totes for fittings?

while cruising a home depot to see if they had any bucket trays, I came across this one, into which I've now moved all my 1/2" & 3/4" copper fittings. I like it.

any good divided tote boxes
that you use for copper and pex fittings?
my boxes, made for fishing tackle, are nearing the end of their life cycles and were never quite as stout as I liked anyway.
for what it's worth, for PVC fittings, I recently switched over from a motley assortment of cardboard boxes to these totes that Menards (big box building supplies in my area) sells and they are great! stout and stack very solidly; highly recommended; and they make a larger size that I would probably have bought if I had run into them.

They have dozens of types and styles that nest or stack plus about any size you'd need.0 -
I use drawstring parachute bags in five gallon buckets. I have buckets for 3/4, 1/2, hardware, electrical, gas pipe, etc. I don't need large amounts of fittings for servicework generally.

I'm a big fan
of Stanley products. I use plastic organizers for electric fittings, straps, and copper fittings. I also use a Stanley plastic tool chest with wheels for my propress and jaws. Getting older. Working smarter. WW

Buckets, baby
5 gallon, various colors with various sizes of divider bins. I've built my truck to carry 8 buckets.
They double nicely as a seat. Also good for purging and blending glycols or inhibitors.
