'Long' Off Cut Storage?

    Sorry, guys. I'm sure this is a real chestnut, for here. I tried searching ~ But, we all know how 'useful' that's become 😬

    What genius ideas have the Masters come up with then, please? 😁 I don't mean sheets. Just 2x2, down to dowels and mouldings. Bits, basically. Stuff ye never need, till ye burn 18" of it, then have to buy a new whole length! I had an old, lidless, bird nest box. That was alright. Soon filled up though.

    Tried an old trug bucket? Way too big! Wood all fell over and out!

    Figured I was crafty; Tied it all together with cable ties. Yeah. I like wasting plastic 🙄. Right now? It's Laying on the floor, in there. Driving me mad.

    Has anyone invented anything ~ had their idea promptly stolen by the Chinese and which I can now pick up on Amazon ~ please? Kitchen flip top? Or, is it destined to become Fuel?! 😂

    Some kind of container with a wire or wooden mesh placed horizontally across it? Like a variation of the utensil basket I have in my dishwasher to stop all my cutlery from nesting!

    Nice! We used to use Tea Chests. Remember those? Ubiquitous, when ye always saw jars, screwed under shelves. Along with baccy tins 😉 Mesh would keep stuff sweet though, wouldn't it?

    Trying desperately to remember what the great Mr Jeffries used, at school. Based on his life time of professional involvement with wood. Probably a bloody tea chest, like everyone else! 😄
