it is, and you feel like you are getting something annoying off your plate.But I could see sorting nuts and bolts as actually soothing as it's kinda mindless.

That is the whole feeling of getting organized. Mess is so annoying.it is, and you feel like you are getting something annoying off your plate.
C-bag, this looks like my shop before the fire.I have decades of nuts and bolts I kept from parts that got swapped out. So Harbor Frieght had these great HD plastic organizing trays and I’ve been sorting through and getting them into those trays. And when I’ve finally gotten them sorted then they will go in this old Aeroquip bin unit I picked up cheap on CL. It’s an ongoing project when I get the urge. I also suggest size gauges standard and metic to help speed sorting.
Hey guys, I buy my bolts, nuts and washers at the John Deer dealer. They sell by the pound. Class 5-8.Just started my bolt organizer.

Super reasonable!
Tractor supply sells made in US quality bolts etc. by the pound also?tractor supply by the lb...
I read yours and others accounts of the fires and I’m sorry that happened. I would be really messed up to loose my decades of accumulating.I’m one of those guys that picks up screws, nuts, cotter pins, retaining clips, special bolts etc and throws them in a jar.
Ah, well, good point.I didn't say made in US... And what makes you think John Deere's bolts are made in US?
I kind of think of John Deere as one of the companies that sold out the country.
All I see on Youtube from farmers is how Fd up their JD's are, and that they can't do basic work on them.
also, I didn't see where you mentioned that the JD bolts were from the US..
Very few screw companies left in the USA... very few.
