small storage boxes suggestions please

QUESTION:

small storage boxes suggestions please I could do with knowing a UK source for small boxes to put oddments in, current work in progress parts in , that sort of thing. That would stack, with lids. Currently using tesco pasta trays but stacking sees contents vulnerable as they have no lids. Size wise 3 x 2 inch, 4 x 3, 8 x 4, inches

ANSWER:

-The Dollar Store has 9 x 6 x 2" H Wood Boxes. They are made of a light (as balsa) but harder wood. I use them for keeping hobby parts as well as for making dioramas. They are solidly made, stack well and easily and will protect any delicate parts you have.
-I use the little metal cabinets with clear plastic drawers used for storing screws, nuts, and bolts. I have two. One is 10" W x 9-1/2" H x 6-1/4" D and has 18 equal sized drawers arranged in 6 rows of 3 columns. The other is 12" W x 16-1/2" H x 5" D and has 35 drawers of 3 different sizes arranged in 6 rows of 5 columns, 1 row of 4 columns (4 drawers), and 1 row of 1 column (full width drawer). The drawers don't have lids, but very little dust gets in the drawers. Easier access to the separate containers without unstacking containers to get to the right parts.
