Greetings, all! Thought I'd share photos of a portable gaming kit that I put together. I hope it's not, but if this post is inappropriate for the forum, please delete and feel free to yell at me. The kit contains the basics for gaming on the go. You can see that it's compact, and I modified the zippered case by inserting chip board (2 layers) to create a dice tray inside the cover.

Greetings, all! Thought I'd share photos of a portable gaming kit that I put together. I hope it's not, but if this post is inappropriate for the forum, please delete and feel free to yell at me. The kit contains the basics for gaming on the go. You can see that it's compact, and I modified the zippered case by inserting chip board (2 layers) to create a dice tray inside the cover.

Three of these photos were taken pool-side (as in, I'm in a swimming pool), where I regularly game solo. One rolled die or another tended to end up in the pool eventually, which sparked a chain of ideas that led to a self-contained gaming kit. Rolling on the dice tray keeps the dice contained and has been tested with a drop of both sets of dice from a foot above the tray.

The contents at the moment include:
- Pens, pencils, markers, and a highlighter (not pictured)
- Pencil sharpener
- Felt dice bag with 2 sets of poly dice, plus an 8-sided direction die
- Thumb-size flashlight
- Thumb (flash) drive
- Moleskin notebook
- Several 1- and 2-page adventures by various authors (the folded slips of paper)

If you think of anything missing from this kit, or have ideas for further enhancements, please let me know!
