MyDearWatson616,

The organization is nice, but labeled bins isn’t really an “idea”. Like I had this great idea to add butter to my toast!

Funkymatt,

What’s a firebolt cable?

Earthwormjim91,

There’s a very popular cheap smartwatch in India called a fire bolt that uses a special proprietary charging cable.

SpeedLimit55,

Maybe it’s supposed to be thunderbolt cable?

Annoyed_Crabby,

I thought combining those two with Frostbolt Cable make it a better cable?

No idea. I remember there being a firewire cable back in the day though.

Where’s 802.11? /s

LufyCZ,

Fills the gap between the other boxes

sgx,

Don’t he have any SCART in there ?

JackFrostNCola,

I use a shoe box with ‘empty’ toilet rolls for myne, stack the cardboard toilet rolls vertically like a honeycomb and put a coiled cable in each with the ends pointing up so you can see what they are.

cordlesslamp,

Do you glued down the cardboard tubes?

Uranium_Green,

Not who you asked, but if the rolls are glued down, it’ll damage the box if you ever have to replace a tube, whereas your can replace a roll once it’s worn out if they aren’t glued down. Also glue makes it less directly recyclable when replacing them.

matt,

Great idea! This is better than my “dump them all in a drawer” system.

minorcoma,

These go on sale at Michael’s all the time. I like using these for electronic components, very handy to keep little parts organized. Think they’re a little tight for most cables, I like plastic shoe boxes for those.

LifeInOregon,

They’re regularly cheaper at Harbor Freight if you have one nearby.

AUX, AUX, baby…

nomecks,

I prefer the traditional Rubbermaid 5 gallon black hole of cables.

Dragster39,

I have a huge black box which is unlabeled, toss it in there and more frequently used cables automatically migrate to the top.

ElderWendigo,

Just put each cable, or set of cables, into a ziplock bag. No more tangle, no twist ties, no need to label.

The_Hideous_Orgalorg,

I see your 5 gallon and raise you a 55 gallon gherkin barrel.

variants,

That’s a lot of space for cables
