How dyou store tour balsa strops/ honing equipment?

As the thread asks, How dyou store your balsa strops/ honing equipment?
I’m ready to give ‘the method’ a try. But that involves storing 3 balsa strops plus my 12ich x 3 inch acrylic block for boning on lapping film and my razors too.
Can I ask how you store this stuff? What type of boxes do you use?
 
One guy said he uses a tie box, and that strikes me as pretty smart. Or a shoe box, or some kind of storage/rubbermade type system
 
My balsa strops are in "tie boxes" I bought on Amazon from a bakery supply vendor (go figure). The rest of my supplies (stones for bevel setting and progression, leather block strop, pinning gear, lose scales, diamond pastes, etc.) are in plastic storage bins purchased from Target.
 
240/1k, 2k/5k, 12k, 12k ocean blue, holder, various smaller Nortons, arkansas, carborundums, e-z-lap diamond plate, kamirishi coarse in blue tote, Norton set, some files, sprayer in the cardboard box they were sent in. I can use the lid as a tray and the tub as a soak pan.
