My XYL started saving egg boxes for me after someone suggested the idea on
this reflector. By the time the K3 actually arrived I had almost enough so
each screw could have its own compartment. :)
I did find it seriously useful to have labelled compartments for each size
of screw, nut etc. They had to be sorted out at the inventory stage, so to
mix them back up together and then sort them out again when needed makes no
sense to me, and just adds another source of error.
