Topic: Casascius Bearer Bars - Protective Airtite Case ? (Read 2398 times)

Remember what happened with the foam inserts on the Casascius St. Pete coins?

Was it the foam that was the issue for sure?  You can always reach out to air-tites.com to see if they have anything available.  They are my favorite coins/bar/note case provider overall.  

Was not actually "foam"... was a medium-soft plastic insert that was inside a rectangular capsule.
I will see if I can find one or a pic of one.... Smiley

EDIT: To confirm that they came in those capsules:
http://digitalmoneytimes.com/bitcoin-st-petersburg-bowl-physical-coin-commmemorates-major-sporting-event/

"Once you remove the plastic bubble wrapping, you are presented with a see through plastic case, inside of which is the coin itself. I would recommend not opening the plastic case itself in order to protect the coin from any damage. For those of you unaware, (collectible) coins are prone to damage if they are taken out of their protective casing. As this coin will not be loaded with Bitcoin (simply because it isn’t intended to be loaded), there is no real reason to take it out of the casing in the first place."

Wow..

I will get right on it then. I also can have things lasered into them if we all want to get fancy? I will keep you guys posted on this. I have all the bars mentioned for specs also!

Do you have the machine or would you be getting someone/a company to do this for you?
I'd be interested in a few for F*D and Kialaras.

My buddy owns a large machine shop with tons of high-end CNC machines. I just take the bars to the guys in the shop and tell them what I want done. They also have a crazy fiber laser that can engrave into metal etc..

Did anything come of this Blazed ?

I will make some prototypes of the Casascius bar first. I know that I can have some thicker Lexan CNC'd out to fit.

I would take 6, maybe 7

Depending on price and quality, I would take 5.
If you do a run for the Kialara bars, and the above works out, then I would take a bunch more.

It would be 'nice' if they could still fit the dimensions of a standard coin slab.


Might as well add the finite-by-Design bitcoin and ether bars........ Wink

Thanks

I have a Lindner Nimbus 150

example: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Object-frame-NIMBUS-150-Dimensions/dp/B00G7Q6UU0

I put a F*D Bitcoin bar in it but unfortunately the bar is too heavy so when the frames stands up vertical the bar slowly "sinks" to the bottom.  Undecided

Kialara fits great in the Nimbus 100 and stay in the middle of the frame because they a light  Smiley

I will keep looking for cases for the Casascius Bearer Bars, if I find something I will let you all know.

Did anyone end up finding anything for these other than Michails suggestion (which I think I may end up doing myself)

I could probably have some made with lexan. I tried to find some for my bars with no luck since it is a unique size. Maybe I will have a run of 10 cases made.

I would be interested to hear, thanks for doing this.

http://www.prophila.de/Produktbeschreibung/-/li4836S/145/0/1/1342091408201426041811791125171182.html I can get the type of cases that were talked about earlier for 8.5 euros. Just need to confirm if the 100x100mm is internal or external dimensions.

I will hold fire until I know what you find.

100 X 100 were the internal dimensions btw
