Board game expansions? No box to fit them in? No problem! When the Media Library asked if there was a way to house the board game, Everdell, and its multiple expansions, I said I would be happy to create some sort of custom box. The result? A heavy duty clamshell with a pull out drawer. With some tweaks to the template that we use to build normal clamshells, I crafted one that would fit all the pieces of the original board game and the expansions, separating both the larger pieces, and the smaller tokens. Normally, we cover our clamshells in book cloth, giving it a clean finish, but I decided to cover this clamshell in buckram (a stiffer fabric with greater durability and strength) so that it could survive the wear and tear of everyday use.
