As a cost saving measure, if you need enclosures on the cheap you can get electrical boxes like this one for less than half the price of a Hammond box. Available online and at pretty much every big box home store anywhere. Not pretty but they'll take some abuse.
Also check out cheap cap and resistor sets on Amazon like these and these if you want to go bulk (just examples, not a specific endorsement of products - check around to see what works for you). You'll end up with odd values you don't need and probably more of some than you'll use but it's a decent way to just bulk up on a bit of everything for the first go around. Easier than hand selecting lots of individual components.
I hate to say it bro, but you're going to hate those thing once they're full. I've already gone from a tangled mess where I can normally find resistor values in a minute or two, to spending 2-5 minutes reading the drawers trying to find the resistor.
But I've thrown these cabinets away already, the REAL solution is a resistor book! But you gotta make them yourself, so instead get a box: http://www.amazon.com/E-Projects-570-Piece-Capacitor-Values/dp/B00CQOM1IC/ref=pd_sim_indust_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0BJH45V3Y7Z375GZJSS9
