Micro Systainers

[atogrf1]

I could use a couple of the micro systainers to hold some smaller stuff in my shop.
Any ideas where I can buy them?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!!!!!

I believe that Lee Valley (leevalley.com) has them.

I saw that, but it says that the special buy has sold out and that they aren't available anymore.  :-(

You could try woodcraft.com but doubt you will have success.  The interior of the micro is basically business card size by 100 business cards high.  Have you looked into the Mini's?  Much more versatile IMHO.

I have, and I do have a few mini's.
I work in a lumberyard and wanted to give them to some co-workers for their desks as business card holders, and a couple for myself for tiny stuff in my shop.

I hope they re-make them or re-release them.  That would be awesome.

I'll make some inquiries for you.

These things are tiny and flimsy. I was about to grab 4 or 5 at Lee Valley but decided against it when I actually held one. More of a gimmick I'd say.

I am pretty sure the original intent was to be business card holders, and not actual storage boxes.  I have a couple , they are  cool, but I do suspect that after time the hinge will not hold up. They also will not hold up  if crushed etc. They are not the same material as a Systainer. They look like Systainers, and the latch  rotates and holds the lid shut like a T-Loc. But they do not latch to each other. The handle is just molded into the plastic and does not flip up.

None of that means they are not handy  for some things besides business cards.

Besides they are just cool  [cool]
