The item in my kit

I bought Double-Sided Small-Parts Organizer as part of my camper van equipment.

The roof build involved M5 hardware, quarter-twenty hardware, washers and several types of connector. A compartment organizer is one of the storage purchases in my build kit for managing that kind of small-parts collection.

Where it fits my build

The van build used several working spaces, including the patio for the storage-bin drawer and an outdoor setup for the roof equipment. I measured and assembled the drawer frame on the patio before fitting the lining and slides.

During the earlier cargo-floor cleanup, I wrote about loading the tools back into the van and driving out to work. Moving and organizing the equipment was part of the practical routine around the fabrication tasks.

My build notes

The workshop arrangements changed with the job. The diary photos show both a timber assembly area and a portable saw setup, providing context for the work-holding and storage equipment in my purchases.

The kit had to move between storage, transport and the place where I was working.

Alternative products

Two alternatives to compare

The STANLEY FATMAX and DEWALT organizers offer other divided small-parts cases. Compartment depth, removable sections and the case layout distinguish these portable storage formats.
