Whereas in Washington you'll be a wholesaler guaranteed an almost obscene profit these days as supply and demand is now controlled by the state.:eek:

Boise is a great small city, mighty attractive, excellent location, and the place feels really old--unlike western Washington.
I'm not a collector, but as a photographer I need ready access to my lenses and bodies and all the other stuff. I also need to store working prints, catalogs, ancient slides, paperwork etc. About 25 years ago I purchased a locking four level steel lateral file from the Boeing Surplus Store for cheap. Sanded down the rusty spots, sprayed on new paint, and it has served me super well ever since. The thing is about 5.5' tall and 3' wide.
The top three drawers slide out and have a sliding cover which is handy when certain visitors come over. These accommodate my lenses, bodies, and small accessories. The third level handles transparency archives, and the fourth has a rail for old-style files and folders and is long enough for prints.
The whole thing is quite utilitarian, and when covered and locked looks very unsexy, but I like it that way.
