I have 2 old 50mm Astronomik unmounted narrowband filters from years ago that I thought could be a good fit for my wide field imaging rig. I don't want to buy another filter wheel; I was thinking about a filter drawer, but can't find any that fit. Short of 3D printing, anyone have any suggestions?

This looks like about a $70 solution.

And a few more. Google <filter drawer for 50mm unmounted filters>
