The small parts boxes I referenced are additional top cases that come with
the full stack. They have compartments in them that will hold various loose
items. I wanted to buy two more, that will stack on my existing set. Amazon
sells them only as 2 for $70, but I just discovered that Home Depot also
sells them cheaper, and individually for $30 each.
So, since I wanted two more anyway, I just ordered 2 for $60 from Home
Depot w/ free shipping. :)
