Chain storage

currently scattered around on the floor of the truck

In the shed I have a drawer in a filing cabinet with "Question Mark" chains and various old files things like that, and for out and about I have cut-off Aspen containers in a big plastic crate, one per chain type of good-to-go and easily-salvaged, and another of mixed buggered chains - rocks, nails, digger teeth (whoops) etc. - that I might get around to fixing one day.

Tupperware in the van tool locker. Cuphooks in the workshop with a tag label on each hook to ID the chains.

Rotatech sell these little zip lock pouches for keeping chains in. They're marked with the chain size, and you can then store 10-15 chains in an old paint bucket.

 

Unfortunately, the pouches are quite expensive. But you do get a free chain inside each one

Yes those pouches are good but you still need somewhere to put them.

 

Halfords were selling a 3 draw metal tool chest a few months back for 25 quid, I got a couple. Ideal for chains, I thought. I then aquired mire lathe tools that needed a home so they are full now!

 

 

14L clear plastic tub has most of my chains.

Ignore the mess, theres not much space and was charging the car battery.
