Cool Rod storage find

[simvet02]

I was wandering around the internet yesterday looking for a means to store all of the rods and found the coolest site.
www.usplastic.com (http://www.usplastic.com) go to Containers and the follow the link for dividers and lids at the top. The have dividers that will go down to 1 1/8" inch square. I just ordered their catalog to see if I could find just the right size grid for storing the rods. But they look to be perfect.

Our Home Depot and Loew's have stopped carrying the square and rectangle plastic fence post stuff that a lot of you are using so I had to go in search of something else. These rods are getting completely out of control and I'm having a hard time getting them into any order.#-o

Did you check out the tubes in clearance? they are 48" long for $2.05 and just have to be cut (I use a band saw) to the length you wang (1" works for me!) they have 22 left!!!

Interesting, didn't see that. I think I will do an online chat with them about the other ones though. I can get some of the tubing when I get the others. I use the tubing for the boro. Have to keep them separate you know....LOL

USPlastics is a great company! I purchase both plastic jars and metal tins from them for frit. Oh, great for ziplock bags too.

Depends on what your looking for. The containers are under containers and then click the dividers and lids link.

I'm going to wait for the catalogue and maybe even call them so I can get exactly what I need.

The tubes that are on sale are under the sale category I believe.

I'm hoping that I can get my handy husband and sons to build me some glass storage. I want them to make me a shelf unit that has 4"x4" squares 12" deep that slope to the back slightly. I may be dead before that happens...In the meantime, I have my rods in jars like flower boquets. I use those jars that salsa, pasta sauce, etc. come in that I don't want to use for canning or anything else. At first, I just stuck all of the same color rods in one jar, now I separate them out and put each number in its own separate jar--imagine ten shades of purple in one jar and trying to remember which is which.

Okay, color me stupid, but could you post a more direct link?
I can't find what you're talking about :sad:.

It took me a while too, Karen. It's all under 'Totes and Containers'. I'm guessing this link is what we're supposed to be looking into...?
