Mike, I'm very familiar with that wooden case that you use for meteorites. It's in fact a machinist's tool box. They are also made of metal and are high quality.

Central Standard Time Subj: Re: [meteorite-list] Labeling specimens Hi GeoZay and List, Here is a semi-recent photo showing the cabinet and some of the jars and rikers. Some of these specimens have been sold/traded and some have been moved into the cabinet shown. It is not the biggest cabinet, but with careful use of space, I have managed to cram a lot into it. Larger cabinets get very very expensive. I'd love a bigger one, but I need to get lucky and find some old relic at a thrift store or rummage sale. http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj24/Meteoritethrower/Meteorites/The%20Collection/met-wall-1.jpg Here is one of the small drawers with micros - http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj24/Meteoritethrower/Meteorites/Gallery/micro-drawer.jpg Here is a photo showing some of micromounts and crumb collections in labelled glass vials. This portion of my collection has grown recently and has outgrown this wall rack. http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj24/Meteoritethrower/bottles.jpg Best regards, MikeG On 2/26/10, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > >>>I keep the majority of my collection inside a wood mineral cabinet > that has many shallow drawers, and each drawer has a series of > moveable compartments which I have lined with batting similar to what > you see in Riker boxes.
