The covering material is Arbelave buckram bookcloth.

I used a generic acid-free 2.4mm binders grey board. 80pt Davey board would be a good board to use.

The lining paper is 120gsm Italian print.

The lining card is 300gsm (10pt) Bristol card/board.

Any PVA/EVA designed for use with paper is fine as an adhesive. It is a good idea to let boxes dry and out-gas for about a week before storing things in them.
