Ah, yeah, didn't notice the "dust free" requirement. If dust-free is the goal, then sealed containers are important, so custom-made acrylic boxes are probably your best bet.
another group that is great for custom acrylic work is salt-water aquarium shops. they often have the ability to custom craft acrylic boxes, and yours should be cheaper since you dont need water-tight nor water-thick construction.
