Affordable Options for Limit Set Storage (2 Viewers)

[HolySchist848]

Hi guys. I am wondering if anyone has some advice on affordable ways to store about 800 39mm poker chips. Currently I use a crappy cardboard box, but it is not secure obviously. I want to have a better option for travel and storage, mainly because almost no one else in my group has chips, cards, etc., and I end up having to bring my stuff lots of places. Any input helps, thank you!

What would be a good size Apache case for this?

I'd go with the 3800, I can fit 500 chips (5 racks) with some room for cards and cash box in the 2800; I could even fit 600 chips but less room for anything else.

I'll show some photos later tonight.

Apache 3800 case from Harbor Freight and racks from @justincarothers. Plenty of room for accessories!

Justin racks fit great inside the Versa 1,000 chip carrier. Robust enough to travel to any game, from vehicle to table.

Here are some examples of the 3800 set ups.

I second this case but with 800 chips the foam in the lid wont touch the top of the racks to compress and hold them firm. Extra foam would need to be added OR! add 2 more racks

Agreed with the Justin racks, they’re great.

Perfect time to look for a deal, usually on sale for Memorial Day.

If you think you may add on to your limit set with either more workhorse or value chips, you could also consider two 600 chip Versa carriers (I find carrying two of them easier than one of the 1000 chip carriers):

What are those inserts for the dealer buttons and the cards

 

[Timmah]

I paid @Sparkynutz to design those for me.

I only today, randomly decided to try fitting Justin racks in the Versa, and I’m super thrilled about this. Can easily fit 1000 chips. Can compress the foam a bit and get the unit closed. I love the Versa forever more!

You can also put a dealer button on top of the racks and it will stay put. Cut cards fit standing on edge next to racks.
