Here are a couple of simple ideas for my travel approach. Maybe you can use them as well.

(1) First off I have cut a piece of cord that is the exact tossing length I want with regard to my throwing position. I just keep that in my suitcase at all times and when I travel I pull it out to set up my practice rig in my room, always the right length between tossing and receiving stations.

(2) I use the room ironing board for my tossing station. Usually they can be adjusted to a height that is at least close to what a table rail would be.

(3) I have used the drawer trick with a towel in it for a receiving station or just tossed onto the bed with some pillows at a proper distance. These are OK but really only good for how the dice look in the air. That is really good enough. However, I was gifted with a small travel receiving station that is able to be broken down and put in a suitcase. It uses magnets for the sides to hold it all in place when set up. Since I am not handy, hopefully one of the guys that can build these will explain how they built it or maybe even have plans. Honestly, you don’t need one of these but they are nifty to have.

ive seen a travel rig on the net advertised somewhere long time ago when doing searches.
folds all up into a carry case and had legs to get it to height.
no idea where I saw that thing now, but if that’s what you want, try some google searching. Maybe check the image results as well and you may spot it.

Someone had mentioned to me at one time, use a hotel chair and turn the blue box upside down on top of the chair, to use as a throwing station. You can use the chair back as a rail to lean on while setting the dice. Then throw into the bed at a proper distance.

Hi Preacher I sent you a PM . Let me know if you got it .
Good Rolling. 😀 😀

Golden Touch has a practice rig that fits into an over night suitcase.

I think it is perfect if I do say so myself!

The above is just one of the portable practice rigs. There is also one that folds up to put in a suitcase. I sell these at "At-a-boys" … a good run at the casino that built your 401G and you want to give yourself something. Or the perfect gift for the craps player that has everything and their significant other wants to get them something 🙂

Dom,

Exactly what I need. I see it now on the GTC web site. I’ll be ordering next week. Two questions:

1) What are the dimensions, so I can get a carrying case?
2) How long to get a 2nd base that mimics soft, bouncy tables?

Sell me both, and I’ll be unstoppable!

Also, Hot Shot and CMCierra, I like the advice to use the back of a chair and an ironing board as a throwing station. Maid service is going to really wonder about me.

I am away this week on a little R and R. I will get back to you next week
