    PC and Pad Storage

    Since I read a tip about storing pads in an empty 5 qt. ice cream container, I thought maybe I should post a picture of my PC storage.
    :brick But, I can`t seem to do that. :ticked

    I`ll try to put them in the gallery.

    Right to left should be:
    20" toolbox ($4 at Menards)
    With the PC and pads
    With just the PC

    Oh, fine, tease us, Charles!! :lol

    I am looking for a good way to store all my pads as they won`t fit in the drawer unit that I bought for MF`s. Since I`m only working at home, "portability" is not an issue.
    I have 6 of the 6" and 10 of the 7.5" pads.

    Any ideas? :dunno

    Thanks,

    Norah

    Thumbs up

    I usually store my pads in one gallon freezer bags. Works well for me.

    Mine are also kept in the freezer bags, but I don`t seal the bags. Hopefully, that will let them dry completely while still protecting them from dirt.

    The post I read about the 5 qt. ice cream containers also referred to first putting them in the freezer bags so at least that much seems to be pretty common.

    I bought three Sterilite containers with snap-on lids at Wal-Mart. The plastic is almost transparent so I can easily see what`s inside.

    The large container (56 qt size) is tall enough to hold tall product containers with spray attachments (Hi-Temp Grape, B&B, & 4* Wheel Gel) and all my foam applicator pads & terry pads.

    One small container (28 qt size) has most of my MF & smaller WW, the other container (same size) has all my pads.

    This makes the three containers stackable & I can put the two smaller containers with the lighter stuff in them up high to keep them out of the way.
    There`s a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".
