Zag makes a good product.  I use one of their larger storage bins for my
building selection of basic bricks:

(you can deep link, Tom.  see?)

It's larger than what you're describing, but I LOVE the removable bins.  It
allows me to just pull an empty bin and go to my main brick storage to fill
it up.  Plus, the plastic is a nice solid construction.

I was browsing Costco yesterday, and found a set of 3 storage containers
in the tool section.  They are thin, only about 2-3" deep, but the key
is, rather than having a bottom that has lots of dividers, it is a
bottom/hinged top filled with tons of little open-topped bins.  The bins
fit together with no spaces between them.  When you close the clear lid,
it locks the bins into place, and it LOOKS like there isn't even enough
room for a half bushing to fit between the bins and lid.

These would be perfect for a very small Technic collection, or for a
portable building kit for larger collections - just fill all the bins
with technic pins, etc, and when building, only remove the bins you need
for that step/project.

The company site is http://www.zag.co.il , site sucks, you can't deep
link to an item.

The set is 60667, which doesn't show on their site.  It contains one
large (14325) and 2 small (14209) containers.

Go to:
http://www.zag.co.il/products.asp?Super_id=1&Sub_Super_id=1
Choose Organizers in the right column.
Choose Professional Organizers in the right column of the next page
Look at 14209 for the small
Look at 14325 for the large (the pic on this page is WRONG, but when you
view the detailed info for it, it has the right pic)

Or just load the pics at:
http://www.zag.co.il/upLoadImages/14209.jpg
http://www.zag.co.il/upLoadImages/14325.jpg

It's too bad they didn't make a 4 container set with a 14408 included,
that would have made an ideal set.

I'll let you know how they work out for Technic storage as soon as I
load one or more up ;-)
