Best case options for 1050 chips in Justin racks? (1 Viewer)

[ChiTourney]

Reading through this forum and trying to find the best option for my new group buy chips coming in December. I ordered 1,050 chips (I know, weird amount) and was hoping that the Apache 3800 could handle this (and cards and dealer buttons if possible). Will this be too tight? I could put the 50 extra chips and cards and buttons in a small grocery bag if needed, but would like a case mostly for storage, but also the occasional trip to a friend's house. The 4800 seems too big to me.

Whatever you choose, Id split it up into two cases. Lugging around 1k chips is pretty heavy.

Was wondering about that.

One of these for sure!
I have a few left.

I agree that 4800 is overkill, heres mine with 1000 43mm and 200 50mm. I've got a 3800 at home, I fit 8 racks of 43mm very comfortably, I will check to see the 1000 chip fit. They're heavy but I like the sturdy handle and I dont have to worry about transporting, love having everything in one place.

Big fan of versa birdcage for 1000 chips. Much smaller footprint than these other cases.

This is an Apache 3800 with 1000 chips and some custom inserts. You can fit two additional racks and some cards without the inserts.

Gosh, those are wonderful. I've got the acrylic birdcage for the shelf but these are the best for travel. So efficient.

Awesome, thanks. Where are the inserts located? Between the racks and the side of the case or elsewhere? Do you know where you got the inserts?

Is this the one you're referring to? Versa

@Sparkynutz made the inserts. He can make some for you too!

Yes, and they fit the Justin racks perfectly

Ok, I may just ask for that for the holidays.

I have the 4800 for 1,500 chips and it’s just too damn heavy.
I also have the Versa 1,000 and 600 birdcage cases and they’re amazing. With Justin racks, they’re also very easy to pull the bottom racks out of the case.

I think that seals it for me. Versa it is. Thanks!

Nothing crazy I’ll carry two with one in each arm/hand.
