I just throw them in coffee cans. Yea, I have to look through a lot of cans
when I need something but it is rare that I need to and I don't have to take
up a lot of space that is required to sort them out properly.


I keep all my extra screws, bolts, nuts, and fasteners all mixed up in a
large 4 pound cookie tin. About every hundred years, I sort them into
separate containers. The hundred years is not up yet.

I'm sure some of you have some really creative ways to store all your nuts
and bolts. So what do you use for workshop storage?


A paint roller tray. Makes sorting though all the misc stuff easy.
