I am looking for size that will accomodate PCI adapter cards from my
PC. I need perhaps four envelopes/bag containers.

Something I've used in a pinch in the past is to wrap the board in
aluminum foil. I first got the idea after receiving static sensitive
semiconductors wrapped in foil. Later man.


MAke sure there is no battery on any board you do this with. Also,
there is a controlled resistance to limit current in the antistatic
bags. If there is a different static voltage between the foil and the
board you can damage it.
