Greetings everyone,
I was working on setting up an electronics lab, or more so, organizing everything, so that as I have it grow with parts and equipment, it'll be easily findable not only for myself, but others.
Right now, there are many cardboard boxes with labels, spools on wire on top of shelves, and about the only thing that is well done so far, is the Power Supply Station which has everything mounted and able to be moved to anywhere in the room.
I was looking for some idea / brainstorming for how best to maximize space while also keeping things uniform. I've come across the ziploc bag design for resistors, and just labeling them, as well as the standard 64x64 bins you mount to the wall. Bolts, nuts, screws, resistors, caps, transistors, MCUs, power resistors, misc. parts, you name it, I have a little bit of everything at this point. What would also be great is something that could easily be used to group up projects parts, so if I needed spare parts for on the go, everything can be organized to keep them together. Maybe I'll have to lean one way or the other, and can't have the best of both worlds on that. But it's some thoughts going through my head.
Is there any specific style of setup you'd recommend, or something else that you've come across that works wonders and might not be widely known? Lets hear it. Any links to the parts you've used and recommend are also appreciated.
Budget is flexible, nothing over the top (like motorized and count tracking bins? lol) but willing to put some money behind a worth while setup.
