storage of separating funnels

Good morning all
Looking for ideas on storage of separating funnels. We have only had a few so they have been in a drawer but with an expected big increase in Chemistry students next year, I have purchased a bunch more. They could do with a tidier, safer way to be stored.
Thanks in advance.
Kathryn :)

Do you have any display cabinets ?. We have set ours up 2 or 3 to a stand and put them on display, people always stop and stare.

We had ours in boxes, and bubble wrap, as they did not come out that often, Worked fine.

Photo copy box lids at my old school. We could fit 3 in each from memory. I actually don’t remember seeing any at my current school so I will have to look for them when I’m back on site!

Hi just want to ask, when you store your separating funnels and quick fit glassware, do you grease it before you store it or as you bring it out to use.
just has esters done and no glassware was greased and luckily i have only 1 condensor and flask stuck together. Cheers
