[Histonet] Super spice racks??

[Robert Chiovetti]

Leslie,

Good idea about putting labels on the caps of the bottles!  

Although more $$ would be involved, it might be worth investing in something like a cytec storage cabinet.  The shelves are clear plastic w/ holes in them to hold small bottles, and the door is clear plastic so you can see through it.  Take a look at the bottom of this web page from Hacker Instruments:

Cheers,

Bob

Subject: [Histonet] Super spice racks??

We're hoping someone out there can tell us how they solved what is probably a pretty common problem.  We have three drawers full of small dye powder bottles.  They're in no particular order so we waste time pulling out bottles trying to find the one we want.  We think we need a super spice rack of some sort to organize these bottles.  Can anyone suggest something that has worked for them?  Thank you very much!
