[QUOTE="Redward, post: 531796, member: 11980"] HI Mini99 I used a 2.5mm corrugated card - near colour match to original box (you'll never see it so up to you). Corrugated gives a bit more flexibility but you could use a thinner, denser card. I don't think its necessary to use a Ph neutral card as the risk of yellowing through the card over time is negligible to non-existent I'd say. But you can get this if you're especially cautious with a rarer box. You have to cut to allow for folds and so that it doesn't disrupt the flaps. I wanted to do a video diary type thing to show but didn't get round to it. Maybe I can do that if anyone wants to donate a knackered box! (its always going to be the mini-rig radar laser cannon haha) [/QUOTE]
