Back in the day, we used coffee cans for everything on the job
I was remembering how stuff was when I first got into ironwork. We didn't have all these fancy tools back then. Once, on a high-rise job, we ran out of proper containers for bolts. So, we used old coffee cans tied to our belts. It worked until one guy tripped and sent bolts flying everywhere. We spent half an hour picking them up from between the beams. Now, with organized kits and pouches, it's so much easier. But sometimes I miss the crazy fixes... though they were a mess.
