Cheap cap and IR filter for leadlight

[stevetexas]

I can't take credit for this idea, but I saw in a post that some bright guy used a flip top toothpaste lid to serve as a dust cap for his leadlight. I took this idea a step further and placed the IR filter (http://www.optics-online.com/IRC.asp?PN=IRC21-12R) into the lid and now I have a dust cap, IR filter, and lid for my leadlights.
