Members kennedyk Posted January 20, 2017 Members Report Posted January 20, 2017 Hi all, I'm new to the forum and curious if someone can help me out with a pattern for a deck box for the game magic the gathering. Quote

Members Tugadude Posted January 20, 2017 Members Report Posted January 20, 2017 Easy enough to reverse engineer. Get some card stock and start folding. But add your own touches to make it your own. Quote

Make a square of wood the dimensions you need the inside to be, take thick cardboard and start folding it around tacking it in place. Make cuts and what not till it looks about right. Take the cardboard off and lay flat and there you go, fine tune it and your good to go. Al Stohlmans books on case making are very out dated "however" are very good for getting the basics figured out that you can apply to other projects. Quote

Members cjartist Posted January 20, 2017 Members Report Posted January 20, 2017 Take a thin piece of cardboard or poster board. Lay your deck box face down near the bottom. Trace it. Without moving the box, tip it up on end, trace. Tip it on its back, trace. Tip it left, trace, etc. Quote
