Looking for component storage drawers from Tech America, or similar


John Johnson
 

I bought these component organizers at a RadioShack.com store that was going out of business. They were sold by another division of Tandy called Tech America. Tech America also went out of business. Their website is gone too. RadioShack doesn't have any, and can't get any. Does anyone know where I might find more of these, or similar organizers. I've Googled until I'm blue in the face, but haven't found anything.



Thanks in Advance!

Regards,
JJ

;-) that seems to happen all around the world...
I hate the chaos of different storage systems i have and i hate myself for never
buying enough of one kind....

I know where you can get similar drawers in germany but that doesn't help i guess.

is that really such a tight fit with that car of yours?

If you're referring to the picture on the right, those kinds of parts bins
are often seen in both hardware stores and home centers, holding all sorts
of stuff. Odds are that those places end up getting them from whoever is
supplying them with the assortment of parts stocked in them, so you'll
probably have to pursue it that way, unless you're lucky enough to find a
hardware store that's going out of business too. But this should at least
give you a place to start looking. Auto parts stores sometimes use something
similar for things like light bulbs, come to think of it.

Long time ago I worked for a company that carries some very cheap soft
poly plastic lidded cassette tape cases. I put parts in them and put
them in cassette wall mount racks.

Like this:


A pair of flush cutters will snip the posts off if needed. I write on
the edges of the boxes with a grease pen.
