I need to clean up the garage and cannot figure out what to do with all of the little stuff.
For example, I just bought a small round file to open up a hole in a computer monitor mount. It is about 1/4" in diameter and 5" long. I have a couple more files, both metal and wood. There might be some value in keeping them together - or keeping the wood files with sandpaper - or something.
It seems I have 100 small things that need put away but I would like to find them again easily.
I have pegboard most of the way around the sides of the garage, a workbench, and a couple of wire shelves.
Does anyone have a tip or something that worked well for them?
(I don't even want to think about how many times I've had something for 10 or 20 years, threw it away, and needed it within a month!)
