Hey guys, I've got all my chips in a box right now, I'm wanting to put them out on a shelf. I was thinking about something like a DVD case without the disc holder part. Do you guys know of anything suitable? I figure I could fit a half dozen smaller ones per case and keep them on a shelf nicely..

I think I found it.. hubless VHS cases. Deep enough to hold even slot processors or ones with heatsinks, and I could fit a half dozen smaller ones in them.. stacks easily on a shelf, can label the sleeves for whats inside.. Just have to find someone selling less than 50 of them..

Do you line those boxes with antistatic foam or anything?

I don't suppose you have any pictures of them in use?

I agree - that second pic was unneccesarily cruel! Very Happy
