Large Compartmented Storage Boxes

[Des]

Hopefully the right area within Tools & Tips.

 

For a long while I have been using compartmented storage boxes for keeping spares in although especially with my almost wholesale move into 1/48 scale the sometimes multiple or larger unused parts take up several compartments and sometimes partitions have to be cut out.

 

I was in Home Bargains earlier today when my wife pointed out (and later bought) Christmas Tree Bauble Storage Boxes for £7.99 each that she thought might be handier for me to keep forementioned multiple or larger spares in.

 

Each of the 24 compartments in a box is an approx 3.5 inch/9 centimetre cube.

 

In my local store they were beside the bulkier Christmas decorative items and I would suspect that they are a seasonal WIGIG items which might not be restocked.

Good find. 

 

Your photo also reminds me that I have this growing pile of unassembled stores. Perhaps I should sit myself down and finish them off so they're ready to load.

I bought a similar box from the range. The dividers are removeable so you can adjust the compartment lengths etc. I think i paid about $3.99.
