I love the inlay and the spot progression you chose. Another great addition to The Hitching Post! Can't wait to see action shots of this set.

I can’t either, getting a set under quarantine definitely qualifies as bittersweet!

Calling first on waitlist for S@P 2021. Beautiful chips, love the reveal!

5k is absolutely perfect.

Beauties! I needs me a custom CPC set

 

[cpac54]

Holy skeetballs, you absolutely killed it with this set. Well done, sir!

Super nice job! Hope you and the family are doing well

When you are ready take the plunge. Nothing beats the rush of designing your own.

Super nice job! Hope you and the family are doing well

Beyond getting a little stir crazy all is good. Hopefully the world clears up soon and I can ship you a stack somewhere.

Congrats, sir! Really, really love how the 25k turned out, and the 100k and 500k look great in stacks! I also love that you made a chip with a saturn base look fantastic. The path to the promise land with that color is narrow and perilous, but you navigated it like the pro you are.

Were you at the table at Bert’s when we had the big debate about canary base vs Saturn? We actually felt like the green in the Saturn worked for us in this case.

 

[ChaosRock]

Love them, Tom! They came out even better than expected, brother.

Can’t wait to ship those stacks left and right with you and the gang!

^^ This, big-time. First words I muttered when viewing the pics. Incredible, really.

All of them are knockouts, however; each chip is outstanding on it's own merits while still meshing as a set. Inlay is crystal clear (and the denom values are not often seen), allowing the creative use of some very nice alternate colors.

Very hard to pick a single favorite, but it just might be that saturn 25k chip..... although the maroon 5k is a real stunner, too. And of course tiger/peacock is always a striking combo. Hell yeah, I like 'em all.

Nice job, Tom! Looking forward to seeing and getting these into play.

Were you at the table at Bert’s when we had the big debate about canary base vs Saturn? We actually felt like the green in the Saturn worked for us in this case.

I was, yes. If memory serves, the debate was continuity/progression vs. "best chip possible in the slot". The majority leaned toward "best chip possible" which was saturn. I recall being on the fence a little bit with initially a slight lean away from the majority - both options would have worked well, but I'm generally terrified of a saturn base which probably biased my thinking. Regardless, I think your decision was the right one in the end.

Wow these are amazing!

@flipupchipup had a great comment on the 5K, he said it just looked like the quintessential Hitching Post chip. The 25K was the hardest chip in the set. We sat around a table at Bert’s meetup and went back and forth for like an hour.

Congrats on the new set! Some really unique colors, I really like the maroon 5k.

 

[Frogzilla]

These look fantastic. DG Saturn is so underrated

 

[PAZ]

Congrats on another great set!!

 

[surfik]

Old school.... 5k chocolate chips are outstanding

 

[CraigT78]

No 1,000,000 chip?? Pffffttt.


Very nice all around. Each chip is stunning, and they go quite well together. Well done sir.

 

[joker80]

Love the classic colour palette with the scrown mold. These look great!

 

[k9dr]

Beautiful addition to the Hitching Post theme - can’t wait to play with them someday

Lol there starts to become space considerations on the inlay.

 

[CdnBeerLover]

Those came out great. Congrats!

 

[Perthmike]

Congrats on a other great hitching post set @Mr Tree

Ballsy move with the base on the t25k chip. But I like it a lot.

 

[slisk250]

These are really nice Tom. Hope my Saturn chip turns out as nice as yours.

 

[Venturalvn]

Very cool set, and love to see the Saturn. I gotta say I'm so disappointed to see the speed bump still being an issue after they said they'd fix the buffer wheels. Regardless, another champion set for Mr. Tree's magic chip making machine!

 

[Venturalvn]

Now I know why you're called Mr. Tree. Cuz chip sets just grow off you!
