This is a similar idea: coin pages using 2×2 clear plastic bags. You need the plastic bags because otherwise the counters slide out. The counter density is higher, and you don't have to make the fancy labels because the counters are visible.I may be coming around to the idea of coin envelopes and trading card binder sheets as the way to store vehicles and ordnance.
The only think I'll add is that the plastic baggies are floppy and harder to get into the pockets. I have some popsicle sticks (frequently sold as "craft sticks") that I use to push them in and out.JR, that's an interesting idea, I'll look into that as well, I'm still early in the process and am still "prototyping" it.
Not much in most of mine. But I put items from multiple nationalities in one box and select mostly by color.There's a fair amount of air in a Plano system (which is what I currently have) as well.

And anyone who uses these and goes to ASLOK owes me a beer. I'll get to work on the CdGII stuff once I get the module in my hands.Awesome, I'll definitely check 'em out.
I made the coin envelopes for my travel kit. Since I usually fly to tournaments (primarily ASLOK) weight was my top consideration. I wanted to keep the checked bags under 50 lbs.I found these containers at the container store. They look very usable for coin envelopes and cheap $$-wise.

Thanks for posting the links for the coin envelope boxes. I've been switching over to coin envelopes, using the info from Texas ASL club (cheers as it is great!). I have been having a hard time finding a good container for the coin envelopes, though. I just wish those boxes were plastic to make it waterproof.I made the coin envelopes for my travel kit.

I use this for the boards (thanks Pleva). It is pretty full. I'm behind in my purchases and I'm hoping all the new boards will still fit. I might need to go with something else:

And these for the coin envelopes. 800 count for big nationalities and 400 count for small ones. Germans have some spill over into the Americans (guns).

I was fortunate during my travel days to win a $1000 gift certificate from Briggs and Riley for completing a survey after I bought a piece of luggage and I got a really nice rolling duffel to hold coin envelopes, infantry, and misc stuff.
I’m looking for waterproof boxes myself but I’ve had no luck. Post a link if you find something and don’t forget to buy me a beer at aslok.Thanks for posting the links for the coin envelope boxes.
