I used to carry an assortment of repair parts in a Plano fishing  
tackle box (I bought it new just for the purpose - so it wasn't like  
it had old fish bait in there).  At the time, I drove a Chevy  
Blazer.  It was very functional for service work.  It can get very  
hot in a Chevy Blazer in the south, even up to about 9 months out of  
the year (it's pretty warm out there today, actually).  Our summer  
heat ruined everything that was in the box.  Other than than, I try  
to not let my tuning forks, mutes and SAT get exposed to extremes.  I  
haven't noticed any damage to the stringing wire supply I've carried  
for probably 15 years.  I keep it in a cheap plastic toolbox from  
Wally World, each individual spool in a "ziploc" with baby powder  
sprinkled inside.
