For the win . . .
Goodwill industries: 
walk in, and try and find the aluminum turkey tray, or buffet dish. Sometimes you can get stainless steel food service tray. Great for home/garage sorting, doubles as coolant catcher. Depending on the type the lid works on it's own. "I put the hurt on dirt" - adam crane http://CraneRallyCrew.com corolla gt-s "Patches" Op: S.S. |

I steal everything from the fancy fastenal style bolt bins @ work
We built our collection at auctions over the years for pennies on the dollar. Bigger plant auctions are the ticket for this sort of thing if you can show up late or hang around til the very end of an auction when they typically sell the tool room / maintenance area. We have two big 5' high rows of blue bolt bins. We don't have enough metric stuff 
if i was buying something for home? probably do something like this. these are sweet and you can move em around easy. http://www.harborfreight.com/mobile-double-sided-floor-rack-95551.html Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 06/09/2013 10:05PM by dirty_d. |

Ding ding ding! ALL the hundreds of Alkro bin boxes in lots of sizes and thousands of flod up cardbord bin boxes, AND the miles of 6 foot plus shelf racking were all gotten from Boeing surplus--and that was a carefully jam pack van load of shelving gotten a hour or two before their closing down for Christmas holiday for cheep. Good tip Brandon whatever your real name is (you naughty boy put your damn name up. I know its Ballos but how are other peoples gonna know?) And (ever get your stuff mounted up?)
