Everyday Carry Dice Box in Tigerwood
Description:
The first of my dice box designs made to carry two sets of standard Chessex style polyhedral dice or sixteen 16mm d6 type dice. Each dice box contains 1/4 laser cut foam in the top and bottom channels to keep your dice in place when the lid is closed. The foam is NOT glued in so that you have the option to remove it if desired. The dice channel openings are 23mm wide and 22mm deep with the lid on top. The pictures represent the species of wood you receive, so expect variations of wood coloring and pattern in every box made.
Material Description:
Goncalo Alves (tigerwood) is an exotic wood from Latin America. Hard and heavy, of course. The fine texture and takes a glass-like finish, and is celebrated for it. While it's difficult to work due to tension in the wood, Goncalo Alves makes a fine lathe wood in addition to being quite durable and weather resistant.
Magnetic Lid:
Each dice box is secured with four rare earth magnets, these magnets are STRONG and will hold the lid in place securely. You will not have to worry about this dice box coming apart in your game bag. Two-finger groves are located on the side of the dice-box to assist with removing the lid. Please take care of placing the lid back on the dice box as the strength of the magnets will make the two halves snap together firmly.
Custom Foam Engraving (see picture above)
An option is available to engrave the foam in the lid with up to 10 characters on each piece.
Size:
Length 7 inches x Width 3 inches

Class Descriptions
Common Wood Class - Domestic wood and wood that is readily available for purchase, or I have enough stock on hand to do 10+ dice boxes.
Uncommon Wood Class - Exotic woods and woods that are purchased in small quantity due to the cost of the raw material
Rare Wood Class - Exotic woods where raw material cost makes it hard to source or wood that is very hard to obtain.
Ultra Rare Wood Class - This is reserved for the rarest of the woods and unique one-off creations. Less than 5% of the dice boxes I plan to make will be in this class.
Finish
All dice boxes are finished with multiple coats of a natural oil wood finish, and hand waxed and buffed. I do not stain any of my wood, and I think the natural beauty of each wood species should be presented as-is.
Dice Box Care:
Your dice box should give you years of trouble-free service. Should you want to keep your dice box in that showroom-new look, I recommend "Howards Feed - N - Wax Wood Conditioner," which can be found in most blue and orange hardware stores or online at amazon.
