Title: Playing Card Dock ( Conjuring Creations next concept )
Post by: Robert Butler on April 21, 2012, 11:46:27 PM
Our next concept for playing card display.  This was an early mock up.

Looks sweet! But why does the deck lay sideways?

The base looks rather large to me. And is this the vita thing, or is that something else?

This looks nice and sleek. Does it also function as a clip or just as a display? Also, how easily would is be possible to remove the deck?

Rob, there are tons of display methods for small amounts of decks. My advice? Create shelving units for playing card collectors complete with glass doors, lighting units, and expandable space for up to 1,000 decks. :D

I might consider buying a shelving unit built for displaying playing cards. Have been looking around for a decent one. The base of the current prototype is a little too wide and space consuming for my liking. Moreover the decks are displayed sideways which is a little odd (and space consuming) unless maybe u come out with a deck that looks gorgeous when displayed that way to be sold with in a set. Otherwise I wouldn't see myself buying that. Just my two cents worth.

How many decks would fit in it?

Only one deck or Eco Clip would fit within the dock. However, this picture only shows a rough draft of the product, and has yet to be improved. So perhaps we will decide to alter the idea to where it could hold multiple decks and/or clips.

Looks sweet! But why does the deck lay sideways?

This picture was originally presented as a dock for your Eco Clip. By design, the clip could only be fit sideways, considering the spine and the clip opening would be the only sides that could fit squarely within the dock rest. The clip would have a slight slant so the cards could fit snug. We are continuing to seek ways to improve this to where both decks and clips can fit within the dock in a very beautiful way.

The base looks rather large to me. And is this the vita thing, or is that something else?

For one clip or deck, yes, it may seem large. As I explained in the previous quotes, we are improving this idea to where it will be more streamlined and convenient for the person who wants a beautiful, elegant display. And no, this is not the Vita event. Information on that will be released at a later date.   

This looks nice and sleek. Does it also function as a clip or just as a display? Also, how easily would is be possible to remove the deck?

As a rough draft, the dock only serves as a display for the clips and/or decks. Perhaps the final product could include the functionality of a clip. Though, it would be a difficult task to conceive of. It should not be challenging in the slightest to remove a deck of cards from the dock rest. If otherwise, we will try to simplify it the best we can.


Thanks,
