Frequently Asked Questions
Forged Gaming's full range of dice storage — including padded cases, dice bags, and organizational accessories — is available at forgedgaming.com/pages/dice-storage-organization. We ship across the US with free shipping on orders over $50. Storage products are also available through game stores that carry our wholesale line.
Forged Gaming's dice bags are designed for durability and portability, but for personalization, many players add custom patches, pins, or embroidery to fabric bags. Enamel pins and D20 bag charms from our accessories collection are an easy way to add personality without permanent modifications.
Store metal dice in a padded case or lined dice bag to prevent scratches and tarnishing. Avoid keeping loose metal dice in a bag with other sets where they can knock together. For long-term storage, keep them in a dry environment — prolonged moisture exposure can cause tarnishing on zinc alloy dice.
For metal dice, a rigid padded case offers the best protection — it prevents sets from scratching each other and absorbs impact during transport. Fabric dice bags are more portable and affordable but offer less protection for heavy metal sets. For daily game night use, a bag works fine; for travel or conventions, a case is the better choice.
Start by grouping sets together — keep each 7-piece set in its own bag or compartment so dice don't get mixed. For larger collections, a multi-compartment case or dedicated dice display lets you see everything at a glance. Label or color-code sets by character or campaign for quick access at the table.
Yes. Our padded dice cases are designed with cushioned interiors that keep metal dice separated and protected during transport. The rigid exterior prevents crushing from bag pressure. For convention travel or regular game nights away from home, a padded case is the best way to keep your sets in pristine condition.
Store metal dice in padded cases with individual compartments to prevent dice-on-dice contact. Avoid leaving them loose in fabric bags long-term, as the weight creates friction that dulls finishes. In humid environments, add a silica gel packet to your case. Keep dice away from direct sunlight and heat sources to slow oxidation.
It depends on your needs. Dice bags are the most portable and work well for a few sets. Rigid cases with foam inserts offer the best protection, especially for metal dice. Display cases combine storage with visibility for home setups. Many players use a rigid case for travel and a display case at home. Metal dice generally benefit from structured storage with individual compartments.
For conventions, choose a rigid case with a secure zipper closure and compartments that keep sets separated. The Dice Box and Dice Tray combo holds up to 300 dice with a built-in rolling tray. For lighter travel, a foam-insert case for 5–7 sets plus a Scroll Dice Tray (rolls up flat) covers you. Avoid drawstring bags for convention travel—they open too easily in transit.
Scratches mostly come from dice rubbing against each other during storage. Use cases with individual compartments or foam inserts to keep dice separated. If using bags, wrap sets in soft cloth or small pouches. During play, roll on felt or velvet tray surfaces to reduce impact wear.
Use a sealed or semi-sealed case instead of open storage or fabric bags. Add a silica gel packet to absorb moisture and replace it every few months. Avoid basements, garages, and windowsills. Wipe dice with a dry microfiber cloth after sessions to remove oils and moisture from handling.
Use display cases that stand upright on shelves to store vertically. Stackable cases also help maximize limited space. Organize by use case—keep active session sets in a quick-access tray and store the rest separately. For oversized dice, choose cases with removable foam or open compartments.
Look for bags with reinforced stitching, cord drawstrings (not ribbon), and thick linings. The Dragon Eye Dice Bag holds up to 120 dice in durable faux dragon hide. For large collections, the Pouch of the Endless Hoard has 7 divided pockets and holds over 1,000 dice. Always use individual pouches or cloth wraps inside bags to protect metal dice from scratching.
