Laptop Box

At work today, the Educational Media Collection had been shut down. A division of the school's A/V unit, which I work for, they basically were a library of 16mm films. The films were transferred to the libraries (for several reasons it made more sense to let them take care of it). The upshot is that the films came out of their mailing boxes, and went elsewhere. This left the mailing boxes in a big pile on the loading dock. I grabbed several:

I plan to line the largest one (on the bottom) with closed-cell polyethylene foam and turn it into a box for my laptop. I love the steampunk aesthetic.

The smaller box is about 2cm too small for my laptop to fit in. I can't wait to get a smaller laptop, because it's a much cooler box, despite having plastic clips rather than metal clasps, and nylon webbing rather than cotton.
