Tri-fold paper wallet.

This is a modification of theRIAA's paper wallet (http://www.instructables.com/id/Paper-Wallet/). I've modified it to use a Legal (8.5"x14" I believe) sheet of paper (As opposed to letter) and is a tri-fold wallet as opposed to bi-fold. you can write on this wallet, tape it up if it gets ripped and make a new one costing next-to-nothing.
Note: The legal paper is necessary if you want to store cards in this wallet. The cards fit vertically, not horizontally as in a bi-fold. The legal paper is longer, so that there's room for vertical card storage.
Version 2.0: I've added a PDF Template of the wallet. Download the PDF, and print it out on a piece of Legal Paper. Cut along the red lines, fold on the black.

This is good. Last summer I made a trifold out of a Tyvek FedEx envelope. It was barely big enough. I glued it together with fabric glue. The glue has lasted perfectly but the Tyvek material has worn through and needs to be replaced. I made mine from measurements but had to make adjustments and I didn't take notes. Your approach would probably work for me, so thank you for the tutorial.

Where could you find a legal sized piece of Tyvek?

Get an envelope from USPS, FedEX, or UPS. They are larger than legal but you could cut it down.
