I buy the precut from Klingspor. The precut cost more but I’m lazy. I just want to get back to work when I need to change a strip.

I use the Klingspor cut-to-fit boxes. Here's a link to the page where you can pick out what you need:

The ones I buy from Klingspor wind up being Jet branded boxes. There are colored stripes on the back of the abrasive to help you cut the strips the correct length for your sander.
