Hello. I'm looking for a new portfolio, possilbly of the size 10x12 or something similiar to hold 8.5x11. this is a school portfolio, so it doesn't need to be all fancy smanshy and CHEAP. i need something hard because my last one is soft and very flexible. any ideas as to where i can purchase one el cheapo. what i really want is a sexy ass brushed metal, but plastic would be ok.

You wont fines those metal or aluminum ones cheap. PLus everyone and there dog has one. Build your own, ones that the designer has built themselves have been the coolest and cheapest portfolios around.

Age?
A metal shop in High school, I had my little brother make me one in High School turned out sweet.
College freind in machining or fabrication?
Or call a few places and find out what they would charge, or buy the aluminum or metal cut already and start playing around. I built a nice wood one the other week, but havent decided the direction I am gonna go with it.
