    Polishing Pads - organizing them

    Right along with the OCD that plagues many of us, I had too many totes for different pad types, sizes, etc.. Many of those totes were underutilized, only 1/2 full due to odd pad sizes, or were just weren't big enough to accommodate all of one size/type.

    I decided to consolidate into one big tote, with dividers separating pad sizes/types, along with an area for miscellaneous backing plates, pad brushes, etc. It's nothing fancy, and cost about $20 & 20 minutes to "build".

    Just a random idea that might work for weekend warriors with too many pads and polishers (if there is such a thing)! Notice, there's room for expansion........now where is that gift certificate I have?

    Dividers are a good idea. I store in a similar plastic container but it's hard to keep them organized.

    Looks awesome, here's how I set mine up but unfortunately it's not portable like your set up.

    Re: Polishing Pads - organizing them

    I use something similar to the above post. I bought the drawer setup that is half the width, allows me to do a row of pads then put some on each side. I think I am have 10 or so drawers. that I screwed to stips of wood and mounted to the wall.
