I have been looking for a compact little compartmentalized box to hold my backup RBAs and spare parts. Everything was way to large and bulky. Then I saw these boxes of assorted washers at Lowes yesterday and it was perfect ...

Washers went into a ziplock and rba paraphernalia went into box.

Now put it somewhere you can trip over it like i do and then enjoy the wife moaning when it all goes flying!

I have been coerced into a mini chest to store my things, but i really much preferred it all on my desk. I have one of those things and you make your own compartments with little plastic 'walls' - what a pain in the ....! It'd be great for emergency supplies at work though.

Yeah, I saw those "make your own compartment" boxes everywhere I looked. I nearly gave up on it till I saw these. This is for stuff I don't use presently, so small and low profile were the things that drove the decision.

Dayuuum that's a big box with alot of compartments. Kinda the opposite of mine :) I used to run a tool box back when I first started to keep all my carto filling stuff and small bottles of juice centralized and away from the kids. I I have graduated to a metal file cabinet - one drawer has my backup REO, the in-use juice refill bottle and the tool box tray to pull out with all the RBA tools l. The other holds my magnifying glass, box of rolled cotton, wire and big bag o REO bottles and tubes and my last 3 boxes of SS 1.7 cartos (ICE). I run a very lean, organized operation here. I hate clutter, now that little box replaced free rolling RBAs and baggies containing RBA parts. It fits so neatly in tbe drawer. If I don't use something often, it's gets put away where it's not in the way of what I do use.

That's the reason I love REOs, cause I need so very little stuff to vape at world championship level.

No kiddin'! It seems like almost everything 'vape' comes in one doesn't it?

And WHY can't we throw them away???? That's the big question in my mind (for me, anyway.) Why do I SAVE everything???? I still have blue foam from the really, really old days of re-stuffing carts!!! I save (and re-use) Priority Mail boxes! (And they're FREE at the post office!) I feel like a borderline hoarder with this vape stuff. I know it comes from the fact that soooo many things we have are re-purposed and you just never know what something will be useful for one of these days. Ha. But boxes and ziplock bags?? I don't know.

EDIT: I wish I were a little more like super_x_drifter....a couple of drawers in a file cabinet. Between the DIYing my own juice and now rebuilding attys, vaping has just about taken over my dining room, and I have stuff stashed everywhere.

Great box now if you can send it to me I will be happy to field test it. Please leave the atties and things inside and send a REO too. :p

Can you imagine if i had said that to a woman??

Anyway - i consider my house to be my cabinet and apart from the kitchen which i am banned from i'll leave things where i wish! :p

i bet he's not that organised at all - that was his box of things he rarely uses!

Now his wife is probably very well up on this tidy nonsense and has a sigma 6 blackbelt in it like mine - but then she travels a bit - move house and see what you take and what you leave!

Let me see if i can find my old jeans for work tomorrow - yep, here by the microwave!

she "organised' it and i cannot find even a coffee cup in there! And HRH is a chef sort of woman and has lots of knives, very sharp knives. i offered to help one day till the claret was running and then she banned me 'you can't use a knife - can find nothing - ... use are you?' 'i pay the bills..'

Well i suppose i'll make a coil or two then!

I'm a super clean freak. Always have been. My REOs and RBAs look just like they did the day I got them. Maybe that's why I never have any issues with em?

T- your somewhat right about the organization thing though, my wife is even MORE of a super clean freak than me. If I let my guard down, she'll put my stuff in places I'd never think to look for it.

She's the type that throws the kids artwork away if they leave it on the counter. I don't have the heart :)

LOL - I just had a flashback!! I too have a drawer full of blue foam that I bought at the aquarium store!My first act of "modding" stuffing my own carts. It was a big deal then getting carts and being able to put 18 drops of e liquid with blue foam instead of poly fill!!!Sitting with my fairgounds starter ecig that was like $125.00 4 years ago, vapor for life 501 stick batteries, empty plastic carts, blu cig kit with fancy PCC, old egos, ego tanks, clearomizers, cartomizers, 501 attys, 306 attys, boxes of syringes, needle tip bottles you name it! I too feel like a hoarder knowing darn well I will never use these relics again !!! :)

Wow! A trip down memory lane! Yeah, I remember using carts (18 drops instead of the stock 13) for a long, long time. Seems so long ago, but it really wasn't. Just shows you how fast this industry is moving. I don't think anyone (even newbies) uses carts anymore, do they?

Also, every step we took was just the best thing ever. I remember getting my first eGo battery and thinking I'd never need or want anything more....that it was the solution to all my problems (recharging about six 510 skinny batteries a day!!)

Now, with a REO and an RM2, I really DO think I've reached the summit. There will be new things coming out, and I will want to try them, but if I stopped buying ANY new vape equipment ever again, I'd be happy with where I am. I know I could vape this setup forever and be happy.

I had lots of pre REO stuff too. I donated it all here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/pay-forward-pif/341736-emergency-assistance-thread-usa-please-read-first-post-requirements.html

There is also the PIF thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/pay-forward-pif/85629-pay-forward-usa-please-read-1st-post-rules-guidelines.html

Some other Reonauts are active helping new vapers get started. They might welcome donations also.

Just another route to go if you don't want to post them in the classy's!
