That would be fun!

Of course, weight would also become an issue. I can testify that the cardboard boxes get seriously heavy with all that heavy duty plastic inside, and that’s with relatively lightweight cardboard.

If you're budget conscious, these do the trick and they're absolutely FREE* at the supermarket...

*Correction, they now cost ten cents a piece (or more) at your local grocery store. Frickin' rip off.

Not of these are heavy. The 4 cost me under $10. I intend to make a few for my graded stuff that will fit in another drawer.

I've seen this as well storing nothing but slabbed cards. Holds a ton and you can easily flip through them and put a label in between to separate sets or players.

You'd need to check it out in advance, but old library card catalogues are the perfect storage mechanism in my view. Just a sharp look that incorporates the vintage feel.

(Make sure the drawers are properly sized and metal inserts removed.
