Jpietrella: Custom 43mm Relabel Cash Set (1 Viewer)

[jpietrella]

I was all fine and mostly content with the sets I had. Then I tried out some 43mm sets. *sigh* I mostly blame @upNdown and @sheikh617.

Anyways, I thought this might take forever, but I've made it just about far enough for it to be playable. Still no idea what I'm going to do for an inlay, but I suspect it'll have some sort of Boston or Charlestown theme to it. And I need to find a designer.

Current breakdown:
$0.25: 100x
$1: 200x
$5: 400x
$25: 100x
$100: 20x

Made some significant changes to the lineup for frac, $1, $20 and $100 chips and got rid of the $500 chip. I like this a lot better.

Blew this lineup up one more time and after taking a bath on some of the chips, I think we've landed on a winner. Need to get everything together to decide on whether or not to keep all denoms 43mm by using the gray chip as $100, or, add in the white Fat Hats as the $100 chip. I'm leaning towards the latter but either way this'll be a fantastic cali lineup.

Trying to have a perfect “progression” with these 43mm relabel sets is always super tough. If you like the chips, that’s enough. This is a sweet set, guest set pls!!

Overlabel or murder?

 

[upNdown]

Charlestown theme

So either bank robbers or crippling drug addiction? Hmm, that’ll be a tough call.

Beautiful chips. I heart all of them except the white hundo. But I never have hundreds in my stacks so that probably isn’t a real concern for me.

Unsure at the moment.

Please no murder on those GV!

I mostly blame @upNdown and @sheikh617.

Right and my inspiration was 100% @sheikh617 so it’s pretty clear whose fault this is.
But the truth is that raking and stacking 43mm chip pots is just more fun!

 

[sheikh617]

Fuck those kids. Nah jk, I agree with this. Will save money for murder costs too.

Normally, I'd agree with you. But is there anything great about these inlays? They're not textured, the art seems terrible (IMO) and they're not actually shaped. If I decide to do full relabels, I'd be open to other suggestions or trades for a replacement to try to save them.

It's true! Why is it so much better?

 

[bernielomax]

Find local historical building you like associated with illegal activities in the prohibition era. Have artist make a rendering of said building.

Call it "The Blind Tiger"

Those are all excellent points. I try not to murder chips with some history that are usable as is in other sets but ultimately I also think it's better the chips see play. Either way........ bring that shit over when done

 

[jpietrella]

Welp, those were some quick changes. I think the updated lineup in the OP works a lot better.

 

[upNdown]

You had me at red five
Edit - oh is that orange? Close enough!

 

[jpietrella]

This is changing again, slightly. Bringing in the SB T25 to use as the frac and the MS 5k will be used as a cali $100. I'm trying to use the Paulson chip tool resource here and I'm realizing I don't know exact colors of base chips and 8vs. Can anyone who has these and a sample set or just happens to know, help? Here are my guesses:

• SB T25 - day green, Hawaii flower and lilac 8v
• SB T5k - blue grain, carnation and white 8v
• Grand Vic $1k prim - blaze orange (old), day blue and metallic gold 8v
• SB T500 - orchid, canary yellow and carrot 8v
• Majestic Star $5k - showboat grey, salmon and sky blue 8v
• RPC $1k - arc yellow, off white and horizon blue 8v

The 43 mm chip is awesome. Both the 8v and bear claw patterns are awesome too. I could not decide which way to go so I just got both… yum yum. Love them.

Badass

I am but a humble peasant compared to the above.

 

[jpietrella]

Lineup updated....again.

Saved. (From me at least)

 

[JeepologyOffroad]

Yeah now we’re talkin. Nice set

 

[upNdown]

Thank god. The inlay on those grand vics is the gold standard.

PCF SVU approves.

Fair point. I'm not in favor of murder. But I'm also not in favor of the grand victoria photo inlays.

Sophie's choice chips

 

[jpietrella]

Tooling around with these. I'd love to have all the denoms as faux-shaped inlays, all scallop. I noticed the poker chip design tool here doesn't support shaped inlays for 48mm. Any chance that can be added? @Tommy

You should replace the white with blaze orange. white chips get dirty really fast, and blaze orange is unbelievable in person.

Probably don't want to mix Blaze with Arc Yellow, although it is a sexy chip.

Also I’m pretty sure Jesus and Michael Jordan weep every time somebody makes a white $100.
