Mini DV tape storage

[mr2mk1g 10]

Anyone know of somewhere that I can get a set of mini DV storage draws so I have somewhere to archive all my old tapes? The only one's I've found are a set of HAMA draws holding 15 tapes which look terrible... and I've seen HAMA products before and wont touch them - ever.

Any leads?

Cheers

I just use those plastic storage boxes. Keeps the tapes clean and doesn't cost alot of dough.

no doubt. Keep them out of the sun, away from the animals, and they're archived IMHO. Not to mention, by the time you get any significant amount of tapes archived on a rack system, your walls will be chock full o' racks. The other reason (and more importantly IMO, is that you can fit all kinds of media in the cheap target boxes--DVD, CD, VHS, DigBeta, etc. Keep all the media for one project in a single container or two, clearly label it, and you're better off (if you're a ADD kid like me).

Cheers guys. Saw the racks but don't like them - would rather keep my walls clear. The thing I was after was a set of draws. Maplins (uk electricals store) was selling a great set that held 20 for a fiver (plenty cheap enough) but they discontinued them. Just wondered if anyone had a lead on some similar draws.

I've got racks and I just stack them. Between that and the clear plastic boxes that takes care of me.
