Atom4geVampire's Custom Descent Storage Box (wip)

By Atom4geVampire, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

So this box is sort of finished now, you can see more pictures here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/avu4u7f7rsmmih6/AAC-St8pYw9oZthZT9E3plA7a?dl=0

Now, since a few people have been asking if it was for sale and stuff. If I had a lasercut version made, would you be interested in that?

  • Yes
  • Yes, if if there was a version for sleeved cards
  • No

Yes, sleeved too!

Is there no way to add a poll on this forum by the way?

Yes. Yes. Yes. Abso-effing-lutely. Yes.

Or, just make me one, and I will pay you for it. But, Yes.

To be clear, YES.

Good thing you were extra clear, cause I almost thought you didn't want one ;)

Also, glad to see you're still around as well!

If nothing else, I want a really nice storage solution for this game when I pass it, and all of my other stuff, on to my daughter or grand kids.

So, YES.

And to quote Veruca Salt, "I WANT IT NOW".

I heartily concur! (but no sleeves)

Oh, I thought you were going for Queen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFDcoX7s6rE ;)

@Atom4geVampire , I tried sending you a PM, but apparently you are not setup to receive them.

So, here is what I was going to send:

All kidding aside, if you do not get the response you need to try and make this storage solution available for the masses, I will be very happy to commission you to create a duplicate of what you have already built for yourself. Just give me a dollar amount that covers both materials and your labor time, and I am most certainly in !

Any "sleevers" out here that could help me with some measurements? (and that have all the expansions)

I personally use FFG sleeves green and yellow ones only for Heroes cards do I use third party sleeves... will send you the dimensions this evening if I don't forget ... :)

Ok, maybe let me know those of the third party ones as well (can't make sure it fits every possibility, but I can try)

It would also be nice to know the difference in height between a non-sleeved Act I shop deck and a sleeved Act I shop deck for example

If Felin doesn't get to it first, i can do the measurements as well.

(Yes i'd be interested in a laser cutout version as well :) )

I'm home from work in an hour, the sooner I know the measurements, the faster I can continue work on the redesign :P

Luky you.. I'm yet at work and with traffic jam not sure I will be home in one hour !! :(

So
Little cards (shop, hero class, etc..)
naked dimensions : 40,7x63,1 mm
sleeved dimensions : 44x67 mm


Big cards (monsters, OL cards, etc..)
naked dimensions : 56,6x88,4 mm
sleeved dimensions : 59,2x93,1 mm


Hero cards
naked dimensions : 102x127 mm
sleeved dimensions : 104,2x128,3 mm

For info my hero sleeves are from Swan:

Last thing to notice, I already found that from one sleeve pack to another sometimes theres is a difference.. so perhaps highter my sleeved dimensions by at least 1 mm (hight and width) to avoid these types of drawbacks !

Thanks, an could you measure, approximately, what the height of the Act I shop deck is when sleeved? (Normal it seems around 22mm give or take)

Here some images of the measurements i took:

The act 1 shop is slightly squeezed, but not much.

Alright! It does seem to add up then, all that extra plastic :)

Here is a random wip shot from 3ds max :P

I'm adding some improvements to the box as well, based on some grievances I had with my original design.

Maybe I should start a Kickstarter or something

Yep, and these are cards which has been sleeved quite a while ago.
I remember when it was freshly sleeved, the stack was a lot higher.
I guess taking a factor of 2 against the unsleeved cards might be safe.
Do you also need measurements of other stacks? For me the monsters act1/2 stacks always were almost too big to fit into my current storage solution.

I confirm..
But with my 67 Act I shop card unless and try to 'compress' at maximum I don't obtain the 33 mm that Psymia obtains ?
at max I have 33,5 and I would advise at least 38 mm to have a small margin
to compare the height of the pile without 'compression' is 40,8 mm
