i use a shoes box to hold my work tools (temporarily, when i find a better place…) and extra pieces (actually an mg42, some AT traps, some figures and other rubbish) in a plastic container
For my spare parts, I keep them in zip lock baggies, model boxes, an old suitcase (my version of the “bone yard”, and a couple of regular boxes. I’m need to organize my stuff better. We recently moved so I have no real excuse now as I set up my building area.
Spare parts? There are supposed to be parts left over?[;)]
It is quite rare. There are those who suppurt our hobby and then there’s those who tolerate it. My g.f. was a supporter & even dabbled into my world[8D]
She bought me one of those grey thingys with clear plastic drawers for my tools & such
[#ditto] I have 2. One for keeping tools, empty paint bottles, clothes pins, etc… Another smaller one that I keep spares in. I haven’t really been keeping much in the way of spares, just wheels and tires from some of my car models, and a few missles from aircraft. I know from experiance I will probably never use most of them, so I don’t keep to much around. They are also pretty nice for keeping PE and detail parts in to.
