I have been doing more fab and repair work with SMD.

This is done by hand, with a soldering iron and hot air gun. No robotics etc., this is DIY

It's going O but I need a practical means to stage SMD parts while I'm building.

I see some users on Youtube using a sort of rotary thingy--like a lazy susan-- with different wedges where they put their parts. They then reach in and tweezer out whatever they need. OK, but I am not sure what this is called or where to get it.

I'd like this to be resistant to being bumped (so, you bump the staged SMD bin a bit and the parts don't all get scrambled). Extra credit if there is some easy way to label what each mini bin or wedgey or cutout or whatever has in it, because it can be really hard to read that directly off the SMD part if it's really small.

Any suggestions are appreciated. thanks.
