Question, if the 414 spot pattern is a lvl 3 and a 418 is a lvl 6, why is the 414418 a lvl 11? 6+3 = 9

I only want two colors. Well the base color and two colors. So three colors I suppose. If I do this set the way I want this chip is gonna be $4.40 per chip lol.

With more stages of punching/pressing, the odds of chip breakage go up - and breakage in a late stage destroys the labor from all prior stages.
So you get more rejects, AND the rejects are more costly.

Gotcha
After the sticker shock has worn off, you'll be glad you had them made. Five years from now you'll still be looking at these chips in awe, and you won't quite remember (or care) exactly what level they were or how much they cost. Go for it!
Another thing level 11 spots have going for them: They make level 8 chips look like a bargain!

Damn straight. I don't know that I've ever had anything where I've sunk as much money into it as I did my chips with zero buyer's remorse.After the sticker shock has worn off, you'll be glad you had them made.

Indeed. Around here we wear seller's remorse like a badge of honor

I hope it is a .25 chip. Bonus points for making chips that cost 20 times more than they're worth!!!

Wow I really like all of those. I don't see anything too expensive yet!
That's because I designed them before they introduced new spot patterns
Ship it.
To avoid too much derailing of this thread, anyone who wants to see the denoms and discuss my fantasy chip idea further, here is the thread I created for it awhile back: http://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/poseidons-palace-mockups.3531/
Still waiting to hit the lottery (I think that whole not buying tickets thing is what's hurting me here)

Custom nickels show up from time to time. Very awesome for that reason.

Its a $1 chip so I would probably have about 200-300 of them made for a 1k chip set I think. Anyway, I just posted my first attempt at a mock-up in the mock-up area of the site if you want to take a look.
418 punches used to exist but broke all the time. I will try and explain simply why.
Obviously 1/8 wide pins are very small and not very strong. There comes a point when the material you are punching is almost as strong as the punch, and unless all pins struck the chip surface at precisely the same millisecond one can easily bend or break. It is very hard to make 4 pins come into contact at exactly the same time, even allowing the chip flexes a fraction.
Take a 4 legged bar stool and cut a little off one leg. It will wobble. Impossible for all 4 legs to touch the floor (if it is flat
but i really really really like 8-legged bar stools......said the chip octopus
Great stuff all-around, David. Thanks for all you do regarding this hobby/business/insanity.
