    Post mockups for fun/science?

    Edit: I guess you meant Lavender and Retro Lavender, not Lavender and Purple. Retro Lavender is way too close in color though

    Post mockups for fun/science?

    While you're waiting for the color samples... Light situation - Morning sun through the window, no artificial light. HHR is a great, nice-feeling mold... if you have a fitting theme. And you do :)

    Not on purpose at first. But don't try to put them in a protector and hang them on your rear view mirror... they go limp fast in summer. (hello OOC thread!)

    The out-of-context thread

    CPC General discussion thread

    The more chips you order in total, the more flexible they seem to get with minimums and special requests. Either just so, or if you pay a certain premium. Not just this, but also keep in mind you may want to have a few guaranteed spares in case a chip breaks or goes MIA. Given the minimums and...

    Thread of Proofs // Add your custom chip proofs here

    I'd have no issue with the font, it fits nicely, but what what makes me go "ugh" is the ".50" instead of "50¢".

    Cyber Attack at MGM

    You can't ever pour enough money into defense and training. If someone really wants to get in, they will get in, no matter what you do. It's all just a question of how much energy an attacker is willing to invest.

    Cyber Attack at MGM

    Thanks to the bigger-better-faster craze over the past decade(s) in IT, we're at a point where all these systems that are in place are far too complex for any individual to comprehend, let alone see all the implications it comes with. We're in the "find out" phase now. Yet another data point...

    My attempt at 3D printing racks

    Requires precision far out of reach for a run-of-the-mill 3D printer and extra parts (bearings etc.). You're better off just buying a traditionally made roulette wheel instead of trying to print one.

    Paradise Los Angeles (CPC) pr0n!

    They're not being handled that much that they'd be collecting any amount of dirt worth mentioning. (Edit: inb4 OOC thread)

    Designing My First Cash Set (CPC)

    Late to the party, just accidentally stumbled upon this thread. I confirm the gray and butterscotch spots on the 6A18... that's one of mine :) Looks like some extras fell out of production and made it to CPC samples. And yes, the premium is brutal. But only bright white gives you the clean...

    Thread of Proofs // Add your custom chip proofs here

    Going down that road, you can forget about posting photos of your actual manufactured chips as well... The artwork in these proof previews usually has a way too low resolution and often is watermarked, so they'd have to manually redraw it if they wanted to use it.

    Do you shoot RAW? If not, try a different "picture style" or whatever it's called by your camera's manufacturer. Some of the factory presets really exaggerate colors.

    DG Arc Yellow is absolute fire, even/especially as base color. DG Peach, not my personal first choice but looking good both as spot and base. DG Yellow can be ok for thin spots. I just hate that it glows green-ish under UV and not yellow. DG Saturn... puke green sheen and looks wonky even as...

    Nothing replaces seeing the material in person. You can only go so far with trying to get a photo of it right, and then the viewer also needs to have proper viewing equipment or all your work was for nothing. And then the UV reactive colors... But yes, the yellows aren't their strength. DG Arc...

    Rounders Cologne (CPC) - CSQ-Mold

    And nothing's gonna take that away from you ever. It has not been done before at the time you designed your set, you were the OG who put in the effort to discover this good looking set combination - this sort of data is well documented on this forum. Now with this sorted, what's the best...

    Rounders Cologne (CPC) - CSQ-Mold

    Shouldn't have asked in the first place. There's no right to exclusivity on a color/spot combination. If someone copied the color scheme of my own chips, I'd rather feel flattered, not ripped off.

    3D3P rack spacers / vendor no longer onsite?

    Not as easy as it sounds. I know these services exist, but some models really heavily depend on a very carefully fine-tuned printing process. Example: my poker chip tubes, and also the core of OED's dice. I would absolutely not trust a printing service who I merely throw the STL file at to...
