First things first, I owe a huge amount of thanks to @ReallyGoodUsername and @JeepologyOffroad, as well as @Johnny5 for the tremendous amount of help and feedback they provided me throughout the design process. Like my chipping journey since starting out in 2018, the design of this set took many twists and turns and without their willingness to act as sounding boards for me, I'm certain this set wouldn't have been anywhere close to as good as it ended up being. Additionally, the countless amazing custom sets that this community has produced and continues to produce never ceases to serve as inspiration for my own designs. The process of creating this particular set was a true joy and in the end, it turned out better than I could have hoped - indeed, after getting it into play this past weekend for the first time, I would go so far as to say that this set brings me the most joy and satisfaction out of any of the sets I own. And with that, on to the reason we're all here!

Well done! I see the inspirations taken for the frac, $1, and $20, and the $5 and $100 around them were executed very, very nicely. Can't wait for my sample!
 
Everyone needs to stop stealing all my best ideas before I can tell them they are my ideas…I’m pretty sure I thought of these first.

Oh well…back to the drawing board.

I can’t speak to the frac and the $20, but the $1 was definitely inspired by the RPC $1. I actually struggled a fair bit about whether to go with it, given that the colours have been used in a few sets. In the end though, it’s a colour combo I couldn’t say no to, so here we are.

I wanted to bump the charity sample set sale just now, but it’s apparently too old and is now locked. I’ll be reaching out to all the people how donated in the next week or so once I have all the samples, dealer buttons, etc. sorted out!

Frac= Tiger Secondary quarter
$20= Casa Mango $20 by @Eloe2000

Was going to say Silver Saddle $1 for the $1, but same thing lol

Believe it or not, the frac design pre-dates the Tigers by a fair bit. In fact, it was one of the first chips I mocked up when I started working on this back in early 2022. I tried a bunch of iterations, but kept coming back to what ended up being the final design. In fact, strangely enough, the $1, $5, $20 and $100 all went through a literal shit-tonne of iterations (I spent a long time considering 3TA316 for the $1 and 414418 for the $5). In the end though, my final lineup ended up being not too far off of what some of my initial concepts were.

This was one of my very first mock-ups when starting out...

I remember thinking that the black 6QADS18 was genius until @ReallyGoodUsername was kind enough to point out that @Eloe2000 had used the exact same design in his Mango set! :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

These are stunners. Every time I think I'm "done" chipping, something makes me want another set. Thanks a lot.

I did a charity sale for sample sets a few months back, so most are already spoken for. I may have a very limited qty. left over once I get those samples out the door.

Congratulations Conor! Your set is really amazing!
Now organize the long-awaited Swiss meetup. I say this in a very interested way, because I could see these beauties IRL!

PS: Thanks for sharing. The $100 chip inspires me a lot for my own project.

Will be working on getting these packed up and out to you all in the next week. I don't think I grabbed shipping information from everyone, so if each of you would be so kind as to PM your full names and shipping addresses as soon as convenient, I'd be grateful! Will update once all the packages are out. Thanks again to all of you for your generous donations, I hope you like these chips as much as I do!

P.S. I failed to photograph them, but the extra $1 and $0.25 chips from the original CPC Hoser Hut set are of course included!
 
Also getting in line for a potential sample set... fingers crossed! The $1 chip is especially nice.

Congrats on your new set!
