Poker Chip Boxes (17 Viewers)

Everything Alec makes is amazing. My recommendation is to order without reservation. ;)
I already have a deposit made to save my spot in the queue. Now I need to decide on the specifics.

The pictures of Alec's work and the rave reviews makes it an easy decision to move forward.
 
In a previous thread I showed a 3d render of a potential 1000 chip box. I scaled that down and ended up making a 300 chip box designed for 44mm CPC chips for a member here. I wanted to show that off here as I'm super please with how it came out. This one is designed to mount on the wall, via french cleat, and be taken down easily for showing off a nice a set of chips. I also got to put the laser engraver to work putting the members logo onto the box top! Due to the logo on the lid being a centerpiece, a rectangular shape was desired, so a 6 by 50 layout of chips was chosen. Box is quarter-sawn white oak with a dark brown dye and really shows off some cool ray fleck figuring. Construction on this one is with finger/box joints, but dovetails or keyed miters are an option as well. The interior chip holder is wormy maple. All hardware is solid brass. Let me know what y'all think!

This size is available for $150 plus $25 for engraving. Custom sizes available and lots of options for wood choice and colors available. Would make a fantastic gift for the holidays! But order soon as I'm just a one-man shop and my order queue is filling up fast to be ready in time for holiday delivery.
Your chip boxes are beautiful and inspiring to me. I am into woodworking a little bit and maybe want to do it professionally in the future. Would love to hear your story some time :)
 
No time to share more than this, and it’s killing me. More to come.

Hello, I am looking for a custom box, possibly one that holds as many as 5000 chips? This is for a gift for my husband. I have searched everywhere! Can you let me know if this is something you can do? If so, the price with shipping and the time frame?
Thank you so much!

I'm sure Alec will respond, so I will let him give you all the details. I'm his dad, and the first case he build was for me. It is a large cabinet that holds 4000 chips. He has also made one that will hold 6000 chips. Those larger cabinets are in this thread:
https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/custom-wooden-poker-chip-storage-cabinet-and-trays.58288/

The pics in the first few posts are my cabinet. Later you will see some of the others that he has built and some options for stands to keep them on. On the second page you will see pics for the six drawer cabinet to hold 6000 chips. As you can see, these are all meticulously hand built, so there will be some lead time to design and construct exactly what you want. But once finished, your husband will have an heirloom that he will enjoy for many years, and maybe pass on to one of your kids or a loved one.
 
Please send me a direct message and we can go over what exactly you’re looking for and I can see if I can help. The link my dad shared has several of the larger capacity storage solutions.

@Pokerwife2 will need more posts to send a DM. I think it's 10, but it's been a long time since I "read" the PCF terms of agreement.

Like never. :wtf:
