I just posted the same question this morning! :-) One thing i will say is overpad! I will be on the one I decide to make. I bought a really $$$ one on etsy and ended up with a broken lens because the padding was just too thin. I also will be adding something very stiff in the bottom...not like the cardboard that was in this one. I have some hardwood laminate flooring leftover that I'm thinking about using...properly padded that should protect nicely.
