Re: Storing / Sorting Resistors?
I use one row for multiplier - x1, x10 and so on. Then each column is for value - 1.0, 1.2, 1.8 in the first, 2.2, 2.7, 3.3 in the second - oh, you get the idea! Depending on the size of each resistor, each drawer could be subdivided if you like. I use the remaining rows for specials like fusibles, wirewounds and so on.
Capacitors - much the same idea. Much easier to see when you're running out of stock.
Amazing how few resistors I use in day to day repairs now. I actually used one today but it must be well over a week since I used one before that. Years ago I'd be using several a day and far fewer capacitors.
