Default How do you store H Mill cutters?

If you have a table saw, you could just cut slots in a board such that the
cutters would fit into the slots and have whatever's remaining be the
spacer. To create both sides of the box, just cut your slotted board down
its length. Kinda like one of them CD racks..

In fact, you can get those CD cases cheap/free at some CD stores (it won't
have the plastic insert that holds the CD). Just slip your smaller cutters
into those cases and the cases into some CD rack (Saturday morning garage
sale).

Not a bad idea, making up such a rack. Im afraid the plastic CD racks
probably wouldn't hold a hundred pounds of side cutting staggered
tooth cutters though..and the slab mills..they are a bit more
problematic. Think of a 10 lb razor sharp beer can G

One of the folks here was extremely kind to me, and Im now the proud
owner of about 150 pounds of various horizontal milling cutters, from
form cutters to slab mills. Ive got cutters till Doomsday and a bit
beyond G

Now this begs the question..whats the best way to store these in a
fashion that is easy to pick out a cutter and use, but protects them
from each other? Space limitations are the killer, as in any shop.

Anyone have any nifty ways to suggest?
