How do you guys organize you spare components like resistors,caps,ic's and transistors.I never buy just one of anything,i figure if i need one now,i may need one later.Doing this i have accumulated quite a stash of components.Unfortunately my organizational skills suck.My system is a big box,all parts are in the packaging they came in, like a antistatic bag or a tube,so they are labeled at least.I picture an organizer like for screws,alot of little drawers.The problem i see there is just the 74 series ic's would require a shit load or drawers lol.Leaning towards some sort of compartments to group similar items,keep an inventory sheet with what is in each location.At least this way i can see what i have,and only have to dig through a small pile instead of this box.Just figured i would toss this out there and see if there is a better way to proceed before i make a move on it.
