I made a few of these for cards I keep in my safe. Made out of 1/8" teak plywood with a piece of felt laying in the bottom. They are light and fit graded and the submission size Cardsavers perfectly. Think balsa wood with teak veneer. I just had it leftover from another project. Literally made in 10 minutes. Glued together with Gorilla glue and no nails.
Dimensions are 8.75"L x 3.75"W x 3.5H
I wanted to be able to see the flip of the graded cards and be able to flip through the others without taking them out of the box.
But, I was thinking about making some full depth boxes out of a lightweight plexiglass. I'll post when I get one made to show what I'm talking about.
I'll probably build them with 2 or three sections, 11.75" deep so they fit on a normal size shelf. If I make them 5.75" tall, I wouldn't need to build a lid. They would just stack on top of each other.
