Best Rack Size for older ASM(CPC) Chips…66.7? (4 Viewers)

[Old State]

I have 2003 era ASM Circle Square molds that I’ve had in 67.7 racks for 20+ years. That said I tried them in a 66.7 rack I got from Bank Supply and they fit …very snug…but with no force. Is this bad for the chips? The 67.7 molds definitely have about 1/4 chip width of play.

I’ve read that the Apache Chipco racks are somewhere in the middle…around 67…which may be perfect. Is this still the case and does anyone have experience storing circle square ASM/CPC chips in them?

I have Apache Chipco racks arriving next Wednesday for some minty 2010ish ASMs. I'll let you know how they fit.

The Apache racks arrived a day.

My ASMs are from approx 2003. The Apache Chipco racks are a good fit for them (very little wriggle room, yet not tight), but I wouldn't use them if you plan on displaying the chips in the racks. All of the racks I received look horrible.

Also, the end barrels are a smidge smaller than the middle barrels, but these chips still drop right in. My old Chipco racks from late 1990s also had some tighter end barrels.

Upon further inspection, these are total crap. The interior walls of the middle-most barrel are not straight. The ribs bow out towards the second and fourth barrels. It also bows up in the middle. This holds true for all 10 of the trays I received.

These went in the trash. I just ordered some Justin racks from @justincarothers .

Well thank you for posting all of this! Saved many of us money and aggravation.

I think I’m just going to order the 66.7s from Banksupply.

I wish they had 65.7 for Tina Chips
