One item for sorting parts I haven't seen mentioned is glazed earthenware
.......the XYL here has some very nice shallow dishes with sloping sides
that "go missing" when I have a kit on the bench! They are quite solid and
not so easily flipped over if something is leaned on them during use....( I
bet some of you have catapaulted components out of a light container?) If
you get really rough they are very cheap to replace.....that hasn't been
necessary here ...yet...
As mentioned, the piece of antistatic foam takes some beating for sorting
caps out, and sorting containers shouldn't be required for the CMOS chips
and FET's as Elecraft have them already in anti-static containers. It's
just a matter of taking the precautions when you install them, and the
Manual is pretty specific on how to go about that.
FWIW
Cheers.......Ron ZL1TW
