Manufacturing Tooling Control

We are an industrial manufacturing company that uses a lot of tooling (e.g. drill bits, inserts, etc.). We are interested in knowing how other companies control the stocking, issuing and replenishment of tooling such as this.
The tooling tends to be fairly low dollar items, but may have a high rate of usage. Do you floor stock these items, use a barcode solution to integrate with inventory, expense the items at time of purchase, use min/max cards, or some other solution?

We're just researching this currently, and I'd appreciate any feedback. Thank you in advance.

Don,
We just implemented the tool crib in our manufacturing department. It is working really well. If you e-mail me, I can hook you up with our manufacturing applications person that help set it up.
