Starting a proper thread for this project now. Mike will be along and add anything I missed later.
To clarify my answers elsewhere first.......
To bring the two scroll molds into action for the first time by us requires a lot more work than a regular mold. The 44mm version needs a slug mold also so it is three molds that need setting up.
To cover our costs for that I have figured out how many chips need to be made.
For the purpose of this calculation, there is some 'trading' possible between the two sizes, so lets say
One 39mm chip = 1 unit
One 44mm chip = 1.5 units
We need a total of 7,750 units. Its not a high target, just to cover the setup will satisfy us and then we have 2 more molds up for the future.
I have requirements (color and spot samples, advertising samples etc.) outside of the Rounders project which will eat up 2,950 units
So that only leaves you all 4,800 units to hit to make this happen!!
Below is a really crude mockup showing the original artwork on the 5 original colors + 2 suggested 44mm's.
Remember, the only thing cast in stone is that the chips will be on SCROLL mold (39/44mm) and will use the original art.
YOU MAY (within reason) add denominations
YOU MAY change colors or spot patterns and choose either/both sizes (preferably a mix)
If you have an alternative design you wish to use the Scroll molds for and can meet the timescales indicated then I can include that in the numbers.
The minimum order per person will be 300 chips total as usual. I'm happy to make that 300 for the two sizes combined. Anyone who wants less or only wants sample sets only will co-ordinate this with Mike and he will tally those up like a mini group buy.
The minimum per chip will be very flexible unless you are the only person ordering a specific combo in which case I will have to deal with that case by case per usual.
In the same way as I dealt with FDL, I'm going to open a window starting right now for people to commit to this.
1. The prices will follow the table on our website as usual.
2. You need to preferably indicate your order details either here or in the other forum, and by email to me please at david.spragg@zen.co.uk
3. You need to pay a 25% minimum deposit by 24 December (4 weeks) and you will get a credit off your final invoice for 1% of that deposit.
4. You need to pay the balance by 15 January
5. If your scroll mold order is not for Rounders then I will need final art by 22 January
Unless anything comes along to change out schedule I predict we would be able to start production during February.
