VideoGameFreek #1 Posted January 31, 2003 Hi Everyone, Here's a few pics of a wine crate that I customized to hold my Atari 2600 carts.

oesii #2 Posted January 31, 2003 That wine crate looks nice. When they aren't out I usually store my carts in those clear stackable bins that you can get at Target/Walmart. I can put about 60 carts in each one and I can see what in the bins by the cart's end labels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godzilla #3 Posted January 31, 2003 i always keep mine on display, alpha by company, on a flat shelved wall unit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monzamess #4 Posted January 31, 2003 My vote also goes for the clear boxes. I use Sterilite 24"x16"x6" (guessing). They're the perfect height for Atari carts standing up, with a little extra room for those oddball carts (M-Network etc). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sku_u #5 Posted January 31, 2003 Chalk up another vote for the clear stackables. The clear stackables are great because very little dust will get onto the carts when the boxes are sealed and it's easy to see which boxes hold which games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brad2600 #6 Posted January 31, 2003 Just yesterday I got a wire wine rack from where I work and that's where I store my systems...I have 4 systems all ready to be hooked up and played. As for my games, I have a small media shelf with most of my games on it..except for Genesis games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paralistalon #7 Posted February 1, 2003 I use the Sterilite clear plastic bins, like everyone else. It's the one that the AtariAge site recommended. It has worked excellent! It fits neatly under my bed, holds atleast 80 carts, and all of the games are visible and easy to take out. The only bad thing is that I have just filled my first bin. They don't stay secure unless you have a bunch of them in there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sku_u #8 Posted February 1, 2003 They don't stay secure unless you have a bunch of them in there. You can alleviate that problem by using foam strips wherever carts are not present. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cupcakus #9 Posted February 1, 2003 I keep mine in 8-track carrying cases... as I travel with them quite a bit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BoOchan! #10 Posted February 2, 2003 I Use the Plastic Storage Bins that you can slide under a bed, but I don't of course. They are the perfect size for both Boxes and Carts, and I bouhgt them from a Discount Store called Red Dot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
as_the_gavel_falls #11 Posted February 2, 2003 I cut 14x10x8 boxes in half, each one holds 51 carts (3x17). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
