Okay, my wife & I have amassed a large assortment of vaping gear in a short period of time. (I may have slightly skewed our break-even time!  Embarrassed ) Our bar is now halfway covered in vaping gear, extra parts, eliquid (including one of TW's mixing kits), a 10-battery charger, and...well...all of the other stuff that comes with vaping turned into a borderline obsessive compulive disorder/hobby. And now we have added the eGo-C, its parts, and clearomizers to the arsenal. Grin

It has grown to the point where one of our cousins (who we've converted into a 510T vaper as well!  Wink ) commented that our bar looks like a mad scientist's laboratory bench!

I have been considering some solutions like these storage bins for the spare parts:
http://www.amazon.com/Stack-On-CB-12-Clear-12-Bin-Organizer/dp/B000M2WVT4/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1340125482&sr=8-10&keywords=stacking+storage+bins

And a nail polish rack for the smaller bottle of eliquid...like this...
http://www.amazon.com/Top-Performance-Acrylic-Polish-Display/dp/B003WGQAVM/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1340125992&sr=8-5&keywords=nail+polish+organizer

In fact, part of the thought behind these two products in particular is that I could fasten the nail polish rack to the backside of the storage bins. This would keep them together if we ever want to move/hide our vaping supplies, and it would help minimize the clutter. My only (minor) concern is with the bins. I think they are probably too big for what I would really need/use. After all, a dozen spare clearomizers may fill one bin nicely, but having a bin for a half dozen spare 510T atomizers is a bit overkill.

At any rate, those are just some of my wild & crazy thoughts for trying to stop our vaping gear from completely taking over our bar. Well, that & my wife hates the clutter, and a happy wife is priceless!  Smiley



So what are some other options? How are you taming your overflow?!?

It doesn't take long to fill one of those bin type storage units I promise you!!! I do have quite a lot of gear I've amassed over some time.

I use a couple of cheap plastic toolboxes that have compartment storage in the top, a small storage box with compartments purely for parts that I currently use (atomisers, DCTs, connectors, mouthpieces, batteries, devices), a couple of lead lined wooden boxes where I keep lithium batteries (for the SD and mods I own), and two small plastic storage crates to house a huge assortment of concentrates. Then I have a dedicated bar fridge for all my e-liquid.

Most of mine lives above the kitchen cupboards out of the way, I'm stood on a stool dragging stuff down  and putting it back every day but that's because of the children element in our house.

One day it would be nice to have a vaping bar, I love your set-up Smiley.

The nail polish rack is a nice idea for the small dropper bottles, how about a spice rack for the larger ones?

I have a slightly different organisational problem recently solved.
I work away in different towns every other weekend and like a selection of flavours.
I enjoy the mixing thing, 'alchemy' aspect of vaping, trying to perfect different witch's brews.
Found my perfect alchemist's box for enough kit and flavours on a certain eshop for a tenner.
A magic box for vaping Smiley

Spice racks also makes a nice store for juice bottles and look a little nicer than the very industrial looking racks some posted
