Greetings chipaholics.
As the title states, I'll be commissioning exactly one more set from CPC before they cut off orders in April. Prior to their announcement I had planned to have them produce TWO more sets: an inlayed set for cash, and a hotstamped set for tourney. This would not have happened until 2026 though.
Both would have employed the same historic theme which is shown below:
I believe this flag was first flown in Texas at the Battle of Gonzales in 1835.
Given the sad CPC news though, I had to make some sacrifices in order to afford even one set by April:
1) Scratch the cash set.
2) Tourney set will be inlayed.
3) The tourney set will employ less expensive spot patterns than I'd initially selected.
The order wills include enough to support three full tables plus rebuys/color-ups.
I own the inlay art as of today, so here is your first look:
The CPC closure news was at least countered with the fact that they are allowing us to order chips on Ewing mold which is what the set above will actually be.
One of the Ewing samples I received from Dave at CPC was the inspiration for selecting the half pies. The spots I initially had for the first three chips were 314. I'm liking this change much better.
Well, that's it folks. When I'm about ready to order I'll post a sample order thread in the classifieds.
