You could consider Majestics/Dunes/Pharaoh CC as well if you're uncomfortable with the 43mm. Although the general consensus is that Royals are a better quality chip than the rest.

 

[Himewad]

I wish these were 39 mm instead, never had a chip that big before i feel like it might feel weird

It’s 4mm. Yes, you can tell the difference, but it’s not a game changer. If you like the chip designs but aren’t sure about the size, get samples, like @PokerDots said.

Finally got around to labeling and oiling everything. Pretty happy with how it turned out.
I’ll be adding orange $50 because of a generous offer from @chutracheese for some free labels.

I promise you won’t regret it! I’m not super experienced, but I’m pleasantly surprised how much I love them!

Ditto.

[Himewad]

added 400 blue chips

 

[Himewad]

[Himewad]

It's just me down here in the basement. When the inevitable happens, my wife and kids are gonna think the TV fell off the wall.

 

[Himewad]

I only have 15 pink chips, but here they are

Here's my sympathy tower I built for you using only what was within 5ft of me

 

[Himewad]

I prefer this angle

I was originally planning to top off the tower with my plaques (still sitting helplessly at the bottom of the stack). But the plaques have much more weight than the chips, and I'm afraid to make it any higher - even with my bounty and seating chips!

Maybe I'll get brave as the afternoon progresses.

I'm so glad I just recently did a full photoshoot, and remember the challenge of putting everything away. Otherwise I'd be tempted to do a multi-set tower.

You would need vaulted ceilings to build THAT tower

I was thinking along the lines of a 20-chip base.

That would be pretty sweet, though. Just need to put something next to it for perspective. Like you could stand inside of it!

 

[Poker Zombie]

Fuck, now I really want to do it.

Do it, do it, do it!!!

over the past 6 months or so I've been wanting to upgrade my cash set from slugged chips to something semi custom. I keep coming back to the royals. Full custom CPC is expensive, so I was thinking royals with some custom labels might fit the upgrade and budget. cant seem to decide on what chip combination to go with, so I wanted to get some thoughts.

op1

op2

op3

op4

 

[Himewad]

I'm kind of digging option 4

 

[dutch_whaley]

I keep coming back to the royals.

This is exactly what happened to me! Feel free to PM me if you have some more specific questions I might be able to help with, but my vote is probably #3

 

[Poker Zombie]

Not usually a fan of Cali sets, but op4 is a winner.

Though I believe there is some issue with the pink and blurple using a lot of the same colors.

 

[Himewad]

49 bounty chips? Check!

My fav is option 4, but you will run into dirty stack issues between 25c and $1. For that reason, my vote is option 2

33 minutes later...

Bravery comes cheap. Time to start the video and those plaques. You might want to add some blankets/pillows to that table first though...

I once put my 2yo daughter into the mailbox post hole that I dug. It was the cutest thing ever - her little head popping out of the ground with a concerned look. If anyone has a small child, I recommend they try this this with poker chips for a less morbid family photo.
