Windwalker’s Chipping Journey in Pr0n0grAph1C Detail (67 Viewers)

[JMC9389]

sorry; I think there’s a misunderstanding. I was just posting in my thread about what I was learning about chipping and some of my solutions. I have zero interest in coordinating a group buy, I really don’t have the time / inclination.

Once I get the prototype and see if it all works, I’m happy to pass on the manufacturer contact to someone who wants to deal with that.

Saving your energy for the Paulson NAGB I see

All kidding aside, I get it. Group buys take a lot of time and patience to run.

But seriously, cut me in to whatever you're up to. I promise to be quiet about it. I'll bring cookies to the design and logistics meetings

This looks like what you were shooting for, but these do flex some when loaded.

Shoulda stopped when I was ahead and helpful! Was just kidding, pricing is hilarious compared to what people have been paying for these things.

Once you get samples in, I'm sure someone would actually run a GB, or someone will pick up 1k of them as a Vendor.

We interrupt this poker chip accessory not-a-group-buy to talk about Windwalker's chips.

So this is the chip that took me down the rabbit hole. This will be my last true look at them, because I’ve found that my chip tastes have evolved, and I’ll be letting every single one of these go in an upcoming sale. I got most of them off-forum for an incredible deal, so I’ll be passing some of that on to those who want it.

I'm curious to know in what way your tastes have evolved, i.e. what is it about these that you no longer find so attractive?

I find them attractive; but the idea was always to narrow down to a few keeper sets. This one is a fantastic chip, but I prefer some of the others I’ve gotten!

I can't wait to see what the keeper sets end up being. Some stunning sets to choose from.
AND....I am super excited at the prospect at some of the discards hitting the market!

Let me guess...

1. Giraffes
2. Boats
3. Outpost
4. After 1-3, who cares really.

Jacks have to be between 1 and 2, IMO.

Here is my collection of 3893 Paulson Classics, all of which will go on the classifieds forum soon.

You always remember your first one.

I'd definitely be content with a set of these. They're a nice simple chip. Maybe I'll be able to snag 500 when you post them up. Thanks for the pictures

I would be very surprised by that

Only speaking in terms of spot progression, design and appearance. Some boat chips are pretty bland and uninspired.

I don’t think boat chips are in the 1 or 2 position either.

we need a new ranking, @Windwalker!

Do the new birdcages have bench dogs? I bet that would take them over the top.

TRKs??

 

[big_alv77]

Please pardon my ignorance but which set is commonly known as "Boats"?

Is it Empress Star or Aurora Star...or something else? Is it a cash or tourney set? Thanks.

All of those plus Pacific Star.

 

[big_alv77]

Thank you. I haven't heard of Pacific Star yet. I guess I need to catch up on my reading.

So, does "Boats" refer to the NAGB sets?

 

[navels]

No, just the Empress Star, Aurora Star, and Pacific Star NAGBs.

 

[big_alv77]

@Windwalker, I wanted to thank you for capturing all of these great pics of your amazing sets...and for sharing your journey and insight with us. I am intrigued on multiple levels. Looking forward to more posts. Thanks.

 

[big_alv77]

No, just the Empress Star, Aurora Star, and Pacific Star NAGBs.

Thank you.

I am, as promised, on a moratorium of purchasing full / rare sets from the classifieds so that others don’t feel like I’m bulldozing! GLWS!

Bulldoze away!! It makes it easier to track down chips if they're all in the same location...LOL!!

Seriously though...VERY NICE chip collection!!

 

[Parrothedd]

You know, @Windwalker , these sets and your subsequent sales, are not really what we mean when we tell newbies to “get samples.”

 

[Windwalker]

A final look at my ESST set before I send them off. They're lovely, but ultimately, not a keeper set for me.

 

[Parrothedd]

Meh....

My house is available for storage....

@alecnetwoodworks may be able to come up with something for you if my offer isn't sufficient.

I assumed that you would have local workers for custom work. If TChan is busy, please reach out to @alecnetwoodworks. He's done some cool work thus far, and I believe is up for fully custom orders as well.

OMG, what a sick sick collection!
