I snapped a few picture of the storage drawers from Target that Aracon mentioned here(http://www.dwarvenforge.com/dwarvenforums/viewtopic.php?id=3110). As he said, they were very near perfect and hold DF very snug. http://www.target.com/Sterilite-7-Drawer-Craft-Cart-White/dp/B000MQ62IG/sr=1-1/qid=1236818542/ref=sr_1_1/179-5141942-2139726?ie=UTF8&frombrowse=0&index=target&rh=k%3A7%20drawer&page=1
The first two pictures shows the whole drawer and cabinet. The DF boxes next to it should give an idication of its size (it was hard for me to image on the Target webpage). Also, it comes without the wheels attached, and I'm leaning towards not putting the wheels on.
The next picture shows the contents of one drawer with just one RoTA set in it. The one after that filled completely up (in this case, with one of the bonus 4-way intersections).
Because there was some play between the top of the DF and the lid, I cut up some of the bubble wrap that came with the individual pieces and put a layer on top of the pieces to give them some cusion to prevent the occasional scratch. The first picture is hard to see (sorry!), but you can make it out beneath the lid in the following one.
Oh, and I thought I'd show how well the DF boxes protect the pieces. When one of the UPS boxes came, there was a large hole in the side of it. Sure enough, whatever punctured it went deep enough that it pushed through the peanuts inside and punched a hole in the white DF box. But the styrofoam in there absorbed it completely without any damage to the pieces.
Thanks again Aracon for the drawer suggestion! I've been looking for something like this for years! Though, yes, my girlfriend also now pokes fun at me for buying a "girl's scrapbook" drawer to hold my "man dolls". 8-)
