I am definately envious of this set-up. The time and money investment in a project like this might make it difficult to copy with many gaming groups. However, it is the COOLEST design I have seen!
I always bring at least 2 full "sets" of dice to the table with me. I add a few extra d20 and some d6's to round out the lot. All the rest of my dice are in my dice bag within easy reach.
