That last item really is a workhorse. I have about ten EDH decks in mine, each in their own cheaper deck box. And a dedicated tray for my commanders in their toploaders w/ enough room for a handful of dice and the 0-99 spindown life counter from the Commander Anthology. It's a beast to carry when fully loaded, but it's solid and carries everything I need to have on the go for the game I love. I love this product to the point that I'm trying to find another one for my nascent Pauper Battle Box.

This is a bit of an issue with the product. As far as I can tell they are only made as a 10 compartment version with 8 of the smaller modules that are shown in the video and 2 larger modules. You can order additional modules from Stanley directly as far as I can tell, but I just went ahead and purchased a second 10 compartment and swapped the 2 larger modules from 1 with 4 small ones from the other.

Someone asked me what I did about the nub that is in the bottom of each container, and I didn't even realize they had one until it was pointed out. They said they just ground it down, but it isn't much of an issue. They can even hold a double sleeved commander deck in a single part if you put lay the tokens and commander on top of the deck.

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate the Stanley toolbox. I think I got it that toolbox a little over 3 years ago from one of your videos. I primarily play EDH and I have several friends who play, but don't have decks and I love having this thing to take 10 EDH decks to a friends house with dice and tokens. Literally no one else needs to have any of their own cards and I can host two 4-man pods out of my toolbox. I have dropped it and dropped things on it, and despite my immediate concern it was unnecessary as the box looked untouched.

DeWalt also makes a tool organizer that's quality is amazing. Water resistant and rugged. When i started playing Magic i bought one for my storage needs and i now own 3. They are stackable and will lock together. For the price point of anywhere from 10-15 dollars they have been my go to for home storage.

Thank you for another great video to go with the myriad of great videos, you've already made. Even though I play less magic these days than I did a few years ago, this channel most definitely still has value and worth to me! Also, I think your picks here are ace (I personally like the Nest for deck boxes, but the satin tower is good too). So, an early merry Christmas from Denmark, and thank you for all the videos and many more to come :)

Got a Stanley FatMax case here in the UK a few years ago, which is a 16 tray version in a heavier construction site build with massive hinges and solid metal clips. Maybe you want to put a bit of foamcard in the bottom of each compartment as they're dimpled is all. It's also quite heavy! And large! But absolutely recommended.

My kit is and probably always will be : Dragon Shield Matte with Dragon Shield Inner, Ultimate Guard Deck Case and a Stanley Fat Max (thank you so much for that recommendation, Professor!!). The Fat Max totally counters the "flimsiness" of the deck cases, since the yellow compartments add extra protection. It also allows me to carry 11 decks + dice, tokens and 2 playmats (1 from UltraPro and 1 from CardMarket) ^^

Hey Prof, Love the video. I've got a bit of an odd question. I buy a LOT of sleeves because my hands sweat a lot. I have known a few others that have similar issues and because of it sleeves get dirty unnaturally quickly. Have you ever seen products out there that are dirt resistant or gloves that work well when you are playing Mtg? I have some research without much luck but you are quite savvy in the area of accessories so I would love to hear from you or anyone else on this.

In the past, the biggest difference between the two leading quality card sleeve makers, Dragon Shield and KMC was how dirty they would get. Dragon Shields would get dirty really quickly, while KMC would not. However this applied to Dragon Shield glossy sleeves and not matte, and KMC has had a reduction in quality in the past, but their new 100 card USA limited tournament specification sleeves have returned to their original quality. In short, anything matte should do. There is a double matte sleeve that could be what you are looking for, but they are quite slippery to shuffle. I'm not too sure who makes them but the prof reviewed them at one time so go through the reviews and see if you can find it.

I got some ultra pro art sleeves a little while ago because I wanted something with art, I'd only ever bought dragon shield matte sleeves before (which was simply because that's what they sold at my LGS). I wouldn't say I was disappointed or upset with the ultra pro sleeves but the difference in quality was apparent and I won't be buying anything but dragon shield sleeves again. I really like the art and for the specific deck I'm happy with them because I want it to have art sleeves but without question, the dragon shield sleeves are of superior quality.

Regarding the Stanley tool box, you could cut out some custom foam inserts for each compartment to reduce the space between the cards and the lid. That would keep cards from jostling around so much.

My favorite non-Magic intended product is the Amazon Basic (Large) DSLR Camera bag. Roughly $25 It's tall enough to hold 2 deck boxes vertically or like 4 horizontally, wide enough for 2 commander boxes, and long enough for 3. Plus it has a flap I use to hold generals or tokens, 3 pockets for cards or sleeves, and a zipper pocket for dice, cards, etc. I generally hold 4 commander decks, 2 Pauper decks, and my mimic chest full of dice and the generals in the main pouch. And I hold basically all of my sleeves in the 3 outer pockets and use the zipper pocket for counters and dice that don't look good in my mimic chest. Best of all, it has 2 loops dedicated for a collapsible camera stand that I use to hold my mat. Other than a binder, it holds every single thing I need and is worth checking out. Comes in orange or gray interior.

About the Ultra Pro Platinum Series 9-pocket pages: they can *easily* fit two double-sleeved cards (card in a pro-fit, in a standard sleeve) in each pocket. That's how I store them. Keeps the cards nice and snug so they don't fall out if it goes upside-down.
