I'm not 100% sure of this, but I think that stereo
cards are pretty much
the same size as IBM punch cards. If this is correct, I'll bet there are
hundreds (maybe thousands) of IBM punch card cabinets, of varying sizes,
for varying numbers of cards, that could be had, at who knows what price.

Try not to be to scared.... :^) I actually have a card punch and reader, so grabbing a
ruler, they're 7 3/8's x 3 1/4 inches. Unfortunately while I've got a punch,
reader, and a few blank cards, I don't have any cabinets. The person I got the reader
from wasn't about to give up his cabinets (or blank cards).
This might be an excellent idea. Unfortunately as I recall the drawers are flush with the
cards. I've just posted a question to a mailing list where there are people that
should know the exact dimensions of the drawers.
