So I've been looking for an efficient way to store lots of electronic components in my home lab...

My sister is into crafting and happened to have a magazine on beading around (making jewelry and other things from beads) and I happened to see an ad for storage boxes that contain lots of little storage boxes. It is meant for beads, but I thought that they would be good for storage of small parts. The problem is that, I assume, they are not ESD safe. So it would only be for things like resistors, caps, etc.

And they are very inexpensive compared to other similar storage boxes I've seen.

Anyone know of similar storage boxes that are ESD safe?


Coin envelopes.

John

Standard coin envelopes are *not* specified as being anti-static.
And envelopes are rather inconvenient for storage of a fair number of parts, and leave labelling and sorting a bit messy for easy readability and access.
Worst case comes to worst, one could use standard plastic drawer sets and line every drawer/bin with aluminum foil.
