"The Signal" - ASM No Mold 1890's Inspired Cash Set (1 Viewer)

[dew4au]

Hello all. When I started my thread about the tournament set I currently have in the works, a few people mentioned they had never seen my original No Mold cash set. The concept came from the same Reconstruction era boom town, but it coincided with the re-introduction of the No Mold. That got me pointed in the direction of a solids set based on the stationary of the hotel. Now, the breakdown is a little wonky, so let me explain a bit. I'm primarily a tournament player. I enjoy cash games, but when I get people to come over it can include a wide range of players. Most are comfortable with small buyin tournaments that last 2.5 - 3 hours. This was my first custom set and I thought it may be my only, so I attempted to dual-role this set. Well, as it turns out my group generally prefer using my TH&C mixed or Bahamia sets for the tournaments, so the No Molds only get brought out for cash games. Given the nature of the crowd the most common game is .05/.10, which is what I planned for. I still enjoy the set very much, but I wanted a dedicated tournament set that gets me up to a T500 so I can get them in play more often. Hence, my new project.

Without further ado, The Signal.

Thanks for checking them out!

What size inlay? What shade of blue?

Thank you, sir!

Inlay size is 1 inch, I believe. It's just blue. This order was super simple. White, blue, yellow, chocolate.

Love everything about these. I swear I would have picked the same colors, all sets need a chocolate chip. A friend has a similar tournament set with solid colors on the same mold I also really like. The no molds shuffle wonderfully.

Awesome set man. Such a perfect look with the no mold.

I love the set so much that I still have the ripped page out of the CT calendar from 2011 hanging on my wall.

Those are also some VERY sharp macro photos. You can really see the texture of the no-mold mold.

Also, I'm amused that a few of the chips were at a perfect angle to cause moire on the thumbnails produced by the forum software (or my browser).

The textured no molds feel great.

Yeah, I had to double check that photo after I uploaded it. I thought the camera messed up or it was corrupted during the transfer.
