CUSTOMIZING TOOLS & STUFF

EconoCarl Wednesday, 1/2/2013

I went to Walmart to look for a small storage case to sort out some of the wheels I've accumulated. I ended up in the craft section and found these:
Diecast Cars, Hot Wheels, Matchbox
I plan to use the smaller one for wheels and the larger one for unassembled projects.

Looking around in the same section I found these:
Diecast Cars, Hot Wheels, Matchbox
Six tools that will definately get used along with a carrying case.

All of this was $20 + tax.

Hey Carl....try in the fishing tackle. The artificial bait boxes are almost exactly the same as the ones in the craft section and cost a little less.

Baby food jars do wonders for small parts. Definitely an unforeseen perk of a baby
