Parts Storage Cabinet???

I am looking for a parts storage cabinet with dividable plastic drawers. All the ones I have seen at Lowes/Home Depot have drawers that can only be divided in half. I am looking for ones that can be dividable in more sections than that. This is the kind of thing I am looking for.
Anybody know where I can find such a beast? Does not need to be new, just needs to have multi dividable bins and have LOTS of dividers (or have dividers available in a store somewhere).

:lmao: That is the kind of thing he seeks, not the exact thing.

I think duct tape is the remedy. Not sure how, but the answer is there...

Maybe you could make one from leftover Baby food jars...

Try one of the craft stores (Michaels, etc.) and look at their assortment. If that doesn't work, the Container store (online or near Tysons) may have what you're looking for.

huntr, let me check my woodworking magazines. They always have these things in them. If I find something I'll let you know.
 
Spud,
They sell the exact same item at Home Depot and Lowes. I found the picture at Home Depot's website. Paraphrasing of what HVP said, "reading comprehension is your friend".

Vince,
Thanks! Dur, I didn't even think of checking my woodworking mags. Gonna have to do that.

Lugnut,
THANKS! I will check the one in Mechanicsville next time I can get there before they close.

I checked Harbor Freight. The ones they sell do not have enough dividers, nor do they sell extra dividers on their website.

We checked the junk tool store at the market.

We checked WalMart (tool section only though).

OK, I'm obviously outnumbered and I am the only one that seems to be missing something, so I'll concede to being a dumba$$ on this one. At first when I seen these responses, I was going to blame it on being tired last night.... but... after re-reading, I'm still CORNfused. :blushing: :roflmao:

You said the only ones you could find had drawers that only be divided in half.... the one you linked had millions of drawers (which is what you want.....right?). So.... after seeing that the link was from Home Depot, I put 2 and 2 together and threw out the "hey, try Home Depot thing and the little confusy thing" and was trying to be funny. Somehow things went way wrong and I apologize for turning your thread into a train wreck :banghead:

Maybe I'll go muck up Jazz's 401K thread some more :razz:

Yes it has 39 drawers (gotta love that Missouri math you've got working). Yes they can be divided in half. Still not what I am looking for. I am looking for one that has drawers that can be divided into 3 or MORE sections.

It's not so much that it's "Missouri" math, just the fact that I haven't done math since 1989

So, anyway... other than tool-bin drawer issues, how have ya been stranger? :cheers:
