I realized today that I have too much WFRPG stuff to manage, and was planning on making tuckboxes for each of the monster type cards, standees, all of the other cards, etc, when I came up with (I thought) a great idea...

Because there is so much stuff related to a single monster "type" (for example, Beastmen have the Monster Cards, the Action cards for the Monsters, and all of the standees), I developed a template for a "split" tuckbox.

Basically, it's a tuckbox that is the width and height of a standard card (such as the monster or action card), but its depth is actually split into two compartments -- the "front" one is 1/2" deep (holds about 30 cards -- the middle wall is "slotted" to allow easier removal of the cards), and the "back" one is 1" deep (for standees or any other monster-related tokens I'm not thinking of -- it's deep enough to comfortably hold 10 of them, and tall enough to hold a double-stack of the "regular height" ones, such as goblins).

The tuckbox is designed in a way that it can be print on a single 8.5 x 11 piece of cardstock. The constructed box measures 2.25"w x 3.5"h x 1.5"d

I also plan to make smaller ones -- both skinnier (with, two 1/2" compartments), and smaller for the smaller cards (for storing multiple small card sets together, or for storing things like mutation cards with corruption tokens. Things that logically belong together can now easily go together.

In theory, at least with the smaller cards, it wouldn't be impossible to create a template that could have 3 or 4 compartments for keeping certain card types together.

Is there any interest? The reason being is that I would need to create assembly instructions if there is (they're actually really easy to put together, but some instruction is needed).

I also plan to skin them, but that's another thing for another day.

Sounds great! I'd be very interested... Do you have an example?

Good idea!

I am interested, too.

Here's a copy of the back design of the official one (I ripped mine open and scanned the back of it). All you need to do is get the sizes right: gallery.rptools.net/v/contrib/emirikol7/wfrp+char+box.jpg.html

It might be cool to be able to put your own artwork on it for printing or maybe even the summary of basic action or something.

I just went to the bank and got a handful of money bags, then sorted all my cards into a bit of an order and put them in the bags. Works well if you want to set up an encounter and keep all the cards together too. Just thought I'd post this as it seemed relevent

I didn't even know anyone replied to this yet

So, here are a few (unskinned) images:

Since this time, I've skinned several of them, made some adjustments to the templates, and made a bunch of other similar templates for various other uses, including (in sizes, Large refers to cards like career cards, Normal refers to Action-card size, and Small refers to Tactics-card sizes):

• Normal with 2 sections: 1" and 1/2" (pictured)
• Normal with 2 sections: 3/4" and 3/4"
• Normal with 2 sections: 1/2" and 1/2" (these work excellently for splitting up the magic college action cards)
• Large with single section, 3/4" deep (great for separating basic from advanced careers if you print 2 of these)
• Small with 2 sections: 1" and 1"
• Small with 2 sections: 3/4" and 3/4"
• Small with 2 sections: 1/2" and 1/2"
• Small with 3 sections: 3 x 1/2"

These each print on a single piece of 8.5 x 11 cardstock (the only ones that can print double to a sheet are the "Small 2-section 1/2" and 1/2"" ones), and are cut/folded out a single piece.

I'll try to post some pics of some skinned ones soon.

I'm also working on a "split tray" storage box, which will allow you to store tokens like fatigue/stress and stance markers in a box that can also serve as an easy tray during play. I don't think I'm going to get away with "one sheet/one piece" with this one, but I'll let you know.
