Storage

Hi. I thought I would send along this idea. I use emptied Parmesan Cheese containers that you can get at most stores.
(see picture) I find they are very handy for holding various items. I use the 3 ounce size for rigging thread and it can be run up through 3 holds in the top of the container.

I have been modeling for many years, on and off, but on again now. At one time I thought I would have an HO scale layout but have never had the room for it. I have shelves full of rolling stock and buildings.

Since 1998 I have go back to ship models and have 4 in the works.I find that at age 75 it keeps me about of trouble and off the streets. The attachment is safe to
open.

SMH Responds Paul, even though at 73, I am, to a great deal your junior, we do have a lot in common--you're in Meredith, I'm in Nashua. I recently came off an N scale layout and have been scratch building HO dioramas. I find for apartment living they tend to take up too much room. I am reverting to a couple kits I have on hand.

I still have one scratch build I want to finish, Noah's Ark in N Scale. 300 cubits in length which translates to 27 inches in length. Keeps me out of the bars.
