We use a big Caboodle to hold all of our stuff in (do they make these anymore? Mine is from when I was a kid)
With all the dividers and "drawers", it holds everything nicely in one place, and makes it 100% portable.
As it is right now I have everything in a priority box and do the mixing in my garage. I gues I need to upgrade. Lol
Just an old dresser to store everything, and a toolbox for travel. I work on the floor or at a table.
I just got a small plastic toolbox from Walmart.. I have a lot more flavors coming in the mail so I just hope it's big enough! I put smaller boxes inside the tool box as dividers which works out nicely.
Yeah Im out growing my box.Need to invest in large tackle box or something similar
Yeah I was gonna get a tacklebox, I just don't want to keep my flavor bottles on their side, the sections aren't tall enough.. It's probably not a huge deal but it's just a peeve of mine.
I just have a big old cardboard box- I pull out what I need and work at the table. I want a cool box for everything, some stuff just wont be able to fit like the liters of PG and VG
Yeah I keep the pg/vg and nic seperate so not a problem for me.I also recommend after cleaning syringes to keep them in plastic bag or other container.I made juice late one night and forgot to clean a syringe and it wore off labels on couple bottles of flavoring and the ml indicators on the syringes
In a little plastic bin that looks like a laundry basket. As I get more I'll transfer to a double toolbox that's plastic. Has a fold out handle on top and wheels on the bottom. I got it from home depot for about 35.00 when I was taking cake decorating classes.
I use my desk for mixing with a separate shelf above it for supplies. The flavors are in plinths, pre-finished wood blocks that I drilled holes in, for flavor bottles. The syringes all sit in a coffee mug. A tip for syringes, when you get them put some clear tape over the graduations and they'll last forever. The PG, VG and nicotine are all in the frig until needed, with back-up of them in inventory in the freezer.
Even with trying to be organized, my DIY efforts and rebuilding efforts seem to have taken over my desk!

I keep all my supplies in a cooler in the basement. I have small plastic baskets for the flavors. I do my mixing at the kitchen sink on a plastic dish drainer. I like to be able to keep everything in one place, and it all fits in the cooler.
Does anyone else categorize groups of flavors? I'm trying to think of the proper categories (tobacco, nuts, sweet, secondary liquids [Like AP], etc) so that I can group all my flavors for easy access.
I group by brand .I mainly use TFA for fruits and capella for bakery/sweet stuff so that works best for me .
I group flavors by use. The ones I use most often are in the front line with secondary flavors filling in the rest. There are eighteen flavors in each plinth. I have two that are full and a third that is almost full. Guess I'll be buying and drilling a few more, just to be safe.
