Shop Fastener Storage

All the time I spend looking for a nut or bolt or traveling back and forth to the store is an enormous waste of time and money. And sorting all the miscellaneous fasteners would also be very time consuming. I'm seriously considering building or buying a decent storage solution then filling it with brand new fasteners.

I have a few bins. Need more light

Lots of good options here. I feel like having a bin for every thread size and pitch would work well enough for me. I could probably throw trim clips together in one, trim screws in another. That way I don't have a ton of bins with 2 things in them, but I also don't have a single general fastener pile where I have to spend half an hour sorting and identifying to find what I need.
 
I have 4 shelves with various sized bins and several Stanley portable cases. I do a lot of work outside of the shop on my rentals and this system allows for portability.
I really like Stinkbug’s setup. What brand is that?
