Cel,
I've had good luck just going to a box company, found through the yellow
pages, to have boxes made to store both slides and blocks. If they don't
have a stock size that works you can have custom work done. I usually had to
buy 200-500 boxes on a custom order and sometimes there was a die charge for
the first order.
