[sdiy] organizing your parts

[Brett Maddaford]

I use these big plastic breifcase type cases for holding parts with a
plastic top that opens right up....kind of like a single layer small
tackle box but about 6 times bigger with bigger and deeper compartments
with movable partitions so you can make each section bigger or smaller.
The are alot more heavyduty and have a carry handle for lugging them
around. i've got 5 full now but they stack nicely and are easy to find
parts in ;)
 
they are like this :

Sorry the link is so long but thats the closest i could find to what im
talking about.....and no i didnt pay $100+ for these i found equivelant
at local $2 junky stores or big hardware stores for about 10-15 bucks
 
hope it helps

	How do you guys organize your parts? 
	
	I have some of the little "tackle box" type containers with
little plastic seperators, but I'm realizing I have way too much stuff
and its getting to the point where I need to come up with a system for
those boxes. On top of that I found a HUGE tote full of parts I ordered
years ago and never opened. Anyone need any ca3046s? (found a tube of
those I didn't realize I even owned, among many other things...
including more ssm2044s - if anyone is looking for one or two) 
	
	I figure I'll have to take a trip to Home Depot or something,
but wondered if anyone can recommend something? I don't really have a
workshop anymore either, so I'm not really able to build parts holders
on a workbench or anything. On top of that, I live in Arizona, so I
neeed to get these parts all packed up in some sort of thing and brought
in from the garage before the evil heat arrives. (which is probably only
1-2 months away) 
	
	I feel like a moron for asking, but you folks always have clever
answers.
