Storage

It's important to organize your TestEquipment.

Cleanliness is godliness.

You don't know what you have until you organize it.

Selected Examples of Storage

• 

  Using a server rack for equipment. Some mounting parts are 3D printed. Note that this shows 2 server racks side by side.

• 

  Using paper envelopes for component storage.

Tips/Techniques

Server Rack Storage

It should be possible to make PCBs as mounting plates for server racks, relatively cheap, thanks to services such as JLCPCB. Alternatively, you might be able to make something out of sheet steel. In the Selected gallery above, an example there uses 3D Printed plates. Another option. When working with server racks, you can get racks of any height, but for starters, you may want to purchase something that is built for a small cabinet (i.e. about 2 feet in vertical height) as opposed to buying floor to ceiling racks. You can also of course use a band saw to cut down a floor to ceiling rack to size. Finally, there are also single rack options. Look at ebay.

Misc

Refer to Adam Savage's (of Mythbusters notoriety) "Every Tool is a Hammer" for worthwhile hints on storage of various workshop item. Although not necessarily electronics related.
