				<title>A new dice tray maker is born</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I got tired of dice hitting my models, flying off the table and generally being a nuisance. I had seen a few video battle reports with dice trays in them, so I went online and found a few on amazon and other sites with prices ranging from $60 up to $200.<br /> <br /> I figured I could make one that was just as good (if not better) for a lot less money. <br /> <br /> I started by looking at just about every hobby store I could think of to find a box that was suitable. I found a metric ton of balsa wood junk or ridiculously priced shadow boxes that were the right size but $30 a piece for just the wood. <br /> <br /> I finally found a company that made the right tray at the right price. It's hard wood and made in <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(544);'>AL</span>. <br /> <br /> Then it was on to felt.... there are so many choices, thicknesses, grains. It's a bit mind boggling.  I found a great company in NJ that makes the felt and had them cut it for me. <br /> <br /> Next it was time to customize it. I figured, hey my wife cuts vinyl signs for a living so I asked if she could cut custom logo's and names on the side, and my dice trays were born. <br /> <br /> Here is what I am able to do, this tray was made for Menoth John, it's 9 inches by 9 inches with 2 inch high sides. <br /> <br /> I mad them 9"x9" so that they have enough room to role casino dice and have a large enough tray to carry cards, dice, tokens etc between tables. <br /> <br /> I was able to get the price down to $35 + shipping (so 39.95 total). <br /> <br /> So please leave me some feedback, Check out the webstore and let me know if this works for you or if I'm missing something huge and obvious. <br /> <br /> <img src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V9qQVbg4yno/VrfKhr2AKII/AAAAAAAACaY/OkWaPrmyaAY/s1600/MenothJohn%2527s%2BBoxs-3.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <img src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ibrYLGW3e3M/VrfKhZoCBII/AAAAAAAACaU/L_cwy9BtaxE/s1600/MenothJohn%2527s%2BBoxs-2.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> <img src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rnHwfhk9jtM/VrfKhuKQ1oI/AAAAAAAACac/dZpXIUapfv4/s1600/MenothJohn%2527s%2BBoxs-1.jpg" border="0" /><br /> <br /> So please check it out and let me know what you think!]]></description>
