Default Soup cans vs 55 gallon drums for storage solution

Glenn uses 55 gallon drums for storage. I have limited space in my Wood Shop for storage and the small bolts, nuts and washers I use often needed a small convenient space to be stored. So I made this little cabinet with sliding doors from scraps that sits on the floor under a bench overhang and some Campbell Soup cans to hold the parts. Same principle as Glenns 55 gallon barrel solution just a much smaller scale.

Duplex outlet is for size purposes.

simple handles are so I can pick it up easily and set on a bench for selection.
