I find that these are great for holding larger pieces and the price is reasonable.
I made my large sweat box for items like this. I also have a smaller one.
Here are a few photos of my set up.
I use a large shallow plastic storage container with a couple of smaller containers to keep the item out of the water.
I put a cut to size an egg crate light defuser found at the home supply house that carry flouresent lights.
Next I add about an inch of warm water.
Next comes a piece of linen to lay the patient on, it helps in lifting when the item is damp and fragile.
I put the lid back on and let rest for about eight hours.
When I remove the item I place it on blotter paper that sits on top of plexie glass, another layer of blotter paper and plexie glass with a weight. Let it sit over night and this is the result. Nice and flat for easy desplay.

Better than my design, I'm cheap all materials needed are found in my little workshop (shop of horrors).
Well done sir.
Thank You

This is a very nice solution and useful explanation of how to duplicate the solution!

I received a large stock certiicate from 1899, David, yesterday. It was in fine shape but did need to be flattened out for me to mount in a presentation book.
