Fixing a card case

Postby crispy » Dec 1st, '06, 08:41



I need to open the other end of a card case then reseal it shortly afterwards, I only need to do it the once to each case.
Can anybody suggest a way in which the box will not be damaged and also suggest a glue type to reseal it with.
Many Thanks in advance.

Depending on when, why, and how you need to get in......I take a hair dryer to the label end and a exacto-knife.....as it warms, it will basically loosen the glue and lift up.....can easily be reasealed right away, and as it cools, the glue on the label will reset itself

Sorry guys I realise that its not very clear what I needed from my post ,

I have just found out that Cards4magic do flat pack card cases which will fit the need nicely. I need to be able punch a hole on the box near the end that does not open. The punch cannot get in close enough to the end when it is closed hence why I need to open it.
Cheers again
