I used to, but a few weeks ago I needed a bucket in which to empty the fuel from a 4 stroke engine. So now I have an Amazon box full of bolts.

I have screws and bolts all over the place, some in boxes, cans etc. Barely no organization. I really should organize those one of these days. Same with cables and adapters, they're all shoved in a big container and when I need a cable I just dig in it till I find what I need lol.

No, but I have more than a few screws loose. :D

Actually, I do have a Whitman's tin full of screws, nuts, etc from computer cases and other hardware. Whenever I get extra screws from new hardware (usually comes in those small plastic pouches) or if I need some, that's where it goes/comes from. I should call it my Rubycon tin, in honor of this thread. :p

Have one drawer in my Kennedy chest dedicated to various machine screw sizes, keenserts, nuts, EZ Outs and odds and ends.

Is handy in a shop.

Have a couple jars of other of random screws around.

I remember going to a FIRST event once and the screws had been sorted into a multi cavity container, and one of the kids dropped it in the pit :p

The thing was never the same again that weekend :)
