I'm sure almost all of us have collections of loose stainless screws, washers and nuts. Right now I keep them sorted in 4 plastic peanut butter jars (machine screws, sheet metal screws, nuts & washers) in a bucket. Works ok, but whenever I need something from the bucket, I end up pouring out the jar and sorting through the pile looking for the size, length, etc. I need. I make a note of what needs replacing and restock later on.
Works okay, but I spend too much time pawing through the jars. I see these tackle bags that hold Plano plastic boxes (w/dividers) and I know the Plano boxes would work great for sorting screws, etc.
But I'm not sure a tackle bag is sturdy enough to hold a big mess of stainless and it would really, really suck if the bag broke and hardware went everywhere.
Wondering if anyone on TF has a good suggestion?
