Spare wires

[pcslookout]

What kind of device or method do you use to keep spare wires out of your way organized? Do you even keep them ?

I have a box I throw extra wires into. I dont usually bother with organizing them.

i use a cardboard box. but maybe i don't understand the question

I tape them to my chest then go for a stroll through the airport.

You understood the question perfectly. So you put any spare wires no matter if they are for the pc, stero system, or tv all in the same box ? Do you roll the wires together or throw them all in without rolling them ?

haha.

I use a box in the basement that occasionally gets spread all over the floor when I can't find that one piece of wire that would go perfectly in whatever I'm doing 🙂

edit: I roll and zip tie them whenever possible to make life easier 😉

For me, one box, just toss them in. I'm not sure why this is such a dilemma. Do you have so many wires that you might need to organize? If so... by all means, organize!

Yes. I don't know what I should do with them. I really don't need them but its a waste to sell them. I don't think donating them would be of any use.

Throw 'em in a box, unless you're living in your car. Nothing better than needing it and having it, saving the trip to a store to overpay for a new one.

Do you save old mouse, that may be half broken but could be used as a backup, old video cards, etc as well ?

2. sell copper
3. profit 🙂

Some of it, yes. And I just put together a machine out of parts like that for my 3-year-old.

You seem to need a fair amount of guidance in your life. Have you ever considered investing in some moon properties?

lol sorry but I do realize moon properties are not real but I wouldn't mind investing in a Space Tour! 😀

Does everything have a home with all the parts you keep because keeping so much stuff can get out of control very quickly.
