For the small Dremel grinding discs that are not reinforced, I have heard of taking thin super glue (CA) and saturating the discs before use and letting them dry completely, to add strength. Personally, I've never tried this, as I use larger, fiberglass-reinforced wheels. But regardless of the type, eye protection is a MUST!

Nice Instructable!Another way to handle the problem is to get a piece of foam board / posterboard, or even cardboard, and do the layout as mentioned, but poke slightly undersized holes with various size nails in the board for each screw size. Then, push the screws or bolts into the board. The friction of the screws in the board will hold them in place, and you can easily slide them out as needed. If you need to keep nuts sorted you will either need to tape them down, or use a muffin pan or plastic ice cube tray to separate them.
