Just wanted to thank you for your amazing videos!
That's so nice. Thanks for letting us know. Means a lot!
I’m amazed at how simple an idea this is. I love it! Definitely a nice alternative to a bunch of plastic baggies, and doesn’t require a bowl to put the tokens in while you play. There’s definitely a few games that could do with this, and there’s nothing stopping us from making custom deck boxes either!
Right! It was so simple and very useful! And custom deck boxes is a really good idea 😎
Thanks for the video it was super helpful, and I've already made a handful of trays. I had some initial issues with printing and images not scaling correctly, so to save other people in a similar boat a couple steps, you made need to turn scaling off or set it to 100% in print settings.
Cool, I will go make some this weekend. Great style of videos and as someone living in norway it's nice to know I'll probably be able to get the materials you guys use :)
Happy to know that our videos are useful. Good luck and happy gaming! 😃
The boxes work very well with large bits and bobs like Everdell as shown. But they do have a weak point. They don't hold cardboard chits well like the ones from Quacks; they find a way to slide out. The best type I've found were lock tab ones, and the best example I can think of that uses those is Gutenberg.
Good point! You're right that this style of box is better for storing larger game pieces :)
For cardboard chits you’d probably want a lidded box rather than a sleeved one.
Where are you from in the world? I can’t place your accent.
