I have mine in little boxes (Beaufort ink) and then in a box with little compartments, each labelled with the respective kits.

Alex, on the Beaufort ink website click on 'bushes' in the menu and you will see the telescopic tubes at the bottom of the page.

Some people use those plastic cases usually used for keeping hardware, nut, bolts, screws, etc, sorted. Just don't ever drop it when open. When Marla was making lots of pens she went to a crafts store and bought little cases of 7 or 14 compartments usually sold for holding beads. They have individual lids that also had a spring loaded locking bar you pushed from the side to unlock and open. The cool thing about them was that should you drop it, it instantly locked the unopened compartments so the contents wouldn't scatter into unseen corners and creases in the shop. They are like the ones for medication dispensing except they didn't have the days of the week and were translucent plastic, not coloured.

Craftmates was the brand if still around. Found them.
