[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 1233074, member: 24633"]Cam, Eagle has the plastic pages for 2x2's and slabs, but I don't recommend either of them. For one thing, they're too danged expensive, and for that kind of money, you'd expect them to last a while.

I still have pages which haven't broken yet, and I use them only for 2x2's and flips because they can be removed easily without putting pressure on the plastic.
