    Emptying the coffee cans helps you stay awake late sorting all the brass too

        I let the kids play with it - better to get them exposed to it a young age so they can build up a resistance..

          Just depends on how much brass you have accumulated but I store in 5 gallon buckets for dirty/unsorted and those $1 plastic shoe box sized containers for cleaned and sorted brass.

          Also have various containers like those large Costco trail mix containers along with zip lock bags.

            I actually saved like a 3+ gallon(?) pretzel container for future use, if the coffee cans get filled to the top:

              This, combined with your signature line, is hilarious.

                Costco has a great set of plastic containers right now that are clear, large, stackable, and clip shut.

                  Half gallon plastic milk bottles work for me.

                    For uncleaned brass, I leave them in a 5gl home depot bucket with a lid.

                    My cleaned brass is stored in ziplok baggies in bins.

                      Just tape up those boxes of brass and put it where kids can get to them or clean them as soon as you get home if your that paranoid about the lead.

                            I also clean it as soon as I get home and put in plastic shoe boxes with lids, no kids.
