Those style of boxes are cool but they sure fill up fast, especially with feather and fur packs. You need something like this:I'm dressing up my tying bench and looking to replace the plastic containers I currently use for materials. Thinking something cool like an antique map cabinet. I also came across Gerster out of Ohio that could be cool.

Any other ideas?

gerstner = too limited
I have a beautiful old roll top like that. Came out of my office when we remodeled Mulligans Old Place about 1985. I'd moved it to my moms 'cause I was living in student housing at the U. Mom instantly adopted it, and fortunately I'm still waiting.View attachment 267495 I love the idea of a beautiful cabinet but I'm a plastic box guy for now. Above are some of mine with others on the floor, etc. Affordable and I like to just be able to see stuff I'm looking for (i.e. not in a wooden drawer) and if it all comes tumbling down on me, it's just plastic boxes full of feathers/fur. A key point for me is the boxes are tightly sealed so less critter risk, a big wood cabinet needs to be bug proof just in case. I've had all my previous materials ruined by storing them in a lovely wooden carry case built by by grandfather...
I'll be keen to see what you end up with Swimmy, a fashion trend setter as always...
