Re: VEX/FTC/FLL parts box - new recommendations

Cabela's sells the Plano 1374 for $29.88. Slightly wider than the 1373-30: 20.75"L x 11.5"W x 15.25"H, but still short enough for shelf clearance. You'd probably want to switch the 2 trays for boxes. Free shipping for a couple days if you order 4+, otherwise it's $41/ea.

The PDT is cool, but I do wonder about the "no lid" thing. Not that I've seen VEXers pull out a drawer and then knock it completely over (and of course, I've never done that), but lids do have their bonuses. Also note, it's $47 with shipping.

Also, I know it's got a different shelf profile (how much more are you going to put in the closet anyway?), but you might consider small toolboxes with Plano/AC Moore compartment boxes in them. You'd probably come out a lot cheaper if that'd still fit the need. Plano also does toolboxes. (not so cheap)

If it doesn't bust your minimum drawer height, they make slightly shorter but wider 4-highs too. (Well, it says 17.5ft L, but I'm pretty sure they mean inches.) Not positive the trays can switch for boxes, but this one would work.
