Title: NSD! (New Storage Day)
Post by: dan.schumaker on February 19, 2018, 02:43:23 PM
So after lots and lots and lots of gentle persuasion from Mrs. Schu-Tone, she convinced me that my storage system of "bags of random parts strewn around everywhere" wasn't the most efficient way to store and organize everything.  So I drew up a little storage system and built it up over the weekend.  The divided storage will have resistors, capacitors, diodes and transistors.  The bins will hold pots, electro's, knobs, IC's and whatever else.  We will see if this will work any better than the bags of random parts I used before, but in any case, the wife is happy.

And here is my Schu-Tone intern helping me sort knobs by color and shape.  I got cheap labor, and he learned something.  Win/Win  :)

I won't show this post to my wife or she'll get some crazy ideas.

I thought you're son is a good employee who loves tighten the pots, isn't that right?

I dunno, I'm thinking your helper might be a little disgruntled and looking to unionize.  Has he referred to you as Mike Matthews lately??

Also, I swear that if it weren't for wives we'd all still be living in caves and hitting each other with rocks.  Although I DID have a full head of hair when I got married...
