I need to order another set and I want to keep them organized, easy to access. Suitable for storage as my work area is small. I end up losing too many and they easily disorganized. Anyone try a Loose-leaf binder? What do the Techs here use?

I'm far from organized but I made a place in an old jameco box

I use similar bins as well. I have a cabinet with bins for 2879 and similar amps with all the repair parts in them and labeled. I also have a cabinet for the Ameritron tube amp parts as well as a bin for their solid state amps. Another cabinet for all the popular range of caps and resistors for generic whatever repairs. Then the unpopular stuff is just in a box under the bench with them put in zipper bags from such range to such range.
 
I keep them in labeled baggies, ascending values, in a latching case with adjustable compartments.

Not the best but it has worked well for me, until now. I'm seriously thinking of a binder now.
