The Sortimos boxes look hard to scale, so I would look into simpler solutions (like generic plastic tubs) but it's good that you're thinking of sorting.

For FRC I would recommend a miter saw/cold saw over a horizontal bandsaw due to the smoother cut ends. I can get within 0.01" on the length of a tube with our miter saw. The disadvantage is that it is scary to use and screams when working, but I would still take it over a horizontal saw five days out of six.

I assume you already own a drill press and a vertical bandsaw. If you don't, buy one immediately. They are both incredibly useful tools.
