Hmmm, I have the same weakness. My stores are in a pair of see-through Costco vertical clothes bins with four deep and five shallow drawers. Each shallow drawer can hold 70-odd tubes vertically in their JAN boxes. Mounted them on plywood bases with *real* industrial grade rubber wheels so they can be rolled into a corner when not in use. At least now I can find stuff now that I got them out of card-board boxes. Heavy stuff like transformers etc go at the bottom. Homemade cable racks adorn the rear so that all my test cables can hang down like skis.

My area is so small that roll-arounds are the only way to have stuff easily at hand. A short roll-around 4 foot high 19 inch steel rack holds the scope, URM-25D, and various meters.
