10½ W × 6⅜ D × 8½ H in
Published dimensions, not our measurements.
Akro-Mils 10116 · black, 16 drawers
16 small drawers; a compact option for a limited set of part categories.
Know the limits
The source sheet and rounded retailer dimensions differ. Allow clearance, verify your exact unit, and measure drawer travel separately. Not a latched carrying case.
Before you choose
Count categories before choosing drawer count. Included dividers do not mean every drawer can be subdivided.

Drawers
20 W × 6⅜ D × 15¹³⁄₁₆ H in
Published dimensions, not our measurements.
Akro-Mils 10144 · black, 44 drawers
32 small and 12 large drawers, for a mixed collection of dry parts.
Know the limits
Wider and taller than the 16-drawer cabinet. Closed depth is not operating depth. Check the selected variant and mounting instructions; no load or stability test is claimed.
Before you choose
Use a paper footprint before sacrificing work area. A large drawer count cannot tell you whether your longest item fits.

Portable boxes
13⅛ L × 7⅝ W × 4½ H in · per box
Published dimensions, not our measurements.
Sterilite 1805 Large FlipTop · clear
An attached-lid box for grouping one project's dry supplies. The linked Amazon listing is a SIX-PACK, not a single box.
Know the limits
These are exterior dimensions, not usable interior space. Check lid swing and the assembled project's height. No waterproof, protective transport or chemical-storage rating is claimed.
Before you choose
Start with one container you already own. A multipack is unnecessary if only one project needs a home.

OLFA FCM-12x17 folding cutting mat
The manufacturer describes a folding mat for rotary and fixed-blade knives. Useful to investigate when flat storage space is limited.
Know the limits
We have not tested fold flatness, cutting feel or durability. Confirm actual outer size and folded dimensions. A verified Amazon product link is not available here, so this entry links only to the manufacturer.
Before you choose
A foldable design is a specific product feature, not permission to fold an ordinary mat.
