Nanuk 910 = 400 chip perfection (3 Viewers)

[IaHawk]

Well, my cases came in but it looks like I’m going to have to return them...

Spoiler: Won’t work for what I was going to do...

340 chips, 2 decks, 1 button. It’s an 8-handed T25 tourney set. Perfect fit.

Most of my cards come in the double deck packs which doesn't fit well in a Nanuk 910. I bought some of these off Amazon and they fit both bridge and poker size decks well.

Love the Nanuk 910s & some great set ups here.

Are there any suggestions please for the best fitting chip racks for these cases? (for 39mm chips).

thanks!

Just a heads up for those interested, the Nanuk branded carrying strap is currently under $15 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003JH7Y8W

Thank you! I ordered a couple

 

[liftapint]

I just ordered 2 of the blue cases ($49/)...I couldn't wait for a better sale. That color looks fantastic.

I guess I better order a label maker to label my cases at the is point -- I have more Nanuk than I can remember what's in them!

edit: Who has a label maker that they love, and would recommend?

I have the blue and red price tracked on camelcamelcamel at $35. I like to track stuff like this that I don't need immediately and get the surprise email that the price has dropped. I have the strap tracked so got the email this morning when it dropped below $15.

What racks are you using?

What racks are you using?

Matsui racks turned on their sides. I use rubber bands to hold them closed.

 

[fishsaybloop]

I’m trying to figure out what to do with my Apache racks. They’re a bit too big as well

Wow it goes edge to edge! No space for the foam?

You could fit foam if you wanted to. With 6 racks it's a bit tight but can fit some. I don't need the extra padding because I just carry them from the car to the place we play. There's foam on the bottom and the top which is plenty of protection the short trip I make.

I only use the two cases for the bigger 1/2 games we play from time to time. The two cases can easily carry 900-1000 chips with two decks of cards and buttons.
Most of the time I carry 700 chips in a Nanuk 920 which has plenty of room for padding.

I have been looking for a case for 700 chips...my preferred cash set breakdown is 700 chips. I have a ton of the Nanuk 910s with 600 chip capacity.

Is the 920 a lot bigger? Bulkier? I really love the streamline size of the 910, but would much prefer a 700-chip size!

 

[toothpic]

It's bigger but also my preferred carry case. Much lighter than the Apache cases. I think the shoulder strap will help a lot.

The Nanuk 920 fully loaded with a 700 chips was 22.8 pounds

Some size comparisons here. It’s bigger and taller

Just moar 910 pr0n. 500 chip plus cards, buttons and chip/card protector.

Howdy....are these style of cases good to go for long term storage of chips or are they more being used for just transport? I ask because I like the concept but would want to use it as both a storage setup and transportation setup.

Anyone have any issues with humidity, moisture or anything that could harm the chips overtime?

Thanks in advance.

They’re probably better suited for storage than most cases! They’re rated to protect sensitive camera and other equipment from dust and (I believe moisture), so they’re definitely up to the task.

Wow! This is the exact setup I've been looking for, what type of chip racks are you using?

 

[BirdCage]

66.7 mm from Spinetti’s work very well - https://spinettisgaming.com/products/chip-tray-clear-acrylic-for-39mm-chips-66-7mm-insert

The Nanuk 910 will hold up to 800 chips.

shoot I placed an order for the 66.7 chipco racks from apache since I was already getting chips from them and they sent me an email saying that the chips I got won't fit the chipco.

Does anyone know if apache chip racks will fit in the nanuk? (500 chips)

 

[horseshoez]

I’ve done a reship in one of these things. Perfect protection for the long trip! It fit 8 racks in Warneke boxes with some cards on the side. Closed just fine and chips were snug.

 

[fishsaybloop]

Wish everyone would ship me chips in Nanuk 910s hahaha

 

[toothpic]

Saw that Nanuk 915 on sale today for 67.99 if you choose black. It's a bit taller so I think you should be able to fit two to trays tall like I do in the 920.

The 910 in black is on say for 48.71

Shoulder strap just arrived today. It seems to be a really good quality item. One problem though (with Amazon). I ordered two and they only sent one! Time to talk to customer support.

 

[Hairy_Crocodile]

I ordered a strap from the beginning when I saw the 910, IMO its the best add on I could have ever bought for it. It definitely is worth it carrying 700 chips in that thing to have the strap

This looks familiar Nothing to see here If I could your honour this was after months and months of buys. Also I’m not at all admitting these even are my chips. lol
