I picked these up from Casino Supply https://www.casinosupply.com/collec...ic-poker-chip-rack-and-cover-5-row-100-chip-1
The main draw for me was the lids. More often than not I carry my chips in a tool bag so racks without lids don't work. Until this purchase I'd been using the 4 chamber / 25 chips per chamber plastic boxes. Drawbacks were 25 chips to a chamber vs. 20 to a barrel and, of the 20 such boxes I have, the lids fit with varying degrees of snugness ranging from 'not very' to 'damn'
Outside dimensions are 210 mm x 77 mm. The chambers are 69 mm.
The footprint and the top of the lid are too similar to safely stack one on top of the other unless staggered. Sans lid they stack as you would expect of any other rack.
At 69 mm they accommodate several styles of chip, but not the China Clay 8Vs.
Paulsons and Chipcos fit loosely, Spirit molds fit nice and snug.
Here are pics of some chips I had close at hand in the racks.
Paulsons, a barrel of each. Paulson rack on the left, 69 mm rack on the right:
Chipcos, a barrel of each. Paulson rack on the left, 69 mm rack on the right. Can almost fit a 21st chip into the 69 mm rack:
A barrel of BJ chips loosely seated in a 69 mm rack (a 21st chip is not quite able to squeeze in).
A barrel of Spirit mold chips in a 69 mm rack. Comparatively: as snug as a barrel of Paulsons in a Paulson rack:
Similar to the Spirit molds, a barrel of NexGen series 6000 Pro Classics fit snuggly in the 69 mm rack:
8V China clay. 19 chips seated loosely, chip #20 can't fit in.
