Storing Needles, Air Caps, etc.

[Steve Kohn]

In doing my latest spraying I've come to realize that my lack of a storage container for the various spray gun implements (needles, caps, etc.) is risky. What do other people use, or is there something out there that I haven't found yet?

I use rectangular clip top plastic containers. They are the cheap ones from the supermarket. They are unaffected by solvents and so last for years. Cheers

My kit actually came with a plastic container with form-fitting foam insert for all the various combinations and I think you have identified something that is a good idea...a container to, well...contain all these parts and keep them clean and safe from damage. It's a nice little weekend woodworking project, too. :)

Honey Butter is delicious and provides a nice container.

I took Jim's suggestion to heart and created this simple box.403784403785

Steve, that's a really nice setup!! Honestly, I like that better than the OEM setup I have, at least from the standpoint of organization and easy identification of things that are there. Bravo!

Thanks for the compliment. My big fear, other than damaging a needle etc., was getting the bits and pieces mixed up. What I did not show is a piece of foam that goes between the lid and the parts that holds everything in place.

Good move on the piece of foam!
