Quarter pie set (1 Viewer)

[BonScot]

Thinking about getting a small (400 chips) quarter pie set for my 6 max games.

I’m getting fed up lugging 1000 plus chips to other people’s houses so a smaller set seems like a good idea. Obviously I could take 400 chips from a bigger set and put them in a smaller case but that’s just mental

I’ll get 100 of each of the denoms (plus maybe 20 of the NCVs).

The inlay is just something I’m messing around with so it’ll probably change.

#1 Mandarin red / Dayglo green

#2 Black / Dayglo peacock

#3 Grey / Canary

#4 Blurple / Dayglo tiger

#5 White / Dayglo pink

What do you think?

Version using the old school colours instead of Dayglo below.

I love 1/4 pies. Great job. Do it.

I love them as well. Just need to come up with a better inlay.

I've voted Yes, because I think 1/4 pie is really nice, but I'be careful with what colours I used to avoid dirt stacks.
Personally I'd love a 1/4 pie set with monochrome colors: black witch charcoal, imperial blue with light blue and so on.

I thought about doing that but I the two chip colours to have some contrast. I’ve got a CPC sample set I’m messing with to make sure that there’s no dirty stacks.

I'll change 25p or 1£, maybe I'll use blue.

Or even…

Both are great.

I had this as a tournament set
25s-5K
I really liked playing that set
If I could find my old set somehow they could take me to town on the price

That will be my CPC set if I ever do one. The monochrome 1/4 pies are my favorite.

I would probably do some kind of version of the BCC Riverboats

 

[BonScot]

Updated OP after messing around with my sample set. Pretty sure I’ve seen most of these combinations in some old TRK chips.

I want to keep each chip to two colours. I think the riverboats use three.

1/4 pie good. Scrown eww.

I was thinking along the lines of TRKs. What mould would you go for?

I also like the DSQ so might go with that.

TRK made LCrown as well, but I'm tremendously biased.

Uhoh, the old dirtiest stack set ever making another appearance haha

 

[Irish]

I would avoid using light blue and gray back to back, they're nearly indistinguishable on the table from a distance and you may have dirty stack issues. Also check out light green with chocolate (instead of DG).

Maybe something like this (most any of the blues would work for the 1)

 

[Irish]

Also just an FYI, if you want 5 distinct chips in the set, you'd need to order at least 500 chips.

Would you consider trading black for retro blue on peacock chip? Retro blue is a beautiful color. Just check @detroitdad sunset $1 for an example. That chip made me love this color.
I like them by the way!

I never once had any issues with that

I ditched light blue once I got my sample set out. Like you said it’s vey close to grey. Swapped it for Dayglo peacock.

So instead you haul around 600 extra chips that you know you're not going to use? No, THAT is mental! LOL.

Q-pies look awesome. Don't let my comment stop you from buying MOAR CHIPES! Do it!

Buying a smaller case that takes 5 racks is probably the answer but you know… MOAR chips

Looks good. Might be too close to Blurple though…

I’ll get the sample set back out tonight and see.
