Those look nice and organized! Mine are "kinda" sorted by color and just thrown in the divider-style box together.

I made a couple from old DVD boxes once but mine are now thrown into divided sectional plastic boxes now too. Your boxes look good.Thumbs Up

I like that. Where do you get the "ribbed foam" looking filler?

That foam is the swimming pool noodles cut to length and glued into the box.

That is pretty neat. I found a few metal cigarette cases at the flea market and made mine. Found some 1/8" foam and glued it to one side. I pinch down the barbs before putting the jigs in the case.

Here are the jig boxes that I am currently using. My neighbor is a anesthetist at a hospital and he brought these home. They were going to throw them away. I ended up with about 20 of them. The foam is so it can be taken out so you can use all four sides. they are compacted and hold a lot of jigs.

Very cool Redman! I like that and if you have 4 sides the left side must come out or flip over?

Yes the foam comes out of both sides and there are four sides. I have the box I am working with now with 70 jigs in it. Skip they are a joy to work with. Wish I had enough to give some to everyone. Will see what I can do will talk to my neighbor and see how many he can get me. Maybe every one will at least get one.

Personally, I like to use a spinnerbait binder. Keeps all of the different colors organized and visible.
