Simple plastic covers for ft boxes / Einfache Kunststoffabdeckungen für ft-Boxen
I recenly got a storage box 1000 from an used parts batch, but the lid was missing. I don't like my ft parts to gather dust, so I've cut plastic covers out of some archive boxes (made of 2 mm thick corrugated PP). I've also made two small cuts on them so that I can open them more easily. Dimensions are approximately 189 x 128 mm. They look like this:

Hi rubem,
another alternative is corrugated or plain cardboard, but PP will be more permanent of course. If you have access to a 3D-printer, you might find this interesting: viewtopic.php?f=38&t=5904

dt.: Wellpappe geht auch, oder eine 3D-gedruckte Lösung.

Jan, thanks for the link. Congratulations, very nice baseplates, beautifully executed. At first glance I thought they were original ft parts!
But dust will collect through the small holes anyway Perhaps it's time for a large 3-d printed building plate (something like this https://ft-datenbank.de/ft-article/483)

Good idea, dust protection inside the ft boxes is something that's always bothered me too.
Look forward to the next ftPedia!

Google translate and others can translate PDFs up to 10MB, output is an HTLM page w/o images, though. Most ftpedia issues after ca. 2014 are larger than 10MB, so you'd have to split them before translation. I realize this solution is not an ideal one, but might be better than nothing.
