Tell me how you organise your parts bins?
do you keep wheels and tires taped together to avoid mix up? or to you just through it all together?
Tell me your learned lessons.

Re: Tell me how you organise your parts bins?
I just keep stuff in egg cartons. Works for me. Some of the bigger stuff, I just keep in the original box of the car.

Hmm i use old fishing boxes. Check the pics. One side is for spare or un-used parts the other for wheels and tires. A other box is used for the non-used decals.

All my parts are just thrown into two drawers, and some are in old model boxes.
Half of the model boxes are spare parts the other half is projects. I also got six model boxes full with parts at my workbench. |

I put all of my engine goods together, tires/rims go into assorted containers, then everything else is put into either model boxes or a plastic container. For my old & damaged builds (that are good for parts if I need them), they go into kit boxes or some just remain on my shelf.

I use a bunch of coffee cans. Everything is separated, Engine, interior, suspension, etc. Plus every can is painted different, so they make a nice display too
