How do you store your consumables?

admin

Just curious how you store your consumables and looking forward to seeing some great ideas in addition to the typical such as the pic below for my 'replacement' GA20C (thanks crawler ) items.Top row is .023, then .030 (drive rolls in the MM200), next is .035 with .045 reserved for along the bottom if added.

Reply:Looks pretty similar to the way I do it.  I keep those plastic organizer boxes on the truck.  In the shop I have a drawer in my small parts box.  You know the ones like you see in the parts stores that have divider drawers that pull out and have grease fitting, clips, etc... in them.  I have a whole drawer dedicated to various consumables from contact tips to spare O/A Tips.I'm a Lover, Fighter, Wild horse Rider, and a pretty good welding man......

Reply:It appears that the two cans of beer are welded together. Is that for chugging the beer? Or maybe a holder for something none drinkable?Co-Own CNC shop:Miller :1251 plasma cutter, MaxStar 700 TIG/Stick, & XMT 456 Multiprocess Welder.&  2 Hypertherm HPR260's Plasma CutterSorry I had a bad stroke but now I am back.
