So, I printed out the box and started fooling around with different stacking patterns-- I think I managed to fit all three stashes in the box, as well as all three dice. Here's a picture of my solution.

For ease in counting (in case I messed up) here's the same setup with the overlapping pyramids off to the side.

It's a bit snug, but I don't think I warped the box out of shape and the lid still fits on. Now I just need a cool sticker to throw on the lid so it doesn't look like all my other paper game boxes.

I've had a design for this sitting around, but I've been too busy
doing other stuff to write up a good instruction set.

The design is somewhat different from the one the Looneys use,
but close enough that if you pull a Looney box apart, you can
figure this one out easily.

A note on the divider (page 3) if you're making a box for Fluxx
size cards, remove the extra strip from the right edge and leave
it on the left. If you're making a box for Aquarius size cards,
remove the extra strip from the left edge and leave it on the
right.
