    Thank you, what a great idea using hard cover book to make custom Blu Ray box sets and DVD box sets

    I would love to do this for some of my DVDs and blu rays in my collection. I'll make one for my Friday the 13th collection (all 12 movies, plus the Crystal Lake Memories documentary and the Killer Extras bonus disc from 2004) and most of all, for my copy of the Star Wars despecialized editions (akin to the Definitive Collection Laserdisc box set; only small enough to fit 3 clear Scavano blu ray cases). This video is very helpful and I can't thank you guys enough for inspiration.

    This is great! I want one for my Holic manga because the covers are black with gorgeous artwork and I’m trying to prevent color fading, but I’m probably going to be making this for every single collectibles I own. Thanks for sharing!

      Wow that’s a wonderful idea, but can you suggest something for more than 100 boxes, like I have to deliver my t shirts and I need a good quantity so right now managing it from bluebirdpackaging.com custom boxes company. But would like to know more about it

    • @tricatfilms6136
      @tricatfilms6136 Před 3 lety +1

      From others I've seen, especially the slip sleeve cases you will need a large format printer that allows 100gm paper. You could piece them together kinda like he is doing but not sure how good it would look.

    Is there a way to protect them? I got a box set cover that is peeling and want to keep as close to new

  • @Axl1000
    @Axl1000 Před 2 lety +1

    I need to do this for vinyl records. I own a lot of box sets but there are many bands who have many albums but no box sets and I’d love to house them all in a custom made box but I think it’s gonna be harder due to the 12x12 size and most printers are like 9x14 or whatnot and I need to make a color copy or else it’s gonna look awful.

  • @LittleMountainLion
    @LittleMountainLion Před 7 lety +9

    If you are going to make a box set wouldn't it be better to use archival safe materials to preserve the longevity of your magazines or books. I know when I was a picture framer at Michael's Arts & Crafts we had to use archival safe tape, and acid free materials. Cardboard from old books presents a problem for longevity because they still break down over time due to acid in the papers, and can yellow your collections of nice Make: magazines. Just curious. Good video though.

    Sweet! Im looking to do this for my Season 1 collection of Sword Art Online. Im gonna use some glossy sticky paper to print off this neat design art used for the US limited editions. That way it can match my Season 2 Collectors Edition!

    • @tommydoughty9681
      @tommydoughty9681 Před 4 lety +1

      do you happen to have any pictures of the final product? Im going to make some box sets for my anime that didn't have a limited edition. Was it hard? any tips?

    • @kylephantom4
      @kylephantom4 Před 4 lety +2

      @@tommydoughty9681 unfortunetely it didn't turn out so well due to various things. I do aim to try again though eventually just havent been able to get around to it. Tips would be if you get something printed, probably best go to a professional printer. As for the box itself, I'm still looking into options for that.

    I'm looking to do this for half of my Berserk Manga collection, only issue is, I don't know if this same strategy would apply to that. Seeing as how it would need to house at least 15-20 in each of the sets and hold at least 5-8lbs. I could always try and see what happens...

    NEVER use masking tape for a project that you want to last for a long period of time. The adhesive is not strong and the tape will dry up and peel after only a few years.

    I could use this for my Mark Wahlberg movie collection but the problem is I have a lot of them and the box would be huge. I'd maybe put four movies in each box b/c I already have an aliens box set.

    • @malachi1616
      @malachi1616 Před 9 lety +12

      coondogtheman1234 A better solution for a Mark Wahlberg box set would be to use a trashcan. Simply arrange all of the movies in the trashcan so that they all fit, then walk away.
