I&#8217;ve tried using a variety of translucent plastic boxes to contain and organize these parts, but they&#8217;ve been flawed in a number of ways: the parts are difficult to pick out with your fingers; the small pieces migrate from compartment to compartment; and finally, the latches break.<\/p>\n<form mt:asset-id=\"6470\" class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\" style=\"display: inline;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"akromils-storage2sm.jpg\" src=\"\/wp-content\/archiveimages\/akromils-storage2sm.jpg\" width=\"330\" height=\"168\" class=\"mt-image-none\" style=\"\" \/><\/form>\n<p>I think Akro-Mils has solved all of these problems with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B000CCT0YI\/cooltools-20\/\">their cases<\/a> ($11+). The latches span the entire front side of the organizer, work well, and don&#8217;t seem to break. The bottom of each compartment is curved on at least two sides to allow picking up those 0-80 screws, and the top has ridges that surround each divider to make it much less likely for the parts to jump out of their compartments. The two Akro-Mils organizers I have been using are the small (05-705) and the large (05-905). There&#8217;s a medium available, too. I think I paid $4 and $7, respectively, which is about the same price as products with none of these features or durability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Curved-bottom organizer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[19],"tags":[1350,702],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3847"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3847"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3847\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32413,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3847\/revisions\/32413"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3847"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3847"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3847"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
