Got my 1/4 of a gross of string sets into zip baggies and the bags are hanging on a wall hook. I don't know if this is the best way to store them. What are you other bulk purchasers doing for storage? Bags, tubes, throw 'em in a heap in the corner, what?

Dan, I've done the baggie approach like you pictured above.
Worked alright, though I think I'll go buy some PVC tubing...
more for organizational ease than anything else.
