    I made a nice holder for small screwdrivers and bits, and I can easily move them from desk to desk.

    The great thing about the Really Useful Boxes is that they are ! I've been using them (mainly 18L, but other sizes too ) for (at least) 23 years. The pictures show only about 1/3 of them (and that…

    since my room is only 6x9 utilizing the space with as much working space as well as storage space was interesting this is what I came up with that seems to work quite well for me know.

    so on the left we have diagnostics area then to the right we have the take apart/ repair area then 3d printing/laser toys in the corner then on the shelves we have all the parts and odds and ends and random tools one would need to do most things then I have 2 rolling carts great IKEA find slides right under the one desk.  lots of extra light and options for viewing things cause I am old and now I need those things lol,

    Sure it gets a bit cramped at times but its easy to get setup for everything in here once you get the hang of it.  so ya seems we all like the clear smaller storage bins and I still enjoy good ol parts organizers as well. and I have a few kits up in the top right corner in some of these awesome multicomp pro cases I use for RF/radio stuff and prototyping  good prices on them too highly recommended allows me to store a bunch of breadboard projects safely without having to dismantle right away as well. 

    Ya finding the right recipe for your space is fun not much space needed just a few cheap amazon storage shelves an few random desks and lots of light and away you go.
