A place for everything, and everything in it's place; this is my shed tidy mantra. And now that I'm about to get rid of a bunch of work stuff I have some more space; so I figure I'd set up a hardware cabinet for all my fasteners/bearing/electronics/assorted lengths of wire. Thus freeing up more space elsewhere for more tools and or motorsickles...
Already got a top tip from a mate, which was to get a number (200 in my case) of tiny clip together boxes for SMD electronic components.
Got 20 sets of drawer runners/handles coming, @600mm size. If I go 1m wide that gives roughly 12m2 of surface space. Am thinking a stainless top with raised edge for assembly stuff, and stainless doubles as a sweet whiteboard to label things; steel frame with MDF drawers etc. Get some perspex interlocking divider things cut to partition each drawer, which will range from 30mm high to 100mm. Probs go two undivided drawers to chuck random fasteners/electricals in and sift through easy.
Not sure if I want it on wheels, or what sort of partition sizes are good; or any other tips/tricks the kb brain trust has picked up along the way?
