    So...I've been using a bunch of small parts organizers for my stuff. The little closable ones from Stanley. At first they worked well, but I'm pretty much at the point that I'm needing something a little better.
    I've got so many fasteners, bulbs, switches, you name it...I'm at a half dozen of these things and still need room. And the little dividers just don't work well in these things to keep screws separated.

    I need something bigger and better. Any suggestions on something I can buy?
    Yes, buy. I don't want to make anything because anything I try to fabricate is automatically broken before I even start.

    So not necessarily for tools. Fasteners, bulbs, small electronic parts, star posts, all of that "usual" stuff.

    I have some "Tilt Bins" mounted to the wall. they are modular/stackable and clear, separate the parts in clear bags and you can see pretty well without opening what is in each bin. The only thing I have separated are Molex connectors and fuses in the divider type units. For screws the molded compartment type with rounded bottoms work OK, you are limited but at the same time no dividers to move causing a mess.100_7591.jpg100_7591.jpg

    Storage, a constant work in progress with no perfect solution for every item.
    Rounded bottom for easy item removal.

    tilt bins which are a decent catch all for bulkier items.
