty slots.

My electrical connectors / electronics stuff is in plastic containers similar to the pictures posted. I have a tool box just for electronics related tools and supplies.

I guess only a partial intervention is required.

it funny I found this thread today on hardware storage. I have alot of fasteners and I am tired of the plastic organizer boxes. I was at Home Depot today and saw this cabinet. Nice short drawers, full extension hinges, and many compartments. I climbed all over these boxes and couldnt find a name on the cabinet. Anyone know where I can pick up some of these?

i got five gallon bucket full of nuts and bolt, not enough shop to store them like a hardware store, so I been throwing all mine away and just hit the hardware store when i need some. think of all the bolts you will never need, hanging on to junk for twenty years, taking up space. if its not a 7/16 1/2 9/16 3/4 bolt, i don't need it
