Custom artwork group buy. US/CAN CARDS MOLD (9 Viewers)

I am close to jumping on this, but I need help.
I have a design that I used http://poker.is-great.net/. for.

I have it imported into Inkscape and have everything finalized except for the edges.

How are people doing their edges?
I know pokerisgreat.net also has an edge tool, but I don't see an edge for my 6d18 chip design.
Is there anyone that can help me?
Thanks.
 
Does anyone have the HEX codes to match the colors on the CPC Poker Chip Design tool?

Light Blue
Dayglo Yellow
Dayglo Pink
Lavender
Dayglo Tiger
 
Me checking in on this thread in comparison to when it started up...

Just to make people aware that, even though I will be placing my own separate personal order for here in the UK, I have spoken to @timinater and we are both happy for people to piggyback on my artwork with revised names and locations / spot patterns etc.

This is a V1 design and I'm probably going to go with New Wales Club now, but the option is there for peeps:

That was due to no CARDS mold. There cards mold has +20 resilience to Armageddon
Exactly. It is well-documented that molds with indention/markings are more prone than smooth-finish chips to picking up hooker juice and nasty gunk during play, and that exposure to such contaminated chips by the poker playing masses helps build up resistance to viruses.
 
Had a few minutes between chores today to play around and snap a few clips.

Chips used for comparison purposes, stacks of 20:
The Beach ChipCo ceramics
Hardwell Underground cards mold ceramics
The Beach ASM & CPC combination Hourglass clay
Santa Ysabel Paulson RHC clay
Emerald Bay Matsui ceramics (qty 15)

Weight, stacks of 20:
ASM/CPC: 162g
Cards: 194g
Paulson: 197g
Chipco: 202g

Table bump test

Riffle clank test

Shuffle and cut down test

Height, stacks of 20:

Notes:
  • If you try to spin these, you will find plenty. They do not spin on their own, which is to say they don't float if you aren't trying to spin them.
  • These will work best in Paulson racks, and they fit a touch more flush than Paulsons do in them. In a ChipCo rack they will have about half-chip's worth of room. In a Paulson rack there is about 1/8th-chip's worth of room.
  • These oddly feel a bit more hollow than clay, even though they're ceramic and weigh the same as Paulson RHC. I'm not sure why that is.

Takeaways:
These aren't clay chips. Don't expect them to act like clay.
These aren't flat ceramic blanks. Don't expect them to act like flat ceramics.
These are something off the beaten path that perform admirably. They stack good enough, they weigh the right amount, and they fit in normal chip racks.
These are NOT better than clay chips, and they are NOT better ChipCo ceramic blanks.
They ARE better than plastics (unless you're into that kind of thing).
They ARE the best value for custom chips that you will find.
 
As you can see I added the Aces labels for right now, I am working on that project as you are reading this

Please hold and listen to the music as I learn how to add the picture from Poker Chip design Tool

Figured it out as you can see, still working on the label

On the Poker Chip Design Tool, is there a way to get more colors? Or does that happen when I pay one of the designers to get me to the finish line?
I know I want a brighter yellow and maybe a more vibrant red.
Then I have tried 100 color combos on my 50 cent 50/50 chip(Sean's green and pink is absolutely incredible)

work in progress but a great time kill, of course with a purpose...........

These markings are on one edge of every chip. It’s not super visible with the naked eye, but obvious when zoomed in and focused. Doesn’t detract from the chip IMO ... just pointing it out.

Are there any samples of these in Canada that I could borrow? If not, I have a Scrub Donkey sample set in-bound...how would they compare? Apologies if this is in the thread...I looked and could not find it.
 
Quality will be extremely similar between the cards mold and the Scrub Donkeys. The Scrubs are a flat ceramic though. Everything else should be pretty much the same, I think. I have a sample set of the scrubs, so I’ll take some pictures side by side and share in a bit.

The only differences I notice between the card molds and Scrub Donkeys (if my deduction of those and the standard Aces being the exact same) is that the SD chips are more easily prone damage and spinners.
 
Cards Mold v. Scrub Donkeys. Feel is similar except that you can obviously feel the texture of the cards mold on the chip face. Weight was basically the same, just under 10 grams per chip averaged over ten chips. Scrub Donkeys were slightly taller stacked.
