On most occasions when people first start to build their tool or storage shop,
whether it be at home, in your outside shed, or garage, it is often that you
have the best intentions in mind - almost like having your man cave to say the
least.
You
always envision that your tools' space will stay clean all of the
time and finding your tools and anything else you need should be a breeze. You
say to yourself I’m going to organize the lifestyle out of your new space and
keep it well organized, functional and effectual.
Then
that cloud above your head will suddenly burst with all the tools hitting you
back into reality because there are a huge number of tool sheds, shops, or even
garages that when you walk into, there are a flurry of tools on the tables,
tossed on floors, and containers filled with nuts and bolts of all sizes. When
you need a bolt for a repair, you end up spending hours looking for that one
bolt or nut that is the right size for the job.
It
is said that time is money, and keeping things organized in your garage, shed,
or shop will certainly make life so much easier. Jobs are done faster, and you
spend less money buying parts you don’t need because you already have them in
one of those jars that you have on a table somewhere.
Well, today we will give you 5 tips on some of the best ways to store and organize
your nuts and bolts.

a Funnel

screws, and small tools that you can carry around with as you move throughout

will last you for years to come!
3. Organizer
