I used to chuck them a few years ago. Now I sell them as a job lot with other junk I don't want. So someone can appreciate it & I get a little battery money.

I love those drawers with small compartments!!
Was it easy to find?
Thanks a lot for the pics, they are great
I lucked in with the Drawers, as I was offered them for free because work was going to dump them (I do yearly detecting displays at work so they knew it would be handy). They used to hold a Library of the old cassette tapes. I then would pull out every other division (see picture), or a number of divisions to make whatever size I wanted. Perfect
PS. Just realised you may have meant the Print Block Drawers I use for buttons etc..(cost me about £10 each off ebay)

You and your father have never ceased to amaze me with your finds this past year Cru!
The Viking Silver Ingot was by far my favourite of your finds this year!
I also like all of the items in this drawer!
Best of luck to you and your Dad in 2012!

I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.
Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.
Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.

I always like to get a complete & ringing Crotal Bell (the drawers didn't picture well, as most the bells are at the back)

What you get out of this hobby depends on what you put into it. You are a good example of that. You had 127 outings in 2011 (I had 27). Congratulations on a great year and good luck in 2012!
