How do you store/organise SMD components? (or small components in general)

Nice, but I think the compartments are too big for 0603 and similar parts. An advantage of the small vial/test tube types is that you can get the thing right up to point of use before opening it, so you're basically tipping out a tiny part, or several of them, a few mm away from where it goes rather than a many inches.

'Course, depends on one's preferred workflow :)

It's only about 9 inches by 6 inches. My thought is that it can sit on the workbench next to me and I'll tweezer individual components out of the box, place all I need to, then move on to the next component.

It will be here tomorrow and with Prime, if I don't like it, returns are very easy. I think I will like it though.

The possible solutions change. If we never asked stuff that had already been asked we'd be stuck in the stone age idea-wise.

Well, still on Yahoo anyway.
