Making a new CPC Set. Anyone do all 43mm? (1 Viewer)

[IceQueenCassa]

Anyone make a full set from 43mm?
What do you guys think of this design?
Edit: I used $10 chips because we play 5/10 stud and 1/2 no limit. No fracs for me

I've handle a few 43 sets although I do not own one personally. They do feel nice. A future project perhaps. Regarding your lineup, I'd recommend skipping 10 value chip (introduce quarters?). Otherwise, the set is looking pretty solid. BTW, what's up with the cat on the inlay?

I don't have a 43mm CPC set but my players like the 43mm sets that I do have. I don't personally like the feel of the scroll mold.

Agreed on skipping the $10. I don't love the cat in the middle of the denom especially on the 5; I don't mind the simple inlay but the cat elsewhere could look good. Is "dealer's choice" your game? Do you never play only one type of game?

They're all 44mm and they're spectacular

I had a 44mm scroll mold set design 90% complete and was ready to order. I love the feel of the 44mm scroll!
I ended up not ordering it because I was able to throw my money at some 43mm Paulsons instead. But I might get back to it someday. Part of the problem is that CPC didn't run that mold very often, like not even once a year. So the wait was always going to be long. But maybe new ownership will do things differently.

Clean, simple design, looks good.

I like the scroll mold and the selection on the 44 is more limited in mold options. I have a BRPro 43 set and everyone loves it when its on the table.

I would move the blue chip to the 1 spot and drop the 10 denom. While everyone will say something, it really should only go with a .50, 2, 10, 50 set.

43mm cpc's have a really nice weight to them

limited spot patterns and molds deter me from making a set however

limited spot patterns

That was a challenge too, especially since I hate a few of the available spot patterns. But you can make it work.

That's why you go with solids

We play a lot of 5/10 dealers choice stud or 1/2 PLO8. I have another set for tourneys, but we do a LOT of dealers choice.

I love my 44mm CPCs!! I highly encourage you to do it!!

WRT your design. I like it!! Simple and clean, yet elegant. It reminds me of old school TRK designs.

Good luck!!

My 44mm set is almost 10 years old:

Make sure you print the inlays as you progress on your design. The size of the 'Poker Room' seems too small to me but once you print it you'll know if that's the case.

Thanks man! I am excited for when they re-open and I can place an order here. Glad to see you did a big set too

I think between the limited options, the high cost and the fact that 44mm only ran about once every 18 months, the sets are few and far between. I do have a shuffle stack of Scroll 44mm and absolutely love them. I have a tournament set designed but don't know if I will ever get around to making them happen. I think they would be amazing. Time will tell.

Wow, i had never seen your set before. Those are bad ass my friend!!

Please get rid of the $10 denom. Just get more $5s and more $25s.

You'll need to adjust the kerning on those numbers, especially the 10 and the 100. Many typefaces have space before and after the number 1 and it leads to problems.
Right now, the zeros are way too far to the right...it makes the 10 look like 1 0, and the 100 look like 1 00.
Just needs to be tightened up so they look visually the same distance as the space between the 00s.
