Strap storage

I've found plenty of posts on watch storage (boxes, roles, whatever), but what about straps? I've got an abundance of bracelets, natos, rubber straps, buckles, deployant clasps, etc and right now they are kind of all dumped in a pelican case. Well, the bracelets are in some leather pouches and then dumped in the case. I would like to lay them all out side by side in drawers maybe. I've looked at a few different set ups, but I short of a pretty large and spendy gerstner type engineers toolbox I'm not liking the solutions. Any creative solutions out there? Or just dump them in a drawer and move on?

I keep my straps sorted by size in 3 ring binders. Each binder holds about 100 straps. Very easy to access. Haven't found a better way. Doesn't work with bracelets (too heavy). I put these in shallow drawers sorted by size and style. Don't get me started about end links 😉

That’s some serious strappage. Nicely done.

Holy crud. I just use a couple giant ziplock bags. 😁

I mean...just wow. I would like to amend my earlier use of the word "abundance". I see now it has a different definition. 😀

But...now...what about those end links? 😉
