Being organized is the key to having more time in your woodworking shop and more money for tools, and Steve has stumbled onto an innovative new way to organize all those pesky screws, nuts, bolts, nails, washers and other "stuff." Out with the coffee cans and cheap plastic trays and in with the new Quantum Tip Out Bins!

Tip: For commonly removed bins (usually ones with screws/nails) neatly hot glue a magnet into the bottom. This way, if you have the bin sitting on your bench and you send the bin flying while carelessly swinging a chunk of wood around, your scattered mess is somewhat contained. And since it’s hot glued, it can be removed fairly easily if you ever want to repurpose the bin /magnet or if you don’t care for it.

These look great, but WAAAAAY too expensive. They must have 14k gold screws that come with them. Great looking shop though. Looks well planned out.

@SladeMcCuiston 11 лет назад

Oddly enough, I moved away from all these expensive bins to the type of bins you were complaining about at the beginning... I must be missing something.

@texak1974 9 лет назад

Great video. I watched your video two days ago and bought 5 of the 9 bin and 3 of the 6 bin off of Ebay that night. I installed them today. Took all of about 15 minutes to get a perfectly level install. The quality is top notch. I have tan walls so I ordered the ivory color. Without your video I would have never found them probably. Please search Ebay for them because it was much cheaper than anywhere else I could fine. The seller was Zoro. I got free shipping on purchase over $50 so keep that in mind too. I will never buy that cheap plastic crap ever again. A little pricey starting out, but you can tell they are built to last. And the plastic bins are crystal clear. Plus there is several different ways to mount them, including 16 inch centers, which is what I used.

@Somethingkindawitty 10 лет назад

For about the same money I was able to buy a card catalog with 144 drawers at a local library sale. You can still find card catalogs and index card cabinets for less than your wall there. I have mine on casters so I can roll it to where I need it or I have it filled with plastic trading card boxes. I have a lot more storage than you for about the same money but instead of plastic I have dovetailed oak drawers with incredibly smooth pulls. I would not trade it for anything at this point.

@tonyemory3618 8 лет назад

What a waste of money. Sure they are nice bins but lets face it for that money they should be made of metal and not plastic which is hard and brittle and they do break when you drop the little compartments. I worked for a company years ago wasted thousands of dollars on these bins and most all of the drawers are cracked from being dropped by various workers. Granted when buying for yourself you take better care of things but accidents happen and everyone who has a shop knows who MURPHY is.

@kringles65 7 лет назад

BS commercial for a product. As for the hardware box on 13 inch centers or what ever it was...mount a board on the wall and attach to the board.

@Theta2Omega 7 месяцев назад

Nice. Wish I could afford it. A little pricey but there aren't many good cheaper alternatives. They split manufacturing between USA and Canada so we know the quality is good. The tip-outs are made in Canada.

@michaelmcgarry2657 7 лет назад

little dramatic?

@kittyhawk7060 3 года назад

Those are really nice, but they are too pricey for someone in their upper 70's. I'll stick with my plastic peanut jars. Thanks for the review, however. Nice shop from what I can see.

A quantum leap is the smallest distance anything can move, by the way :)

@SMFBisme 3 года назад

Isn't that a quantum jump, actually? Changing energy levels or some such? A quantum leap is either that TV show or a large/drastic/sudden change or development (the latter being more common, in my experience anyway)

@Peteworth 8 лет назад

I bought these for a steal, a set of 3 rows on clearance at Menards for $15. Yes they do feel brittle ( had to superglue the side nibs for 4 of them), I would not pay more for the quality of plastic but they are sure the best way of organizing fasteners I have used.

@downtoearthwoodworks 11 лет назад

Thanks for watching. I visited four of my woodworking buddies a couple of weeks ago to get some advice on a tricky joinery issue... I got four different answers. And I think any one of their answers will work! Woodworking is like that. We all find what works best for us. I'm just glad that what you are using is working for you. That's what really matters.

1:52 * if you ever decide to get some more,… They’re never going to match because the store found some new source” Ouch, that hurt because I’ve been there. You are completely correct. Nice job on the video.

@cockleman1 5 лет назад

Holy moly! Looked on eBay for them and having been in the injection moulding game for a number of years and they are waaaaaaaay beyond any reasonable price so I will make my own except they will be wood with a Perspex front . It’s a balance between price and time and time wins this one by a million miles/kms,cheers

@MrSmokinMirrors 4 года назад

can you put the plans up on RU-vid for us mere mortals please.

@chuckiep268 10 лет назад

Yeah I just found that out too. I've been driving all over to by them up. I'll keep a eye out online and if I run across more I'll post a link.

@danceanddreams1 5 лет назад

What you see in this Video is way to expensive. You can get the 9 Bin Strip on Amazon Germany for 19.55€. The bigger ones are more expensive, up to 57€. The Manufakturer is "Allit" and the German word for those Bins is "Klappschüttenmagazin ".

@robertdiffin9136 7 лет назад

Go to your local hardware store and ask the manager/owner to order the ones THEY use (they WILL have them but not know how to find them). Have them look in their "Store Supplies section of their catalog under "Tilt Bin. (True Value SKU# (331298, 331306, 331322, 331330, 385655.ACE SKU#s will be different) )They are VERY reasonable - I know - I own a hardware store.

@thepoplarshop 11 лет назад

so much truth in the first 2 minutes! The Quantum bins look nice. I may have to do more research on the bins. I'm on this never ending hunt for the "perfect" storage solution for all my screws. Thanks for passing along your knowledge. Keep up the good work on the video's.

@jb813 4 года назад

Sorry, very slow moving and uninspired video. Somehow, I dont think vertical bins are the way to go.

@forzaitalia44g 4 года назад

I'm in the 1st minute and almost emotional. lol. I got sooooooooo much shit but it means nothing cause I can't fkn find it. Hopefully this video helps....................

@stevengockij5841 8 лет назад

You criticise one plastic storage tower but you love the next one? They're all garbage in my opinion. Sorry, but I don't like this video.

@chuckiep268 10 лет назад

Great video! And even better bin system. I see a lot of people complain about the price. Here's a tip Menards sells the same setup as these, but theirs are called Wonderbin. Same exact size and stackablity. They only cost 9.00 for 2 strips of the 6 bins, and 9.00 for 3 strips of the nine bins. I have a wall full, and they are every bit as durable and have the exact same features. If you need more or if someone doesn't want to pay the price. Hope this helps people.

@downtoearthwoodworks 10 лет назад

Thanks for the great tip... unfortunately, after visiting 4 Menard's locations I found that their "Wonderbin" was a one-time deal, they are currently on clearance, and probably not coming back as a regular product. The Wonderbin is, indeed, almost exactly the same, however the individual tip-out bins are not interchangeable with the bins in the Quantum system. This is only important if you sometimes rearrange the order of bins to keep things straight (like I do). I did manage to find the last 5 packs of the 9-bin Wonderbins and bought them all. I will use them! Wonderbin was manufactured in Israel. They have a web site, but as far as I can tell, no other US distributor. Hopefully someone will "step up" and start importing these or Menard's will change their minds and bring them back. Certainly the price IS better! Thanks again!!!

@dusterdude238 6 лет назад

I priced these on Amazon. too much! the large cabinet I would need to organize all my small parts and hardware at one time and not do it piecemeal, would cost $1,486 49 + $495.00 shipping x4! the cost of these organizers outweighs the stress factor. I'll stick with my cheapo parts organizers and will have more money for project supplies and tools!. thank you. . .

@1144panda 9 лет назад

I have a bunch of these bins in my shop; the cheapest price i found by far is McFeelys.com They are well known for their square drive screws and usually have $1 shipping. Paul

@randombrandon1940 7 лет назад

Being a "Jack of most trades" I don't think I will ever get organized. From standard nuts, bolts, machine screws, washers, button head, hex head, flat head, torx head, and then all of the same thing in metric! then there's rivets, special fasteners, Kreg, wood screws, nails, automotive... AAAAAGHHHHH!! GREAT video though, and thank you for sharing this!

@ol_gunner13b40 2 месяца назад

yeah real nice...and expensive

@downtoearthwoodworks 12 лет назад

Well... I haven't had a lot of time to think about what I would have done different - I'm still too busy "doing." I know I probably would have put in one more window. It's a trade-off, you lose some wall space, but I like the fresh air (when it's warm enough!) and the extra light. As far as what's next, I'm working on the design & build of a new miter saw station. It is going to have a cool (I hope!) way to collect dust from, arguably, the messiest machine in the shop. Thanks for watching!!!

@TonyV_in_the_OC 7 лет назад

I thought you started out this video by giving us the advise of not wasting our time or money? Well, these tip out bins are expensive in my opinion and I'm no cheapskate. I do very well and earn well into 6 figures, not just over the threshold, well over. Still, with plenty of money for my over equipped shop (for my skill level) including a load of Festool tools that I use once or twice a year, these are ridiculously expensive. $59 for a "strip of 6" is a non starter for me. Sorry, wasted video in my opinion. OK, lets move to the next valuable installment and forget this happened.....🤑💲💲💲💲

@TheAristotleQ 12 лет назад

I never fault someone for spending money in their shop. Anyone can spend whatever they want on their tools, storage, supplies and materials. But I tally $284.40, before shipping, on what I see hanging there. I think that's pretty exorbitant. For me, it just doesn't represent a good value, when for that money, I can build a bank of twelve drawers, all inclusive for less. Sure, no clear bins. But drawers can be labeled and relabeled. And I get 10 times the storage space. But to each his own.

@forzaitalia44g 4 года назад

Ok, saw the rest. It would easily cost me a $1,000 to do this. I'll find another way, thanks

@wisdomfromthewoods3638 7 лет назад

just wondering, its a wood working shop, why not just make a nifty new bin to hold those inexpensive trays? like April Wilkerson did? just wondering....

@CogentConsult 4 года назад

They’re so expensive, they must be made by Festool. Great system, though. By the time I bought what I needed, I’d have an invoice close to $700

@pualanic4023 6 лет назад

Well they’re nice and all but it’s like $24. Per strip and I’d need like too many to make it cost effective. Glad you could afford it though.

@penssuck6453 8 лет назад

@metzgeri 12 лет назад

"...quantum leap ahead in storing nuts and bolts..." Yeah, it's called several wood shelves and some tupperware containers! It doesn't get any cheaper than that! Com'on, all this ridicuoulus spending on modular systems and slant out trays? If you don't want to build the shelves, just stack the tupperware. You can even label them, as I do, with printer labels or the sort. Oh, did I mention cheaper???? Look at the price of the Quantum Crap!!!

@marlondaniels3114 6 лет назад

@lorikorstanje2964 2 года назад

thanks for the info

@peterjansen5498 7 лет назад

LOL. I use lots of those small storage drawer units. Never had anywhere near the trouble you seem to have. Labels are easy and cheap. I dont actually see how these are any better or really that much different, except for the price :)

@chuckiep268 10 лет назад

I was the one that told you about Minard's having the tip out Bins by wonderbin. They had discontinued carrying that product. However I just saw in my sales ad that they brought it back it's a three section combo. $15 with a five dollar mail in rebate just a FYI. I will be stocking up after work.

@downtoearthwoodworks 10 лет назад

Outstanding! I will look through the ton of advertising mail and see if I can find that ad!

@phillipjones3342 6 лет назад

@darrelladams1055 9 лет назад

Thanks for posting this video! I've had the same problems with storage bins as you've had, and have been looking for a better solution, but haven't found anything I like, until now! I'm going to be buying quite a few of these, and best of all, I'll be supporting American workers at the same time. By the way, you said you don't normally endorse any particular product, and for good reason, but perhaps you should reconsider! I'm very glad you endorsed this one!

@melodiehall4498 3 года назад

watching this in 2021 to keep my team organized

@downtoearthwoodworks 11 лет назад

I just quickly did the same exercise on McFeely's web site and the total came to $396.94, and that included a 2-bin unit which alone is $142 and a 1-bin unit which is $104. I don't use either of those two largest bins (I still use coffee cans for that stuff!). Example, on the 2-bin unit, each bin is 13-5/8" x 11-1/16" x 8-7/8"...I've got drawers in my shop that are not that big! For the small stuff, the Quantum bins are very cost-effective. I agree, the biggest of the bins are very pricey.

@teresajonesy115 6 лет назад

I have these and ended up here looking for an alternative. They do not come out easily and even with small hands it's difficult to get screws and things out of the smaller bins.

@ProfessorOzone 5 лет назад

Thank you for this. This kind of bin is exactly what I was looking for. I like the fact that they are 'covered' so no dust accumulates and that you can fill the whole bin AND it tilts so the stuff comes out pretty easy. It's 2019 now and I guess the prices have come down. Still not cheap, but I think I can get along with only the 9 bin rows and they are about $13 each. May be worth it for the design. Gonna go see if I can find them even cheaper.

@tommont1824 7 лет назад

You gotta be kidding,$40. a section.I'll stick with the cheap ones.

@flashgordon6238 8 лет назад

We have a portable version of these tip out bins for our Navy target drone shop. About three feet wide, five feet tall metal frame on dolly wheels. The units are double sided with the larger bins on the bottom.

@carololivie2095 4 года назад

I love these bins! I have had them a long time but couldn't find them anymore. They don't have a name on them so I couldn't search for them. Thanks for the valuable info. I can now get more of them

@nightwines 11 лет назад

Thanks for sharing. Nice bins. Just a word of advise of filming... GET TO THE POINT! You talking about wasting time in the shop but having to sit through a video that could have been done in a couple minutes is ALSO a waste of time.

@shadowdog500 10 лет назад

Thanks for posting this! I've been looking for a good solution for hardware storage and organization in my shop for some time. I have several of the older type that you started off with and agree that they don't work very well. In addition I don't trust them on the wall so they wind up taking up space on the back of a workbench.

@yoruhana190 5 лет назад

Very nice but to expensive. I have them at my work, realy handy.

@lxe1986 11 лет назад

I used a similar product about 5 years ago but they aren't in use at this time, however after watching your video I am going to put them to use. I am going to look for more of them to reorganize my nuts and bolts.

@chuckiep268 10 лет назад

You can see it on the Menards website they title them Tilt bin organizer. It shows the rebate. They are also about to stock larger sizes.

Several years ago I worked in a Hobby shop and we found one of our distributors sold these as a sales/storage system for the store. We kept commonly used small parts for our radio control section in them. When the store closed I was able to get a few of them and I have been really happy with them. I just need more!

@downtoearthwoodworks 10 лет назад

That was a lucky find! I just ran across a whole bunch of these in a fabric store… they were using them to store various buttons for sale. That store has been there forever, and not likely to close, but if it does, I will be in there quickly to try to buy the bins!

Just bought those bins. They are great. Could you tell me how you printed out the labels on your computer. I found card stock but don't know how to print the labels. Thanks

@downtoearthwoodworks 8 лет назад

+Larry O I made up an Excel spreadsheet with rectangles that match the various sizes of bin labels. Then I type in what the label should say, print out a sheet on card stock, and cut the labels out on a small paper cutter. Send me your email address (dtewsteve@gmail.com) and I will send you a copy of the spreadsheet.

@larryo2474 8 лет назад

+downtoearthwoodworks Steve,thanks for the quick reply. I have an iMac but I think I can adapt it for the Pages application .My email is L17182@aol.com.

You are very informative and I really enjoy your method of work and the easy way you explain your processes and methods.Keep the videos coming.

@PWingert1966 7 лет назад

I use a label maker for one offs and a label sheet with multi die-cut labels from avery paper products for multi-labels. I usually use some packing tape ofer top to preserve the label from getting worn over time. What I need to find are drawings of different screws, washers, nuts, and bolts to include on my labels.

@lorezyra 8 лет назад

Now that you have owned these for a few years, what is your opinion of them now?

@downtoearthwoodworks 8 лет назад

+バートレット理路 Since making this video I have moved these to a larger wall upstairs in my shop and continued to purchase more. I now have three times as many of these bins as I had when I made the video. Every once in a while, McFeelys (www.mcfeelys.com) has these on sale, and I try to pick up a couple more when they do. I just added three more of the "four-bin" units about a month ago. I still think they are the best solution for storing all the "bits and pieces" we woodworkers collect.
