I've been looking for chip tubes that hold 43mm chips for my tourney starting stacks. Ran across these tubes at Menards in the tool section. They are 2" x 6". I measured the ID at 1 15/16". Tube shown is a 12/12/5/6 = 10k starting stack. I loaded it all the way up and it holds 47 chips. The lid is quite deep so you could easily fit 50-52 chips. Company is viewtainer and they sell 4" and 7.75" tubes as well. 6" tubes were $2.99 at Menards and looks like $4.09 on the website. The plastic is very soft so no concerns about damaging the chips when you slide them in. I've been using the standard chip tubes that fit 39mm chips and then just handing the players their 43mm chips. The vinyl label left "sticker glue" so I had to use goo-off. I trialed the label removal at the store and it didn't leave any residue on the one I tried and then I grabbed a different one. Feels pretty sturdy but haven't tried them yet so can't speak to that.
I saw a thread or two about chip tubes, but didn't see any links/references that had readily available chip tubes for 43mm chips. I'm very curious if most If someone has found a cost effective solution please let me know. Will probably pull the trigger on these in 2-3 weeks.
