I went to a similar problem and I found a solution at Office Depot. It's a plastic cabinet monted on caster 30" high x 15" depht x 12" large. It contain 6 drawers 4" high. Cost about $25.

(...) This comment, and similar ones from others, brings a question to mind... How many people store their minifigs assembled, and how many break them down into parts for storage? Me, I break my minifigs down and separately store torsos/arms/hands, (...) (24 years ago, 22-Jun-00, to lugnet.storage)

(...) I contacted Plano directly, and arranged to buy a supply (>100!) of their 3700 tackle boxes. If you can buy them in bulk, the price goes *way* down. (I think I paid around $2.40 each for the 3700s, you could probably get the 3600s for even (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jun-00, to lugnet.storage)

(...) I personally like the Plano storage boxes (3600 series). They fit nicely in most anything that can handle an 8-1/2" X 11" file. I have nearly all of my Technic pieces sorted into the Plano boxes which I have stored in a small file box I got (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jun-00, to lugnet.storage)
