I bought three of these to organize pieces for my board games and I'm very impressed--makes Agricola much more manageable!

I am extremely pleased with my purchase of Flambeau Outdoors 4006 Tuff Tainer boxes!

I have used the boxes to help created a storage system for my workshop. I have tried several ready-made systems that either proved to be too awkward or much too expensive. I built a 3ft x 4ft frame and added adjustable shelves. I fit six of these boxes on each shelf, with the small hanging tab towards the front. I used my P-Touch labeler with 12mm tape for each one. Now, across the front I can immediately find the hex and carriage bolts (¼", 5/8", ¾" for each box), lock washers, etc. On the tops of each box, I have labeled each section with the lengths or sizes (3", 2 ½", etc.). Now when I need a bolt for a task, I simply get the appropriate box. Then, no matter what length of bolt I may need, I already have the correct size with me.

The price through Amazon for each box was less than the cost at a military exchange. An added bonus is the use of the rust-inhibiting dividers. When I have filled these boxes, I will most certainly purchase more in the future. I could not be happier!

I have a stack of these boxes for miscellaneous bolts, screws, washers, and the like. This is the perfect size because when fully loaded with small items, it's not too heavy to hold in one hand while climbing a ladder or when you have to grab the box quickly on-the-go. I have several brands but the Flambeau brand is the best so far - I like the way the latches snap shut easier with less force, but same closing grip, compared with the others.
