The only bummer about building this set is that there wasn't enough room for the domino box. The Tree of Gondor on the dominos is great, but having them in the box is what really sets it off...check this thing out.

What kind of case is that?

https://www.amazon.com/Walnut-Woode...fix=300+chip+walnut+poker+case,aps,120&sr=8-2

I like the case quite a bit...the only down side is that the wooden trays that are supposed to hold 25 chip barrels actually hold 26 and even then the barrel isn't held tightly. Makes for a mess when you hold the case by the handle vertically. My solution was to put a chip spacer on either side...but even that took some work. I have spacers from Amazon that are a bit too thick, and I also have thinner spacers from KeyWest. Most the barrels have 2 keywest spacers to keep it tight...a couple of the barrels have 1 keywest and 1 amazon because either variance in the chips or in the chip holders, not sure which. Also, depending on where you store the thing the stain/finish gets scratched up on the resting surface...so I bought some small adhesive rubber feet.
 
*to clarify...barrels of 25 chips plus a spacer on either side. Putting 26 chips made it loose but the gap was too small to fit any spacers.
 
Had a nice series of mail days I’m consolidating into one post.

Loved the dark gray base Ambassador Plaza 100s and was able to find 50 more from @chicubs1988. Thanks, Nathan!

I also reached out to @BlueMerle to see if he had more and he sent me 5 chips for free! Much appreciated, Mike!

Was also looking for some more King Baccarat 25s and @Gear hooked me up with 13 of them. Just need 7 more to fill that last barrel. Thanks, Chris!

Got a gorgeous ES cash set from @Senzrock. I’ve always been in the fence with this set but after a good amount of wine and a nice price I said what the hell. Just need some more barrels of 25 and 100 to get these bad boys in play. Thanks, Max!

Last but certainly not least, @ReallyGoodUsername helped me with the last handful of Nevada Hotel 5s to fill that last rack. I forgot to take a picture of those but it was enough so that I would have a single spare just in case any get lost. Thanks, Tom!
