Does your cord box look like this?

[Eric H]

There's every kind of cord, cable, wall wart, USB, imaginable in here, bought at the thrifts mostly because "Someday I'll need it" and often I do, but no matter how hard I try to keep it organized it eventually comes to this.

yup, I've got a box like that. Just yesterday I was able to find TWO cords that I needed out of it!

I have a medium sized box and an old suitcase filled - strangely, except for the dozen or so wall transformers I pretty much know what I have in there.

I put my stock of cords in individual plastic seal-able bags. I can see what is there and no jumbled mess.

My cord box doesn't look anything like that tangled mess!




























But someday I hope to get it cleaned up enough so it will!

Only when I move houses. Typically I sort my cords into shopping bags within the box. Power cords one bag, wall warts in another, other bags audio video cables, F type coax, phone and Ethernet cables, etc....If I know what category of cable I want I only have to dig through a single bag to find the best/right one....Or if any cable of the type will work just grab the first thing I touch and go use it.

Yep, I have a coupe boxes just like that. I've made several attempts to thin the herd but...

[vortalexfan]

yep, I actually had 2 boxes and a cloth bag full of cables of various types that almost always got disorganized because I ended up rummaging through to try and find a cable I needed to repair an old radio or TV or VCR, or computer.

I just recently got my cables consolidated to one box.

Lol this.

Mine usually flood over the top of the box and onto the floor.
