Texas Flood has sat dormant for way too long. It's time to bring this project back to life. In the 9 months since I last posted an update to the label design I have been trying to procure all the chips I will need for this set. But I ran into a few roadblocks along the way. It's damn hard to put together a cohesive set of casino used chips. All the chips I have seem to be of different barrel heights and that has me on tilt. As much as I love some of the chips I bought, I just don't think this set is going to come together. At least not now.
So what do you do when you come to a roadblock? You find a detour! And in my case, I think that detour is that Texas Flood with the SRV inlay is going to go on a custom
CPC set instead of leaded used
THC chips!!!
The other big news for this set is that this week I believe my wife and I have located our new forever home. Fingers crossed or say a prayer for us, but we will submit an offer tomorrow and if we are able to purchase this home, then Texas Flood Poker Club will finally have a real home. This property has a huge detached building that will be perfect for hosting games, something I do not have in my current home.
Next step is to get back with John and finish up the INLAY!!! (not label) design. And then I need to figure out how many chips I will need. Updates on the property will be provided once we have a deal.
In the last 48 hours I've been feverishly working with the
CPC chip design tool, and I think I have a pretty solid lineup drawn up. Some of you may have seen this in another thread. I do need to see what these will look like with John's artwork on them, and I will think on them a bit to be sure it's what I want, but for the moment I'm pretty darned happy with these. So without further ado, here they are!
Top row - nickel, quarter, dollar, and $5
Bottom row - $20, $100, and $500 (why not even though I'll probably never use it)
