Small Parts Bin - ammo can style

Check this out from Cheaper than Dirt.com

Only thing is the price at $20 for three trays.
Kinda high...and it does not include the ammo can.

Anyone have tried this?
I am still on the search for a great parts organizer for the space I have designated in my garage.

I have a bunch of the ammo boxes and I love them. I have one bolted to my small trailer that I keep tie downs and a few tools in and they stay completly dry. I use them in my race car trailer (larger ones) for moisture sensitive items like meters, electronics, ignitions and such, Great containers. Those would be nice to carry ammo to the range and spare parts as my gun bag has about had it.

that is pretty cool. I'm going to have to think up a use for them.
Maybe electronics kit??? hmmm

I don't shop at cheaper than dirt any longer after the whole "obama assault weapon" scare. I don't think their name means what they think it means. I order my 7.62 ammo can from various places these days (seem to be surplusing from malaysia now) they are a good size. Those trays are neat but I'm sure they are cheaper elsewhere.

I use a plastic box with dividers and lid in my amo cans. Its stored vertically inside the can, 3 could probably fit.

Ammo cans are great for keeping stuff protected and dry - especially ammo!
Can't hurt to have a few on hand.
I got most of mine by buying ammo loose, and they shipped it in the can. You then have a can after you shoot the ammo, and the shipping costs are minor compared to the weight of the ammo. It's almost like getting the can for free! (That's if you own guns and shoot, of course.)

Yep, i have ammo cans both mounted in my truck and in my house.
The one in my truck houses my on-board air system.
The ones in my house, house of course - ammo.

I was interested in the plastic dividers trays that CTD offered.
Never seen it before and wondered if anyone has them and their thoughts.

I pick up nice Ammo cans at the Flea Market for 50 cents to 5.00 depending on the size. I have prob 50 of them. Make nice containers for hurricane survival kits.
