Found some pretty decent ones and added them to the wiki (and the
typesetters cabinet for comparison):

This place has some really really cool cabinets. Fully customizable
drawers in some high quality enclosures. Probably expensive though.

And these ones look good (only $31.91 a piece and free shipping for
orders over $50):
