    Better organization solution than these plastic drawer cabinets?

    Many moons ago I used to find plastic milk crates and kitty litter containers in dumpsters. I use these for larger items or groups of similar items. I just keep an index card of what's in each container near the containers' locations. Good luck finding a more appropriate system. As you said...

    Very simple home (or business) inventory program ?

    I use Excel to keep track of pretty much everything in my house and garage. I can't see why using a spreadsheet would not work for stuff stored in boxes, especially if you group similar things together. Good luck. Sounds like it could be a substantial undertaking that would save you a lot of...

    Expendables - am I atypical?

    I doubt you're the only person who manages expendables similarly. I'm a homeowner (not running a business). So your system would probably be overkill for me. If I were a business, I would be more watchful for obvious reasons. You know how often you are running out of these items. And how much...

    How would you organize things if your brain isn't capable of letting you do it?

    Aren't there people you can hire who do this for a living?

    Praise for BLO for metal finish!

    Sounds like the combination for a concoction I made to put on my wood furniture and cabinets about a year ago. Seems to work well in AZ's dry climate.
