I recently found some nice flat stackable boxes in Robert Dyas.

The Organiser-160 has 14 compartments of various sizes (not adjustable), and
I've successfully put all of my Technic/Mindstorms stuff into a bunch of them -
all except for the big wheels and RCX's.

They are red and have a nice tight-fitting clear plastic lid which stops parts
migrating.

There is an Organiser-260 as well which is basically 2 160's stuck back-to-
back. That was no use to me, but I found that you can split them to make 2
singles.

They're not everso cheap (£5.99 for the 160, £11.99 for the 260), but I found
one 260 without a handle and asked for a discount - got it for £7. Who needs
handles anyway!

They are made by ZAG Industries in Israel.

Hope this is useful to someone.

Regards,
Conrad Venn.

I am looking for a storage solution which is readily available in the UK
which is similar to the plano tackle much endorsed by our US lugnuts

i.e the flat tackle boxes with the adjustable dividers which can contain
parts sorted by either colour or part. I can no longer cope with all my
lego in one big box. which gets tipped out each time I want to build
something.

Th IKEA Moppe boxes have already been discussed but are not suitable for me
as wall space is at a premium, need something flat and stackable.
