cue storage?? well lets segway here....just my two cents
well I don't think any of you guys know or well I haven't said, but I am a classically trained concert cellist---one of those side things
....
anyways any string instrument player will tell you that besides keeping their instrument stored correctly(temp humidity and air pressure) we also are pretty anal about how our bows are stored... keep in mind that the average handmade bow for cellist goes for about $5000...or at least mine did. Most professional players have multiple bows(made of pernambuco wood) in the price range of 10k each. Bow-makers usually store them flat and in pull out shelves. Its a no-no to have them stored any other way. Aside from that they just have de-humidifiers in their storage area to prevent warping.
so I think it would be best to copy what they do... since people have been making bows since ... the 1600's
or at least if I ever get a cue collection going...they will all be laying flat in pull out drawers that have their own environmental controls.
