CPC Sample Set Arrived (1 Viewer)

[ChippinUp]

My CPC Rounders Scroll sample set arrived today. All I can say is wow. The advice on samples does not disappoint and in this case has opened my eyes to a whole new appreciation for CPC offerings.

Initially I thought the rounders theme might be something interesting to have but after feeling the quality the custom sets have even more appeal.

These chips could clearly use an oil as they arrive very chalky. I noticed in comparison to mint Paulsons I had an easier time shuffling these.

Hats off to CPC. You have a new customer for sure.

Custom FTW!

Keep mind that the CPC molds can feel a lot different, so make sure you get samples of each you are considering using.

Thanks guys!

Are the inlays on the rounders chips applied in the same fashion as a Paulson? Was curious if they are set into the chip itself or applied more like a gear label?

I agree, the Rounders are great!

Like all CPC chips, these are pressed into the chip as part of the compression process, so yes, the same as Paulson.

Thanks!

I’m sitting here watching rounders and basically staring at the chips every scene they are in lol

Same, but not the same, I’d suggest. I removed the inlays from a rack of CPC, and it was easy. As in, really, really easy. I think I had it down to about 5 seconds per chip. I’ve never removed a Paulson inlay, but after reading a few threads about it, it sounds significantly more difficult. So, even though they are both inlaid during the compression process, something about it seems very different.

Well that’s sort of good to hear I think lol

I was wondering if you down the road swapping out for new labels would be as difficult as a Paulson “murder” but sounds like it isn’t….

I agree there are differences, but the concept and general method is the same which I why I said what I did. The devil is in the details.

Here is a great thread on the whole process with some fantastic photos:
