How Do You Organize Your RC Tools & Bags & Storage?

Screws, Bolts, Washers & Nuts.

Allow's face it, our pastime makes use of a crap-load of screws & bolts from small to big. It's
fairly very easy to suddenly have a container of diverse screws & things that you have no
concept what's really in it! And then when you do need a specific bolt, you need to scrounge
around attempting each that looks near the appropriate size. The containers and also array
sets from places like RTL Fasteners are a fantastic starting point, yet I found something even
better ...

I adhere to Adam Savage & the Tested Youtube network and also saw in among his video
clips a portable parts organization container system called Sortimo he went crazy around.
After investigating them, I located the Stanley Professional Organizers were nearly the same
and also simpler ( and also less costly) to get ahold of. Each yellow divider panel container is
detachable if I need to use a lot of a couple of things at the workbench and can be arranged
inside in almost any type of style.

As soon as I obtained the coordinators, I made a big order to RTL Fastners and also grabbed
a bag of basically every size bolt, washing machine, lock washing machine, nut and also lock
nut that I would need for a very long time! I'm currently utilizing one Stanley coordinator for
Metric hardware, one for SAE, one for misc fuel dots/filters/clunks, as well as one for servo
arms & misc power adapters. For the screws & equipment, I swiped all of the little containers
from the other instances, yet didn't have sufficient. THINGIVERSE TO THE RESCUE! I
located a set of objects a person made to fit these coordinators that were even partitioned!
These worked completely for the washers & lock washing machines that do not take much
space. Labels on the deal with help me promptly grab the container I need - whether it be
Metric or SAE hardware, or another thing - and labels on the individual divider bins let me
recognize what size screw I'm considering.

Props & Misc Hanging Packages.

A pair dozen trips to the hobby shop as well as you'll make sure to have a bunch of tiny
packages of assorted DUB-BRO, Great Planes, etc things, not to mention a big array of
props. A great piece of pegboard & incorporate your shop can assist maintain these
organized and also off the beaten track up until you need them. And also, a hole strike swiftly
makes anything hang-able. I maintain my props arranged by length for simple finding. I
likewise maintain every one of my extra servo extensions elastic band together and also
hung on a fix, which makes it very easy to see how many I have of which size.

Adhesives, Sandpaper, Clamps & More.

I discovered these small metal drawer systems regarding 5 years back at IKEA when I finally
chose I require some type of organization for my variety of tools, glues, paints, and so on.
They're only about $15 a piece, do not take a great deal of area, and the cabinet deepness
functions quite well for most things. The only issue I've encountered is with the taller epoxy
containers. I have drawers dedicated to adhesives & epoxies, sandpaper as well as sanding
devices, soldering things, covering irons & tools, one for clamps, one for misc small tools,
one for ... you get the idea.

Every-Day Tools.

Easy access tool organizers are a need to have for us. I located this plastic coordinator at a
swap some years back that has actually functioned well. It does not hold everything I need,
but the majority of it! Scissors, knives, screwdrivers, allen drivers and pliers are all quickly
obtainable. I've also just recently put up a magnetic bar on the wall surface above it to hold
several of the more arbitrary points out of the way. If you're looking for one, I saw that Laines
Planes has some nice ones to select from!
