Has anyone ever felted a limit set with all 43mm chips? (1 Viewer)

[JMC9389]

If yes, how did it work out for you?

Was there a significant decrease in room on the table to the point where it obstructed game action? 4mm may not seem like much when jumping from 39 to 43mm chips, but if you line up five barrels of chips next to each other, that's 2cm more space than 39mm chips would take up.

I'm considering the epicness of a 43mm limit set, but is it feasible and practical?

I did not realize that the bolded word was in many chippers' lexicons (at least here).

I follow limit sets and limit discussion fairly closely. I don’t recall seeing an all 43mm limit set. Usually only the value chip is 43mm, but not the workhorse chip. But that’s not to say it can’t be done. I know there have been all 43mm tourney sets (less chips though)…

Maybe the larger diameter would also allow for higher stacks?

Go even further and do 44mm CPC’s

"Chips?" What is this, amateur hour?

 

[Rhodeman77]

Yes, and my players love them.

I would only need 6 more racks of quarters and dollars each to cover limit night stakes for my group on my Jack's Card Room set

Step it up to 48mm Fat Hats and... USE BOTH HANDS!

The difference between 39 and 43mm chips is literal pennies. I'm definitely going to go 43mm if it's not too obtrusive on play. I think it will be more than fine. Attendance with my local crew usually ranges between 5 and 7 players, very rarely 4 or 8. No more than 8 though. Eight racks of 43mm chips to start out on an 8 foot table shouldn't be a problem, as long as I use the value chips for add ons and top offs. Adding more barrels of the workhorse chip would start to get tight, though.

I give every player 2 racks to start then plaques for rebuys and add-ons. We play 7 handed on an 8 person Chan-man table. No problem at all with space being an issue

I'm just doing 43mm for the value chip

Really, I'm just showing off and have nothing to contribute here.

I see 12 racks total. Why would you want 13 total. That's communist talk!

Get two racks of value chips. This is the way.

I’m about to order a 1200 chip cash set of 43mm if we can figure out how to get the colors to print correctly….

BRPRO?

BRPRO?

Yes. It’s been a learning experience. What looks good on a screen can look kind of different in print

 

[Goldfish]

I love the 43 mm chip. The only problem with an all 43 mm set is that the higher denominations do not stand out as much. only the $5s are 39 mm. But the players love them…….

 

[Rhodeman77]

There is even room for plaques on the table.

Over 10.2g per chip (~10.5g & 10.3g respectively), unfortunately with aluminum flakes not lead

It's okay you get confused. I've dealt with Australians alot and am used to it.
