[Domination]

thats why i keep the majority of my small parts in another box i use the stanly for my fuel starterbox, wheels, charger,tools, transmitters, my cleaners and lubes, body clips zip ties, screws in the rotating thing.

Then all of my small washers and nuts and some other screws and small parts i keep in one of those clear square plano boxes i actually have 3 of them full ill take shome pics later om of my boxes

I just got it.

I use a plano tackle box for parts.
Also, the small containers that go inside the tackle box are used to seperate screws and small parts that differ from vehicle to vehicle.
I have one for the tmaxx, and a seperate one for the xxxnt and even another for the mini T.
At walmart.. you can get the add-on boxes (another small, clear container) for like 1.50.

wal mart has these flat boxes with the compartments in it.. like 22 compartments and there like 4 bucks... plus you can get two of them and they lock together bottom to bottom so you just flip it over to get stuff from other side.. there great for small screws and spare parts boxes ill see if i can find a linky..

I use the plastic boxes from outdoor world...they usually sell packs of 5 for 4.99.....and they are perfect size for sorting screws....

Plano 777 tackle box 35 bucks but it holds all my RC stuff w/ room to spare....Including fluids/cleaners & charger

When I started looking, I saw a post from Plaidfish about the plano 777 - as well as others - so I went and got one - It ROCKS! More room than you can imagine and all easy to organize.

I bought this fishing box from Walmart around Nov. for $20 and it works great. Has organized room for tools. Has five seperate clear plastic boxes to organize all my parts (I organize them from one just for screws-bearings-and small tiny fasteners.....then the other four boxes I seperate parts for four different R/C's) then to the side of the plastic box slots, I have room oils, fuel line, long suspension arms and even buggy or touring car tires. Best box I have ever had with adjustablity of section dividers.

here is something close to mine ,flambeau tackle box ,excellent top storage and very nice 3 tray lower storage and slots on the outside for tool. and stuff

Here's what I use ... it's a plano but can't remember the model number. Top bin holds most of the electrical stuff (power supply, charger, equalizing tray) and various foams. The 2 slide out trays hold various spare parts and tools. The removable bins hold spare parts for the nitro's (parts, screws, nuts).

The other toolbox I use holds the soldering iron, tire truer, bigger tools, pit towels, and other various items.

When I go racing outdoors, the other tool box I use is the back part of my truck or taurus stationwagon. It's full of bins with enough parts to replace any suspension parts for my NTC3, Serpent710 and various MTX-3 parts as well as 20 sets (front and rear) of foams. I can't see out the back of the car when it's packed up with the EZup, table, 96 quart cooler and chairs.

I need to get a box, I use a card board box lol ,that my sister in laws computer came in, and what a mess I can never find anything. I also have a metal tool box that stays in my room with spare parts but that thing weighs a freaking ton lol. I've seen the one Ryhton bought at Walmart that thing is awesome I think when I have some cash I might get one like that. I will have to get the ice and beer too :trashed:

That's what my 96 quart cooler is for! also doubles as a good place to sit. Funny how everything fits when the car is first packed up. At the end of the day it's a different story.

No kidding I'm usally just trying to get eveything to lay flat so I can get my taped up card board box lmao. The cooler is a really good idea I might just use mine for now lol and it will keep the beer cold too.

That is hilarious... my roommate and I use that same tackle box for fishing... I have the earlier/similar model for RC parts that is gray and blue, and of course, the toolbox for the tools... I am sure that my tacklebox will make it over to my RC stuff when i need more room for fishing stuff.

I would say that the majority of racers I race with use tackleboxes. Mostly the Plano brand. Great space and great for organizing tools and parts.
