Wood cases (2 Viewers)

[bpw]

I have a nice playable cash set of Brighton fun nights . Around 762 chips total. Was thinking i wanted a wood case to complement their look .
But i cant seem to find any wood cases that will hold greater than 500 . Any suggestions?

Budget? @alecnetwoodworks makes wonderful custom wood cases. There was another craftsman from Etsy mentioned here recently too that makes nice trays, can’t remember they name tho.

Edit: @Hooptee was the other person I was thinking of.

There are two-tier wooden cases that hold 750-ish.

How's the quality of it? I'd love to have something nice to store chips in that isn't just acrylic racks, and that seems to be the only thing on the retail market. Does it look like it's sturdy enough for the weight of all your chips?

Hi. My word of caution is that I think the top tray rests on the bottom chips.

I had some warping/cracking of chips on bottom stored long term and I assume that’s why.

So ALWAYS make sure the bottom is packed tight. Otherwise it’s a nice display / case.

The one i have has a ledge for the top tray to rest upon . The only complaint i have is the top tray loaded up is hard to lift out . So i came up with this plan, i lay 2 pieces of nice ribbon underneath and use the ends to lift . Check out the pic

And if someone wanted to try and make something like that themselves. How do you do it? by drill? router?

CNC machine and a lot of practice.

aaa CNC, I was thinking more about hand tools

A router with a cove bit and a good jig will do the trick as well.

Oz Woodworking.... that's a name i haven't heard in awhile. He made beautiful pieces. I always regretted not having him make me something.
