Long Time Lurker! (2 Viewers)

[chipsncoffee]

Hello, fellow poker enthusiasts! My name is Jay, and I’m located just outside Dayton, OH. I live with my younger brother, who is also a poker player, and he turned me on to this site. I’ve been looking around for a few months, and finally made the decision to create an account for my brother and myself to use. We’ve decided to try to chase down a nice set of chips for a table that we will be building soon! We are set on replicating the old Poker After Dark table as seen below. We also both love the Aurora Star and the Stardust chips. When we’re not playing small cash games and tournaments with our friends, my brother and I like to discuss strategy and play heads-up games. Hopefully we can get to know the folks here, talk some strategy, and upgrade from our current Wal-Mart chip set!

Also, I’m hopeful that some folks around here can help my brother and me build a table with lights under the padded rail!

Hello and welcome!!! Sounds like a great plan happy to hear the enthusiasm! There are tons of table builds floating around the forum loaded with info and advice, you wont have any trouble collecting ideas and answers to any questions you may have!!
Most here are very friendly, theres a few off the wall, but dont mind the little tid bits of drama, truly is a great community here!
Those are both lovely chip sets you've mentioned, keep your eye on the classifieds as great sets similar to those have been popping up frequently lately!!! Looking forward to some pictures of the future table build, hope to see you and your brother around the forum!
Oh and be careful hunting those pretty paulson's right off the break (+1 for skipping the China clay and ceramic option) hang on to your paypal accounts things get wild down in the rabbit hole!!!!
If you have time take a gander at the latest auction our forum is buzzing about most recently; https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/lakeshore-inn-set-820-chips.47647/

Best wishes, Brie

Greetings! Welcome to the community. You know, if there was a PCF commune, and this were the late 1960s, I'd consider living there.

I definitely will! I’ve built several tables for friends in the past, but I’ve never made one with LEDs and plexiglass(?), so I’m very much looking forward to it!

Also, is the Stardust Poker Mansion closed? If so, could I have the logo printed on a custom playing surface for a table if I manage to pick up some of their chips?

I’ve seen his work while lurking, and it’s amazing! I’ve also seen a TON of people vouch for him, so that’s definitely where I’ll be getting my custom cloth from!

I’ve heard that it’s been brought back, but I’m not sure where to find it! I always loved it because you got to see every hand, and Joe Stapleton wasn’t commentating.

I took these as inspiration for my custom set which I just designed and that I will order very soon.

They’ll be 43mm hybrid chips.

Awesome! I’m not familiar with hybrids. I’ve got some more research to do!

They are ceramic chips with a recessed area used to put a label.

The difference with ceramics is that they are full face printing.

I’ll create a post with all the information about my project when it’s done (cost, ...).
