FridgeFreezer Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Just came across this, thought it was a pretty neat little thing for the workshop: https://www.printables.com/model/289739-metric-hex-nut-sorter-v2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 That would be useful! I've spent many hours sorting spare nuts and bolts. You do reap the benefits next time you need something, so time well spent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Does it work for metric/imperial ? 😛 Those of us with 90's era LR product would require that..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escape Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 What about flanged nuts? I'd want them sorted by thread size, not outer diameter of course. And for bolts you need to be able to take length into account as well. Getting a few slaves to sort the old fasteners seems easier. 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I just realised, if he had some more cilinders, he could build a nut sorting column and sort all sizes in one go. That would be proper cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbekko Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I think in the original post the guy said that they're stackable to do just that, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
