Or if one is feeling flush with dollars, you can purchase from Leica, double
ended caps for just this stacking purpose. I'm not sure if they're available
for M lenses but I have several of them for R lenses and have made some as
you explained Jeff. They work very well and help to accommodate far more
lenses in a small case.

The only problem is, the more you stack in this manner the heavy your
shoulder bag becomes. :-(
