Today I'm releasing a new coin storage case, "Digi's Custom Coin Miner" Storage Boxes - a cryptocurrency themed Storage Box!


Coin Miner Storage Boxes

---

Each one has been printed with my own 3D printing machine and was hand assembled & checked for fitment.  They're a coin storage case I've designed styled around popular Bitcoin miners and they can hold 1oz/2oz coins, along with ANACS/other graded slabs.  Multiple insert designs and two different coin slot sizes allow a wide variety of coins & slabs to be housed in the cases.  These took me quite a bit of time to create and I'm glad to finally bring them to the community.

The default "fan grate" is closed and keeps the box dust free, there's also an open model which allows the fan blade to spin when air is blown over it:


Open Fan Grates (left) vs Closed Fan Grates (right)

Multiple varieties of inserts are available which makes your Storage Box unique to your needs.  The inserts are removable for the ability to change the boxes layout whenever you'd like, please be aware that less desirable inserts (single & double coin/single ANACS) will be printed on demand.  The inserts are sized for generic 1oz & 2oz rounds along with ANACS Slabs.  Before purchasing let me know which insert(s) you would like and based on the below "Insert Sizing Guide", if the 1oz coin slots (if applicable) are to be Small or Regular.


Insert Varieties

---

Extra Inserts can be purchased with any Storage Box and a free mining themed sticker (for the top) will be provided with every box.  If you do not want an insert for your box, a small amount can be knocked off the price.

Dimensions and Warnings

---

Approx. dimensions with lid + fans: L: 135.5m, W: 60mm, H: 67.5mm
Approx. interior dimensions: L: 104mm, W: 53mm, H: 60mm

Coin Slot Warning:
Some coins fit much tighter than others, be mindful of the pressure placed on the capsule when inserted.  A few capsules I had required being fully closed before they were able to be inserted as intended.

ANACS Warning:
The ANACS fitment is tight and it should not bend the slot pegs more than 5-10 degrees when fully inserted.  During extensive testing for fitment I found some ANACS slabs (~1/10) were oversized/thicker/bulged and if they're forced into the ANACS holder to have the lid close fully this could cause one of the pegs to break on the insert.  I'd advise checking your slab fitment before fully inserting them, if it's tight you can remedy it by filing/sanding the insert pegs to remove a little bit of material.

Thanks to everyone who helped this project come to life, you know who you are!    :)

P.S.
I wanted to add the Cryptopods prototype coin is hiding behind one of the Cas coins.

Put me down for 2, didnt see a way to order, but i want 1 open and 1 closed box please.
Very cool looking.
At the hospital right now while my wife is being induced, so if i dont respond right away, dont think i dont want them :)

One of each please :)
Interested in having these listed on my store?

Viz

Digi..Cool idea man...will take 1 diy unassembled with standard top please

Noted, everyone is all set!  These will be shipping out Monday in a batch and I've provided an example order in my second post to clarify the details that will help me get you the right box setup.  :)

Nice work on these.

Wow these surely look great! I'm contemplating buying one or two :D

Nice, its finally here!  Digi can you recommend what insert i would need to store my 4 coin Game set in this case.  If there isnt one for just 4 of those coins than 1 insert that will hold the set and other coins as well is fine.

Appreciate it, I like your idea that if you put coins in here that receive distributions, it's an energy free miner.



Thanks for the kind words!



Thanks wheelz and yes, all the major work has been completed to bring these to the community!  

In regards to the sizing, either the 5-1oz or 4-1oz & 1-ANACS would work for that, both Regular slot width.  One or the other could also be reconfigured into a new 4-1oz insert, would be quick and easy for me to do upon request.  ;)

These are very nicely done. Great job, digi.  Are all of the pieces and parts made with a 3d printer?  Looks like a ton of work went into making each piece fit perfectly. 

Thanks hybrid, all pieces were designed by me in CAD and then 3D Printed on my machine.  Each box takes close to 24 hours to print all the pieces and I've been running the printer non-stop for the past 2 months.

Awsome then i think i will opt for the 4 coins and an anacs slab insert no need to make a unique insert.  Just want to make sure its the one to fit my Game set.  I will take the one with the see through top and the open fan.  Will pm you later to complete payment im out atm, thanks digi.  Cant wait to get this. (Sweetest coin holder ive seen to date).

Sounds great wheelz and thanks for the support.  All paid orders will be shipped out tomorrow morning.   :)

Would you be willing / able to print me something custom for my nastyfans silver set?

Sure can, the box inserts fit the 1oz, 2oz, & ANACS graded NastyFans coins.  Which ones were you looking to group together?

That's the thing.  I have 2x 5 and 2x 10oz coins as well. 

I'd be able to create something for the 5oz coin(s) but I do not have a 10oz coin to size up or test with.

I would like to purchase 1 x

I could certainly lend you one for box creation.   Let me know what you would charge for something like this. 

Thanks TTM and definitely RMC, I'll be in touch about the custom design to gather some specs.  :)

These look very nice, could you update the prices, since they show an error message currently?

The prices are showing properly for me, I've tested in 3 different browsers.  :(

The image conversion for price comes from www.bit-it.eu, are you able to access that site and if not I will provide a BTC quote via PM, valid for 24 hours.

thanks for the update, could you ship to Europe without any additional charges?
If so, I would take the

Received my miner storage! Love it..thanks Digi, ;D

I completely missed out on this and I have to say that this is one of the most exciting projects I've seen come out of this section for a while! I can see that you put great thought in to these and I will be in touch shortly to order one or two (if you still have some left by then). Great stuff digi, you are on a roll lately ;)

bavicrypto, I've sent you a PM.

Thanks for the confirmations everyone, I'm glad they've met expectations.  :)



Appreciate the kind words Hhampuz and get in touch, the stock seems to be moving faster than I thought!


UPDATE
Two open version boxes are left and I will make more as soon as time permits.  Appreciate all the support so far!

hey there, Thank you. I paid it and will send you the details via pm

Awesome picture MJ, thanks for sharing!   :)



Thanks, I've sent you a PM following up.

I wanted to clarify for others that the price listed on the first post is fixed in USD and a quote via PM would be required to have the conversion amount from that image valid for 24 hours.  If there is any discrepancy in your payment amount, I will let you know immediately.

All currently completed orders have been shipped out yesterday and I'm glad to announce two more "Open Grate" versions are available.  :)

Nice looking storage boxes. I haven't got the space for a few of these but great idea!

Congrats Digi!

Appreciate the kind words coin@coin!

OP has been updated to reflect the available boxes and there's no limit on order quantity now.

I would, but for almost $100 I rather buy a few more floating cases and another box to hold my coins. Sorry digicoinuser, it looks really cool, but I'm a cheap bastard. ;D

Nice box...HODLing my precious coins indeed :D

I agree they aren't rated at Chinese labor/material prices and hopefully I can run a sale in the near future which may make them more affordable per single storage box.   :)

To explain the initial pricing - I've taken into account my prototyping & CAD time, materials per unit, time it takes to finish each unit, and shipping/handling costs.  Each miner storage box takes a good amount of effort since they aren't made with injection molding processes and I go over each piece individually for fitment & 3d print cleaning.  Once I sell a certain number of units, I expect the cost to go down ~30%.



Thanks krog, appreciate the kind words!

some goodies from digi arrived:

the miner storage box is awesome, definitely a must have for every coin collector!

Appreciate the confirmation and photo bavi, thanks for the support!  :)

Suppose I’m overdue for one! Let me pick it out and will send PM shortly!

Thanks for your support and PM received/replied.   :)

I need to get one of these and never have yet.

Do you still have the open grate version.  If so I will take one of those with fittings for my 4 coin Game Coin set.  Assembled with non acrylic top.  Thanks digi!

I've been meaning to order as well. Please let me know if you have an open fan grate box with the acrylic top :)

Definitely and sounds good, I'll get in touch via PM!



PM incoming.  ;)

Received my miner coin case, thanks digi!

I do have to say, these came out insanely sick.  It's probably the coolest non coin/wallet/etc type item I've bought in the bitcoin space,  if anyone is on the fence about these get one...you won't regret the purchase.

Thanks for the kind words wheelz!

Storage boxes still available and ready to store newly found coins.   :)

Updated available quantities, only 1 open grate Miner Storage Box remains currently.

Can I buy just the inserts by themselves?  I'd like to get 2 of each size :)

saw that 'extra inserts' is available, but wasn't sure if that's only for someone who purchases the entire setup.

Yes, you can purchase inserts by themselves for $5 ea.  Send me a PM and let me know which ones you're looking for, image linked here (https://i.imgur.com/js3Q0v2.jpg) for reference.   :)

Thanks everyone for the support and purchases!  The price on all the boxes has been lowered and this is effective going forward.  I'm hoping to get more clear top versions finished soon.   ;D

Would these suit Air-Tite capsules? Mainly the H size

MJ is correct and these are still available.  :)

Bump because this is very cool

And another one because it's still cooler than 0 Kelvin!

Any plans for an updated S17 form factor?  :P

Confirmed.  By far the best coin holder I've seen/had to date.

Appreciate the kind words, there are still some available if anyone's interested.

Longtime BTCump, I was reminded I still have some of these in stock and they've been sealed up waiting for new homes!   :)

thanks for the talk on discord! looking forward to the one you are sending me!

Welcome and definitely glad to meet another fellow 3d print enthusiast, looking forward to future conversations and thanks for supporting the project!

Appreciate the BTCump Mopar, the Miner Storage Boxes are still available and are the cheapest they've ever been in terms of BTC.  ;D

got mine today! love it - the fans even spin :)
