Adam,
Check Jameco Electronics (www.jameco.com). They have a small anti static
"Bug Box" available in different configurations for different components.
Regards,
Tom

    Adam -

    McMaster-Carr < www.mcmaster.com >has a great selection of conductive
    drawers and cabinets. I use their multi-drawer conductive cabinets with 60
    drawers in a steel frame attached to a 3-ft grounding cable. Mine are
    attached to the wall for seismic reasons. They have a 3392 page catalog you
    might want to request.

    Warning: off topic. Kinda.

    Does anyone know where you can buy anti-static parts boxes? I'd like
    to keep a bunch of my chips/etc in simple plastic boxes without
    needing the black anti-static foam. Plastic boxes are easy to find,
    but I don't want to go without the static protection. I've scoured
    Fry's and DigiKey with no luck. Any suggestions?

    Adam,
    I have anti-static drawer sets and boxes made by Flambeau Products. Sorry,
    I can't remember where I got them.
