I have a variant of that. At the back corner of my
bench is a stack of
perhaps a couple of dozen small round plastic tubs, about 70mm dia and
mostly around 25mm deep, which various dips and sauces from ready-meals
came in. When I take something apart, the first batch of bits goes in a
tub. The next batch goes in another tub, which sits on top of the first,
and so on. At any given time there are probably three or four stacks on
the go, as there are 3-4 projects/repairs waiting for parts (or time, or
further thought, or enthusiasm).
I do that with old fruit juice concentrate containers - those are large
enough that I normally tuck a sheet of paper in with the parts containing
helpful scribbles. I don't stack them though, as it could get ugly if they
fell over :-)
Ground coffee containers work well for larger odds and ends.
