Seal organization

With a nice four day weekend I got to have this weekend, I was able to spend some quality time with my daughter AND get a few things taken care of in the garage.

Something that I've been wanting to do for a while now is come up with a way to organize the seals during a rebuild. The Mazda factory seal boxes are nice, but at $100 on a box, it seems a bit overkill.

I use a nice metal workbench that I got at an auction for $25 for engine builds.... it has a nice pull out drawer that for a while was used as storage for misc parts and junk but I'm getting ORGANIZED finally.

I took the idea from the Mazda factory seal box and made this:

I'm working on organizing rotors, bearings, etc as well to keep engine parts separated based on generation/type as well. The drawer has enough room to hold about 9 rotors, all bearings, all seals and dowels, etc.

Just thought I'd share the idea and I'm curious what others have done to organize seals during a build...
