o.k. so here is the start of the second case, the first case which will house 21 coins, is finished but I will be updating the lid on that.

In the design for this case it will hold 12 coins(as requested), it has finger slots to remove the coins (as requested), and the coin slots are all lined (as requested).

Unfortunately there is no way to include the certificates in the case, as the cards are to large,If they were the size of the new cards it wouldn't be a problem, the lid for this case will have the plexiglass in the lid as opposed to on top of the case,.. as always I appreciate any encouragement, or criticism, thanks in advance for your time and help. I am giving myself approximately 1 month to have 2 final proto-types ready to go.

Well, really well done so far

Will be interesting to see the finalized prototype, with the lid.
Coin slots are lined where, at the bottom or also from the sides?

No unnecessary words needed, just will repeat:

Great work, I love it when people put so much effort into a craft. Makes the product so much more meaningful to own. Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Silverwolf, I am also working on a custom case. What materials are you using? Size, thickness, veneer plywood or hardwood?

I keep trying to design a case that can hold the cards but due to the large size of the first couple it is very difficult, ie standard lumber sizes.

I will post some pictures once I have mine in a couple of days.

This looks great, very well done and I can see that you've put a lot of hard work into this.

One question, were you thinking of adding a "leg" to the bottom of the case near the top to prop up the display case? In the pictures it appears you put it on an angle for a better picture, if the final case was able to have the top at an angle it would give the same visual as the pictures. Just an idea, again a great case with or without this.

silveroid- yes it is lined on sides and bottom.
barriecarson- my wood of choice is poplar(nice grain patterns)i cut the holes in one piece and then glue it to another piece.

-and my goal is to make some of the finished products available for members at some point.

I would definitely be an interested buyer. Great work.

Is there a way of wall mounting? or would one have to buy the hardware separately?
