What- How Big is Your parts Box??

I have three, one each for planes, cars, and ships.  Each is a box 11 by 4 by 4, as part of a shelf unit with 24 such "boxes" (open top that slide into niche in main unit)  Other drawers are for supplies (plastic, wood, metal, gears, motors, etc).

I have a 9x11x18 tackle box that opens up with 5 large segmented drawers and the open bottom 1/2 of the box for small parts from planes, ships and armor. Weighs a ton, need two hands to lift.

For car parts it's a 6x12x10 metal cabinet with 25 clear drawers. Sorted engines, headers, front axles, rears, headlights, tail lights etc.

For car bodies, fuselages and other larger parts it's a printer paper box.

Plus a few assorted clear plastic food containers with odd sized parts.

After 75-1/2 years of building all types of models, spare parts seem to pile up. I did do a little sorting and thinning before we moved here about 5 years ago. Scattered quite a bit of stuff to the members of the club but lots left.

Stay Safe.

Yes,it's just one box,mostly tracks,tools,decals,missles and such.

Just like I don't need to have hundreds of kits in the stash that will never be built,I don't need to hoard dozens of boxes of parts I won't use,I barely use anything from this one.sometimes I'm happy to provide a piece to a fellow modeler who mentions on a forum that he needs something
