I gotcha. Nice design. Will you have enough 25’s

Thanks!

I have 230 greens (thanks again!). Would like to get to 300. If I can get the 10 from the sale ad that just got posted, I’ll have 240 and that will be good in most situations.

So just sent these over to @ABC Gifts and Awards. Very excited. Going to make a big tournament set with the hopes of getting a multi-table tournament together. Excited to see them on the chips! (But not looking forward to applying 2600 labels!)

Love that label!

It will be on a black chip - just pulling in the green edge spot.

I love the design and I get the deer is the color of the chip. I’m a little worried about pulling in the edge spot colors, though. I did that on a tournament set once and while I thought it was incredibly obvious, there were a few players who looked at the denomination color and got mixed up.

Just a word of warning. I think your chips are less obvious about the edge spot than mine were (which is good). So, hopefully you won’t have that problem.

Again, love the design.

I appreciate the feedback and you do raise a good point. Particularly because I was inconsistent with its application (the pink chip for example has a purple deer and the gray chip has a red deer while the rest of the chips deer color is that of the main chip color). There are some inconsistencies with the number colors as well. Usually that kind of stuff drives me crazy, but for whatever reason I was a little more flexible to have what I thought made the chip pop the most.

At the end of the day, the denominations are on there so hopefully it won’t be too much of an issue, but it probably would have been good to consider that.

 

[SeanGecko]

Very happy about this. Here’s almost all of them. Once I get the table worked on and set up properly it will be game on. Hoping for March or April.

Sure you have enough chips?

 

[Beakertwang]

Also, @SeanGecko, where did you get the yellows? I must have missed that.

"Enough chips" - what a strange concept!

 

[SeanGecko]

Yellow! That's my $500 and it's off screen.

 

[Beakertwang]

So those are white nickels? They look yellow.

 

[SeanGecko]

Yep white nickels. White-ish

I had a few left overs and bought a few more, and when you can’t afford the real thing, you make!

I oiled a few of each color. For my money, the improvement in color was outweighed by change in feel. Plus, I didn’t have to oil 1600 more chips.

Those turned out GREAT! The brown 1,000s are prob my favorite. I’m bummed I can’t make it Saturday I would love to play with them. I’m shuffling my 8vs right now and really like the feel. I suspect after some shuffling they will get smooth.

They are quite good. Got another game the 16th. I’m psyched!

Expand please, did you not like the change in feel? From what I have seen so far, these take oil well. really helps the colors pop.

I am also curious if oiling these enhances the plastic quality of them (not good).
