@kaimat not sure where you found these, but nice grab…. If by any chance you don’t need them all, I’m still in search of 15-20 to finish my rack…. Thx!

Been a few days... wanted to get them cleaned up and show them with the set!

@kaimat posted a FB market place find, my brother @Pinkdan picked up the chips and sent them to me free as a birthday present. I offered trades and big cash as I desperately needed the $1s. He said absolutely not! Dude serious chipping karma headed your way and seriously thank you for the amazing birthday present!

Also some amazing cut cards from my buddy! @JesterTX they are bad ass bro!

So... I had my work cut out for me on cleaning these!! Like they were in a fire or covered in fuel oil or something! Took a few hours believe it or not!

And now the good part... finally playable with the Artichokes

As far as my favorite stakes $.10/$.20... we are only 2 - $1 chips away for 7 player $40 starting stacks!

Obviously for rebuys it would be great to have some more $1s but I think this will work! 16 rebuys means a total bank of $920 and an average of $131 per player for 7 players... not fantastic but I think pretty damn playable

Obviously also ready to go for $.05/$.10 as well with the Nickles and quarters

Long post and I apologize, almost 2 years and thousands of dollars to make this dream set a reality! Pretty damn stoked about it!

Thank you soo much @Pinkdan I won't forget the generosity brother!!

Also serious shout out to @Spinettis Gaming for all their help making this one happen. The majority of these chips came from them. Would not be even close to playable with out them. Countless trips to the storage units, even serching under the mats in the shop to scrounge up enough to help the Ugly Duckling set playable!

Seriously guys... I am beside myself. When @Justin Olson shared the story of the KnuckleHead Poker theme, the story of his Fathers old bike and the restoration project bringing it back to life and then naming his poker room after it. I have never heard a more fitting name for a poker room and Damn if Papa Olson isn't lookin down proud of his young man!

I reached out to Justin and said "hey man, if you have a spare of any of the chips... I would love one for a capper" well in true Justin form... no response, no like... a few weeks later I get a package in the mail. No words, just jaw dropping chips! Again Justin's style!

Absolutely some of the most beautiful customs I have seen. He truly spared no expense, I hadn't even noticed the color matching Motorcycles! Honestly can't even pick a favorite other than Pop's bike is red, while one of the darker chips, I think I would choose that!

Not sure if he has shared the left side of the photo yet and not trying to steal any thunder but interesting story on those as well!

PCF trully has some of the most generous people anywhere! Mr. Olson seriously awesome chipping karma coming your way brother!

Can't wait to come play the Knuckleheads and the rest of your amazing collection in person one day brother!!

Look out "Customs of the Year" and HOF bound!!

It says alot when I sell him a limit set and he makes a better set out of it. That FN guy.....

Love it!
 
An unexpected envelope arrived in the mail today. I had forgotten that @MatB said he would send me this additional sample for busting him in the DiD main event tournament.

My daughter was trying to rip open the package when I saw who it was from so I confiscated the scissors she grabbed to make sure no chip assaults happened.

Thank you again Mat! They are beautiful and going into my display case now.
