How do you cushion the outside of the bowls/tops?
1-mm or less foam sheet ;
1-mm or less felt sheet ;
cut into a circle shape for your needs --
your local art supplies or crafts store is your friend. :)
(When I flip the lids over for prisoners containers,
I also cushion the interior of the lids (round felt sheet);
all these circular cushions fit inside the bowls for easy storage! :) )


Thanks for the links!
While I like the idea of cushioning the inside of the bowl (especially during transport), I personally wouldn't bother cushioning the inside of the lid. Taking a prisoner, and dropping it in the lid (to a satisfying click) is part of the beauty of playing Go in person (my opinion). Are you going to be that guy that keeps plastic on his TV? :mrgreen:

I have seen sets where the owner uses a handkerchief (or similar size piece of felt cloth) inside the bowl. You can cover the top of the stones this way and - by placing both bowls in a tight fitting box - you can avoid damage during transport. This is another idea for you.
