Storage Case

[elaine77]

Do we have a favorite case provider? I finally have enough vials to need a storage case and would like to spend at Etsy as opposed to a giant retailer. Any recs?

I'm not sure if gpa is still selling on Etsy (or at all), and I've been away from things long enough to have no idea who the current go-to for cases, but hopefully there will be some good suggestions since cases don't seem to get near the attention and conversation that they used to!

Gpa is Tier3d on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/Tier3DPrinting

Whatever you do please don’t buy from “Vial Vault” on Etsy. I used to have a little 3d printing biz that was called Vial Vaults and that bastard decided to capitalize on my hard-earned reputation by stealing my name and selling garbage.

I bought 2 cases directly off R23D Printing's website. I bought one that holds 25 vials for my freezer and one that holds 4 vials for travel. Both fine quality and fast shipping.

I have no idea what's recommended, but I had a Pelican 1120 on hand, so I pulled out most of the foam center, put a couple dessicant packs on either side, and put a couple 10 packs of vials in the middle, tossed it in the freezer. Theoretically seems like it should work fine.

Been reading on what to do to avoid condensation issues when taking it out, and seems like if I let it come to room temp for an hour or so before opening, that should help. I'm considering using a smaller secondary case to store maybe ~3 months worth so that I wouldn't have to open the 1120 as often.
