Default those big plastic tool cases.....

I have, over the years, accumulated quite a collection of power hand tools,
each arriving in its own molded, form fitting case. Problem is, where to
store all of this. I am building a shop, and elected to store these tools
in drawers or on shelves that are sized to fit the tool, and not the case,
as I have run out of room, especially for the gartgantuan cases like my
Milwaukee cordless circular saw (only comes in a case sized to carry the
complete set of 18V Milw tools). I am planning to toss the cases into the
recycling bin or donate them to someone that could use them.

Question: How do you store these tools and their cases? Am I messing up by
tossing the cases?



For the stuff that I know is going to "travel" from time to time, I keep
the cases stored on a high shelf in the shop (10' ceiling). For the rest
I just store the cases up in the attic of the shop just in case I ever
need them or if I want to sell it.
