Storage For Scrap Glass

by Keith Robinson
(Cottingham, UK)

I bought this stack of six storage drawers from a local office supplies shop (Staples) for a few pounds. They are supposed to be for office use but I find them very usefull for glass scraps, sorted by colour. As they are constucted from tough nylon type material they can take a lot of weight, and be removed for benchtop investigation without cracking (like the drawers in a fridge tend to do) They come with castors and can either be stacked with others or broken down into 2s or 3s etc. Inexpensive and functional - what more could you want?

Glass Storage - Save Money
by: Foggy Bottom Designs

I use the same system for storing glass scraps. I get them from WalMart or similar stores when they are having a sale. Always need extra seperations when colors vary too much in one bin.

Storage

My storage is this:
Ice cream boxes for any that will fit. There are some pretty good ice cream boxes. Anything larger goes into the regular storage bins

Great Storage Idea
by: Anonymous

Hi Keith,

Those do make good storage units for scrap glass. I'll have to see if Staples carries something similar here in the USA. I could use a complete studio clean-up and they would be ideal to get organized.
