Time to start building.

That's a beast. You doing a custom loop?

 

[CrazyEddie]

I have now joined an exclusive club: Triangle Mold Owners!

These are MD-54 TRIANGLES and there's not a lot of chit-chat about them on PCF so far, just here, here, and here. I got these on eBay; I bought a two-chip sample, then the seller asked if I wanted another several hundred. I made a pretty low offer and he accepted so welp here we are!

Set Number Sixteen for me. I may have a problem.

Chipguide says these are "Attributed to Wally Howard in Mt. Olive, Illinois. Wally owned a barber shop with gambling reported in the back room." Google doesn't know anything about this, though, so if anyone has any further information about my buddy Wally please let me know.

From the seller's pictures (and Chipguide) I thought these would be a lot more red than they are, but they are Very Orange. So, I guess this becomes my Halloween set, to go with my Christmas and Independence Day sets.

Two of them. But not right away. I refuse to pay double MSRP for a graphics card so I will be transplanting one from my current setup. Once I have a new card (leaning towards a 6700XT) I will work on the custom loops.

Sweet, never got into the custom loops myself. What kind of CPU and board you going with, or already have? I'm still rocking a 1080ti I bought a few years ago, still works great.

 

[tabletalker7]

I got the Asus TUF X-570 Plus and a 5800X to put on it. And don't feel bad it will be my first custom loop job too. Gotta learn sometime, and Windows 11 not allowing first gen Ryzen is the excuse to build.

ThermalTake Tower 900. It's a computer case the size of a beer fridge. It's insane. I love it!

 

[Mike mac]

Ahhh dang- I thought it was some kind of hot stamper LOL

 

[Senzrock]

It’s been a full year working on finding nr/mint RHC chips for a major tournament relabel project… but with today’s mail from @Señor Tony - the search is finally OVER!

Arc yellow, canary yellow, blurple, Hawaii flower, Indian blue… it’s all here!

Seriously. RHC solids are impossible to find. Those are amazing

 

[Windwalker]

And the vagabond BTPs, like circus gypsies, continue their aimless drifting across America.

Another fun mail day. Yellow starbursts. Some fun lion hot stamps. And, as always, Four Queens.

Aww man I need more yellow solids. Let me know when you’re ready to sell. Lol

 

[BamaT8ter]

@RainmanTrail it looks like you might own/have owned some of these lion-head stamps. What's the story on them? I can't find anything about them on the ChipGuide.

I so hope that the blues are $8 and the blacks are $16.

Yes, I had some gold and dark blue racks several years back. I got them from noblecountydanny if I recall correctly. Not sure about their history though.

 

[BamaT8ter]

The blues, blacks, and the reds on the right are just stamped “S”. Reds are $1. Blacks are $4. Blues are 25c.

Is that one of the previously lost packages ?

 

[Windwalker]

Is that one of the previously lost packages in Memphis?

No, sadly. Of the Memphis packages, one package from the UK did finally make it, with the one rack of Le Cove $20s. The 4 other racks from Canada are gone with the wind.

This a package that’s about 20,000 times more exciting. Pr0n tomorrow.

 

[liftapint]

Are these the chips from the porch dude?

20,000 times more exciting?? I can't wait to see!!!


Edit: And is the number 20,000 significant?

At least it's not going through Memphis. That's got to be a plus right there.

 

[Windwalker]

Edit: And is the number 20,000 significant?

Not that much thought at all. Was just a random multiple, I’m just excited about the package.

This must be a big one. How much more significant in comparison to than lets say ACF or Lakeshores?

 

[Windwalker]

That’s truly subjective. There are some people who think the ACFs are dog poop.

Gloss inlays? Or textured?

Textured and shaped.
