FYI- Storage boxes

Just to let everyone know. I was in Wal-Mart this morning and they had a sale going on in the school section. Their storage boxes are only .25 each. I picked up 12 to make some jig boxes. It's the 8 5/8 x 5 3/4 x 2 1/2 boxes. May want to check your local Wal-Mart stores if you are looking to buy some. Here's the pic of them.

LOL :D It is bad when you're looking for a box and come out with a case but $3 wasn't bad at all :):). I won't be using all of them for jigs but a box all ways comes in handy.

Soon as you get one of those boxes full, I'll send you my address. LOL Just my luck that they would put them on sale after I had gotten some. Thanks Ronnie.

It's now time to cut some pool noddles into wedges and get the hot glue going.

I also took advantage of this idea for jig storage boxes. I found this new style of pool noodle and they fit boxes perfectly.

75 cents here in western Illinois

I found those same boxes here in Illinois and they are .75. Since I have lots of storage right now I passed.
Great idea if you need storage. Illinoisgiller

dry

I found if you don't let your jigs dry out ater use and before storing them into the noodle, rust occures rather quickly. Get some silica pouches and hot glue them to the lid of your box. It's always there and out of the way.

Good tip, where did you buy the silica pouches. I would like to have some to put in all my boxes.
