do you use the Su containers or do you have some other clever or homeade item that you use to store them in.I made a wheel tree.same idea as a mug tree.I found some scrap wood in my husbands workshop.spaced and marked the widgh for each wheel then I had my dad drill out the holes.I went to a hardware store and fond some round woden dowels the same size that the wheel fits on.Then I glued them into the holes.very easy to make and inexpensive it can fit a ton of wheels on it. both larger ones and smaller ones.sorry no picture to add here but same idea as a mug tree.

It's someone who buys stamps they didn't normally like at first,only to see it in Split Coast Stampers gallery in a different perspective.
Up until last week they were all in a big drawer andI had to dig through them to find the one I wanted.
I HIGHLY recommend the SU wheel storage.. for both size.. both are AWESOME I love them and will be showing them at my next work shop. I do not have one complaint about them! Actually when I got them I thought I was only getting one of each but they come in sets of two.. I didn't read the fine print.
THey are awesome and a GREAT way to store your wheels! I actually have two more sets coming today!

Even though I don't have many wheels, I bought the SU storage boxes and LOVE them! I keep my wheels & ink in one and I am finding I use them more now than I ever did!
Just got the new wheel storage case. Love it. Now I can see which wheels I have. I had been keeping them in a Pringles can. It's the perfect size, but I couldn't see them and the one I wanted was always on the bottom of the can. And as Cori said, you get two per package so it's a good deal.

I use to store my wheels in a pringles container (7 fit stacked inside one container). I used a piece of copy paper and wheeled what was inside each can. I liked that for a while but I started to get lazy and not wheel the outside of the can, so then I forgot what I owned. I now own the SU containers and I LOVE THEM - you can see the wheels so easily and already, I've been reminded of using one because they're sitting on the edge of my desk and I can see them so well.
I also accidentally ordered twice as many as I needed (missed the fine print too). So to all of you future orderers: each item number has a holder for 20 wheels (two containers hold 10 each).
I use the a sterile desktop 3-drawer holder. I believe it's the medium sized one. It holds about 12 regular wheels in one of the drawers, then 6 large wheels in a drawer and I have the handles in the other drawer. This works for me.

Seriously - I was just about the post the exact same thing, nearly word for word.
Well...except the part about finally ordering the SU containers. I haven't worked up to that part yet - I just don't use my wheels. :rolleyes:
