Here's a seasonal hint that might be useful to some of you. By now, most of my vintage/classic smaller parts parts are stored in the light wood boxes in which Clementine "tangerines" are sold. They're big enough for a small pile of derailleurs or crank arms or bottom brackets or ???. They stack ok up to double height, becuase the corner pieces extend upward for shipping. I just put them on wooden shelves in the shop. When a box gets too full, its contents get divided into subclasses.
Around here, specials on Clementines are about $5/box. They're coming into season now. Give 'em to friends & kin -- but be sure to get the boxes back. :-)
