Words on the box

Engraved on the box: the top and each long side have their own line. Leave one empty for a plain face. A long line is made smaller to fit.

Dominoes

Tiles per layer5

28 tiles in 6 layers · box 62.6 × 141 × 29.6 mm

Material

Measure your sheet with calipers: the slots are cut to this thickness. Kerf is the width of the cut; a larger value makes the joints tighter, 0 turns it off.

Sliding fit

The gap between drawer and sleeve. Raise it if the drawer sticks, lower it if it rattles.

Finger joints

Edges are split into tabs close to this width. Smaller tabs give more of them.

Yes. The box is sized from the tiles: their long side lies across the tray, a few side by side in each layer, with room at the end to get a finger under the last one. Change the tile size, the thickness or the number per layer and the box follows.

Double six, the usual 28 tiles, or double nine with 55. A double-nine set is taller: raise the number of tiles per layer to keep the box low.

Yes. The tile thickness and the box thickness are set separately, so thick tiles can go in a box of thin plywood. Measure both sheets with calipers.
