Having a boring shift at work with nothing to do, I decided to catalog my calls in case something happened to them or me. You don't realize how much money you get tied up in calls just by buying a few a year. I picked up these cases to store the calls and was able to double stack the box call case and the trumpets without them rubbing on one another and I put a detailed listing in each box listing the maker. I have a couple more pots and some scratch boxes on order to add to them.
Anyway, here's a couple of pics that I took in the process.

They all look great. I do not have that many but here are a few.
Wonderful sounding Sumac and Osage Orange Mighty Hen scratch box from Tim Fralick Custom Calls, custom made long box by Russell Beard that Cut N Run was kind enough to give me, a Black palm slate that I bought from ChainReactionGC and a Spalted Maple with green slate from Mac Calls. All wonderful sounding calls that sound much better than I do.
Er those cases are sweet did you just cut out the sections for each call I never thought of that but after noticing scratches on a gorgeous longbox this weekend I think I need something for my calls during travel Going to have to buy some cases like yours

I got the idea from a thread on here.
The foam is made of small squares that you pull out the ones that you need and leave the rest.
Here is where I got mine, they have all sizes.
