Clear bins actually stress me out because I see every bit of mess inside. Square bins seem efficient, but round ones fit better in tight spots and are simpler to use. @hayden_webb's idea about nothing getting lost is smart, yet square corners can make it harder to reach small items. Plus, clear plastic gets cloudy over time and looks cheap. Sometimes opaque bins just work better for hiding the chaos.

Dixon lumber crayons last me about six months of daily use. The wax ones don't gum up my plane iron like chalk dust can. It's a tiny habit that saves so much cussing later, lol.
