Temporary movements or parts storage ..... "Click" to Login or Register

I really did not know where to post this so perhaps the management will move this to the proper thread.

We rarely eat fast food but last week we chanced it again at a place called Captain D's. They serve an assortment of fish products and side dishes.

Anyway, I ordered a small side of slaw, and it came in the little container pictured below, and that's when a light went off in my mind Roll Eyes, and I thought that these would make a great place to store watch parts or movements, and the price was right.

They come with lids that snap on tight that could be marked for whatever reason you might have.

They will hold up to an 18 size movement easily, and like I said, if you know the manager of your favorite FF store he may give you some.

We have take - out Chinese here and the sweet and sour sauce comes in those type containers. I have been using them for quite a while now, and they are very handy!



Regards,
Larry

It works even better when the container does not have the sauce in it.

Actually Deacon, if your movement is running slow some hot sauce will speed things up Roll Eyes
