The Baader Stackable Filter Box offers a modular, expandable solution for protecting and organizing your individual astronomy filters. These purpose-built boxes can be attached both laterally and vertically, allowing you to create a completely custom and sturdy storage unit tailored to your exact filter collection.
Unlike fixed cases, the Baader filter box system grows with your collection. Each box securely interlocks with its neighbors, forming a rigid, unified block that prevents your valuable filters from shifting during transport. This allows you to build a storage solution for three filters or thirty, ensuring every piece of glass has a secure home.
Each Baader Stackable Filter Box houses a single filter in its own dedicated drawer, preventing contact and potential damage. The front of each box is designed to be characterized with the filter's name, number, or size, so you can identify and retrieve the exact filter you need in seconds, even in low-light conditions at the telescope.
The boxes are designed to interlock. You can attach them both laterally (side-by-side) and vertically (one on top of the other) to create a stable, multi-unit block that fits your specific needs and storage space.
Yes. The system is designed around the principle of one box per filter. Each filter gets its own protective drawer, ensuring it is isolated from others and easy to access individually.
The primary advantage is modularity. You buy only as many boxes as you need, and you can arrange them in any configuration. This is ideal for imagers whose filter collections change over time, as you can simply add a new box for a new filter without replacing your entire storage case.
The front face of each box is designed to be labeled. You can write or apply a sticker with the filter's details (e.g., "H-alpha," "OIII," "1.25-inch") for quick and easy identification in the dark.
Yes. Once connected, the boxes form a sturdy, single unit that is excellent for transport. You can create a compact block of your most-used filters—for example, an LRGB set plus a narrowband filter—that fits easily into your accessory case for a night of imaging at a dark-sky site.
The system is designed for boxes of the same size to interlock and form a cohesive unit. The ability to connect boxes made for different filter diameters would depend on their external dimensions being compatible.
