Do you have a dollar store around? They have plenty of things I've used for
housings. Also, Christmas time is a good time to pick up those cookie tins,
I use them for shielding, they cut really easy with snips. They also make
good waterproof compartments.
For your tower however, check Ebay, Hoffmann boxes are really cheap used.

Tubes? Howard and I are talking about rectangular storage tubs, with lids
that have latches at both ends. Generally, the tubs are translucent white,
while the lids are various solid colors - my current ones are green.
