My pyramids were previously in a triangle zipper bag. It didn't fit any boards and I heard your pyramids could get damaged just jiggling around in a bag, so I switched to an old chocolate tin with a hinged lid that I had around. It's as fancy as it is only because it's a reproduction of an even older chocolate tin.

Pyramids included: a full Xeno set (5 trios of each color) from Ice Towers plus a tube of orange I won in a Looney Labs contest, a Homeworlds set (3 trios each of the transparent rainbow colors), and six trios of Kickstarter Green from the kickstarter.

There's room for more pyramids but instead I have two different decks of Zendo cards in there, the official one and one I printed up specifically for playing with Xeno colors (under the Ice7 cards). The small bag is full of travel Othello pieces and some generic green game pieces for playing Zendo. The Zendo bag is from an experimental Artscow order using art available at BGG. (I wasn't a huge fan of the results, mostly because the bag material was too slippery for the drawstrings and they had no clasps to make up for it.) I use it for a draw bag now. Despite appearances, I don't play Zendo that much.

The six yellow traffic cones are of unknown origin but come in handy when marking off unused parts of a paper or virtual board.

Since I took these pictures, I've added a printed Solomids board with a 6x6 Volcano grid on the back, rare earth magnets to hold the paper boards onto the lid, and one Lightning die for Nomids (using the stickers from Sandships).

What I'd like to do is make removable 3D printed trays of about the size of the current rows so that I can store the loose items underneath them rather than on top.
