Games equipment made by fans

Hello everyone, I thought it would be a good idea to create a thread for discussions about gaming equipment made by fans.
We are all concerned by the problem of storing wooden parts which is too small in the original box, by the classification of game cards that no longer want to contain the basic housing, by the box that closes badly because everything is so overflowing. we added more material, in short all our little daily troubles as insatiable players that we are.
I try to make play equipment with recovered elements that I assemble or modify, but also from other unusable games that I recycle or transform for my personal needs at the time.
Hope you will share your creations and tips on this discussion thread

Dice area.
The dice rolling on the game board overturning everything in their path became unbearable, I decided to fix it.

Pharmacies regularly get rid of packaging from boxes containing body care products, sometimes the boxes are quite pretty and sturdy. So grab one, cut a nice square of leather that you place at the bottom to dampen noise and improve roll.

Well, that's it.

Tile holder

We all have, in a corner, an old useless piece of wood that we use either for the fire or for the recycling center. Well, it's time to recycle this old board as a tile holder for your games.
Strip the board and sand it, then make nice furrows deep enough to insert the tiles without hurting them. Finally, cut the 6 six equal pieces for your favorite game.

Well, that's it.

Ingots value 5

I'm sure a lot of us have some really nice games with metal parts. Wishing to continue the adventure, we therefore acquired an extension which allows us to play with 5/6 players, and horror, the value 5 coins of the extension are in cardboard.
Well, you probably have an old silver bracelet in the back of your drawer that is either too small or crooked, so recycle it.

Well, that's it.

Card shoe

The stack of cards to be dealt during the course of the game, if it is slivated, regularly collapses.
You all have in your home an old thousand terminals, if you do not have one, do the empty attics and you will find some cheap.
The older ones have a fairly sturdy black shoe in which you can place your cards and even your complementary meeples.

Well, that's it.

Ingredient shoe for tavern cavern

If you work in the Nasty dwarf tavern, managing the ingredients needed to prepare drinks for equally repulsive customers will be difficult if you don't have a suitable shoe.
A black plastic storage bin that was intended to classify the electrical pods was quickly recycled into a magnificent shoe with 12 slots for the ingredients found in the cellar of the Evil Dwarf.

Well, that's it.
