Storing Small Parts and Hardware - Plastic Jars or Parts Bins

[rob love]

The bins have their purpose..I like them for nuts and bolts. But for smaller parts they take up a lot of room, let the stuff get dusty, and wall space in a shop is always at a premium. For small parts like machine screws or electrical connectors, I like the small parts drawers as shown below. For larger parts, I have taken to using barrack boxes with a piece of tape indicating what type of vehicle the parts are for.
