Yeah, I sometimes dream about nicer storage solutions, but I'm actually very happy with my stack of adjustable-compartments Plano boxes in a cupboard.

Ive also got plano boxes...and a big wooden box to keep them in.

I'll add some pics of my Plano boxes.
Here's my entire collection stacked in a cupboard at the bottom of a floor-to-ceiling bookcase:


Here are the same 6 Plano boxes arrayed on the lid of the chest freezer in the laundry room in the basement as I prepare to perform the weekly rotation:


Here's a close-up of the contents of the front middle box on the freezer:

Suits me, I'll pull up a round from the firewood pile and polish a blade while I read along.

I detect a liking for things with a certain fullness.

I had not thought of using those lure boxes that way. Between my fishing rods, reels, waders, lures, vests and so on it just never crossed my mind.

 

[Carlw]

Yeah, really. How's about you stop trying to win things and start contributing to the forum for a change!!!
LOL.

This place is like my childhood neighborhood when neighbors brought a lawn chair over and sat in the front yard just "visiting".

Fast forward a few years and the damn automatic garage doors ruined everything! All you see is an SUV pull in the driveway the door goes up then down and that's the last you see of your neighbor until the next day.

Those in fact were the "good Ole days" when the men gathered to swap lies, play dominoes, and drink a beer while cooking in the yard.

I didn't notice what happened with that. Is there to be no 2022 BF knife, or is it accomplished?

They’re already working on the 2023 one, or so I’ve been told.

All I can say at this juncture is that I was tasked with doing the label and that has been accomplished...surpassing all expectations of course and achieving the Seal of Approvals approval..
