Colleagues,
I found a bunch of Akro-Mils plastic cabinets (perfect for small
components) and a rolling cart thing on the street. Like this:
https://akro-mils.com/Products/Types/Portable-Small-Parts-Storage/Plastic-Cabinets/10164
Once I washed the blood off--and I'm not kidding about that--they've
been great. No idea what had happened to them, and they don't answer
questions when I ask. Probably an Elmore Leonard story in there, somewhere.
Thanks,
Ole
