Those bigger ones with the removable trays look like EXACTLY what I need ... might have to grab a couple
Laverda Dave:
I used something similar to those portable type trays with the hinged lids that are great until the clips break off from use resulting in having to use elastic bands to keep them closed which is fine until the day comes when you forget to put the rubber band on and everything falls on the floor as you pick the case up (as happens on a regular basis with my 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 sockets sets not the plastic clips and hinges have all disintegrated over time).
I know keep all fasteners, electrical connectors etc in wall mounted drawer cabinets. Obviously not portable and wall fixed but very handy.
Obviously Ash has a mega amount of parts etc so he needs all those boxes!
I still have a few of the trays type that I keep woodscrews etc so I hardly open them!

Youv'e put me in a bit of a downer now Dave (joke) ..I have loads of those wall mounting drawers for my electronics stuff but these are much more portable. And I like the way they clamp to each other too.They are so good looking that Cathy even let's me take them into the house! The clamps look fairly robust for plastic and TBH it's not as if I am going to be opening them very often .. unlike say a plumber would if he kept his fittings in them. You look at all of those M8 12mm A/F and M10 14 A/F nuts and dread to think how much DS would charge you for them.

The Festool systainers (system containers) are great for storing all sorts of bits with a fantastic range and in lots of varied sizes They were the first to clip together (made by Tanos part of the same company), if any parts gets damaged, they can be replaced, lid, clips, hinge pins the lot. They also do a range of transportable systems to move them around and a storage for them (Sysports) as well as being able to make your own racking system (with the help of their shelves). Festool only has one main colour (grey, although some limited editions can be different) Tanos (not as well known in the UK has lots of different colours available one of the main stockists of Tanos UK https://www.systemcontainers.co.uk/contact-us (AKA Bunnys Bolts) I have a large range of the Festool ones that I have used for about 25 years.
