43mm Project Discussion (4 Viewers)

I know Baccara is not French for Chemin de fer, I was referring to the variation of the game I would play.

Again I was originally just making an attempt at being funny. I’ll try again below.

Maybe I could come deal it for you... then it would be punto banco.

Since the mold will not be complete for another three weeks I might have some free time time to consider adding a $.25 and $1. Once the mold is complete I will start the group buy. I am feeling a little inspiration from a couple classics from the Tropicana for the $1 chip.

 

[TheOctagon]

Can you pull off a quarter or half pie in CC?? That's something else.

 

[Redouble]

Sounds good

 

[mummel]

Any updates on the labels? Thanks @Apache .

This is such an all star line up of chips, I think it would look odd to have low detail chips as part of the mix.

I'd just like to see a nice purple chip added - only major color you don't currently have - purple edge spots look great - just use that to make a chip.

If you're still thinking pies, I think a tri-pie would be an interesting look as long as it's not a total pain the ass to make.

That would be a little too tempting for me. I love the classic Tropicana label. With sharp edges, quarter and 1/2 pie inserts for 1$ and 25c chips I don't think I'll be able to resist getting a cash set. Josh you are Evil.

 

[mummel]

Not a fan of pies, but Im in the minority I believe.

 

[Santa123]

Before I fall too much in love with the chips... Any idea about minimum order quantity?

What about the $5 chip also labeled with $500.000?

Me neither, but maybe mock-up looks nice. Let’s see! Sounds promising!

 

[Beakertwang]

@Apache, a 1/2 pie quarter and Paulson-style tri-moon dollar would be fantastic!

All Aboard!!!! Choo Choo!

 

[Redouble]

I would prefer a quarter pie to a half pie. A tri moon would be great also.

 

[Aaron]

I don’t wanna be negative but can’t the cash set come later? Once the mold is made it can be used to make whatever cash set you dream up. I imagine the manufacturing time will be lengthy and adding denoms just makes it long right?

Unless there are labels. Then folks can pick and choose whatever chips they want!

I'd be equally good with a quarter pie, as well.

Being China Clay, I would best guess (with lots of experience):

• This group, plus extras Josh sells later (at more than early buyer prices) will cover the MOQ from the manufacturer.
• Chips will be sold in rolls of 25. That means each denom you order is a roll with 25 chips.
• Sample sets will be up to Josh, but have come to be expected.

 

[TheOctagon]

Biggest question for me is not “will this happen” but “Is this a 6-max tourney set plus high roller heads up” or “is this a 6-max high roller set plus a low denom heads up”.

Oh, and what about racks? I think I have a case that can accommodate 43mm in any event.

 

[Redouble]

Here is a suggestion. How about black and gold for the colors of a quarter pie $.25?

 

[BmoreTerp]

@Apache Will blanks be available during initial group buy?

 

[Meddler2]

@Apache Will blanks be available during initial group buy?

OP indicates blanks would be available.

 

[Jelugo1977]

If you are open to ideas, I have always love the 1/4, tri-colour look. I designed these.
I will order a set of those 43mm Majestics. Very nice.

 

[Cyo]

The more I look at these the more I like them. I may break down and get a tourney set since all my other stuff is for cash games.

Or, I could just run super high roller cash games... but that may have to be on hold until I win the lottery.

 

[DeeVee8]

We could always make up for not having a purple in this set.

 

[Jelugo1977]

Here is the latest art. I tried to pay attention to all the posts and make everyone as happy as possible.
The $1000 chip is based on the $20 Aurora Star and the $25,000 is the Horseshoe. Also, I added a purple/pink chip to the lineup.
I do not see the need for any major changes here. Center artwork is next!

My thoughts on this set so far.
5 - I like it. Simple.
25 - i liked it better with purple-yellow edge spots
100 - i like the blue - white - blue edge spots someone posted earlier. Plenty of pink on the other chips. This one could go without it.
500 - perfect
1000 - i like it
5000 - i like this one the least. Looks like a tiger. I think lighter orange and light grey would work well.
25k - perfect. My favorite.
100k. Looks nice.

 

[Redouble]

Thoughts?

 

[Jelugo1977]

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I much preferred the previous 1000 chip. The rest of the changes are all definite improvements especially the 25 and the 25,000.

I like the previous 100 better as well

Here is the latest art. We added a new color to the $25 and changed the $100 spots a bit. Let me know what you think.

I prefered the triple edge spots on the 100.

 

[Apache]

Here are the added $.25 and $1 chips.

 

[SeanGecko]

That’s interesting!!!

 

[SeanGecko]

If this was already in production and 39mm I wouldn’t have bought all the 8V chips!

This is a definite future buy. Thank you taxes
