[Shop-talk] Organizing nails and screws

[Donald H Locker]

I use plastic peanut butter jars (I think they are JIf, clear ones with red lids.)  Stored down-side up, it's easy to see what (approximately) is in them, and they pack easily and are tough.  And many peanut butter brands come in that size, so even store brand jars work.

HTH,
Donald.

I use Taster's Choice instant coffee containers. Depending on the size,
they'll hold 2 or 3 pounds of fasteners. With the labels peeled off they're
transparent enough to ID the contents.  If you don't like instant coffee,
Akro-Mils style hanging bins come in many sizes and colors.
