I currently have 5-6 mods, 5-6 egos, 10+ tanks, several cartos, clearos, batteries and ~20 bottles of juice. For a while I was using a tackle box to keep everything organized but i've since outgrown that.

I know there are a lot of people here with an even bigger collection than me so i'm wondering how everyone keeps their gear organized. Right now my stuff is pretty unorganized and its driving the OCD side of me crazy. How do you guys keep all your vape gear in order?

All suggestions are appreciated :vapor:

I have been considering options myself. What size bottles do you have? A tackle box seems to be the best option for a large collection. My collection is tiny, only a couple of everything. But I have woodworking as a hobby so I was considering making a box (almost like a jewelry box) to contain everything. I estimate the size and found I could fit 24 30mL bottles in bottom then have a tray over that for stuff and even make another tray on top if I though it necessary. This box would end up being between 12" and 16" tall and 10" x6" (LxW). You might want to look into those large tackle boxes that have many different trays that can be customized for your stuff. There is also those make up boxes you could look into as they are designed to put nail polish and that kind of stuff into.

I have everything between 5ml sample bottles to 50ml bottles of my favorites, though the majority are 15ml. I should have mentioned that until now i've always kept my juice bottles in an old shoe box and my gear in the tacklebox. The shoe box has done it's job so far but I felt like there had to be a better way.

A customized wooden box seems like the ideal solution. Keep us updated with how it goes and maybe post some pics when you're done!

Thank you for this! This does look like a great solution! A little more than i'm looking to spend after my holiday vape spending spree but i'll keep it in mind as it's a perfect solution

I will. The post that Dac put up with the box from Amazon is pretty much what I was looking to do only taller. I don't think stuff like that should go for the price they are selling it for, but I am also one of those cheap people that doesn't think anything is worth what people charge. I bet you could do a slight modification to your ottoman and it would be perfect. All you would need would be some small pieces of veneer to make separate sections and maybe a piece of veneer plywood the size of the inner section of the ottoman to create a shelf to separate the bottom. I can picture exactly what I would do with that ottoman, if I had enough gear to justify such a large storage unit.

My main issue was finding a way to conveniently keep my gear upright, in a stable position where it's not gonna fall or anything. And this was a little brainstorm I had after looking at a similar thread on here a while back. It's just a small cardboard shipping box, and I bored out 2 very snug holes. My Ego clones have that soft rubbery texture, so they fit even more snugly. And honestly it's great, I've never once had a mishap w/ anything falling out.

I like the looks of that box but there's no way I would charge anything inside an enclosed wood box like they have pictured. Otherwise nice setup.

I would leave the box open while charging. That's for sure. You have let the heat escape. It's more to have a place to hide the charger when not in use. The wife is complaining.
