Three Putt Poker $20 Plaque Mock-Up (1 Viewer)

[PAZ]

Wowza! I really like what you and Johnny are cooking up. Can't wait to see all of them fanned out on the felt. Oh, and in stacks too of course.

Shipped them this morning, arrival should be Tuesday

Easy to lose some chips on that cloth!

 

[bivey]

I dunno, I liked it just the way it looks in post #1.

I finally got around to checking out the samples DD and OWPS sent me. I'm going to stick with my original plan and go with the 82mm size for the $20. I really like this size. If (lol...okay - when) I get around to upgrading my hundos I'll go even bigger.

Really stoked about this one. Just wanted to share. Just gotta work with J5 on the edges and then figure out what size I want to go with.

I've always loved the 3 putt graphic. I will admit though, the 4 corner denom is a bit loud to me. Maybe I'm in the minority I dunno. Otherwise, I would consider a slightly smaller center graphic and just put "$20" along the short side edges in one font color vs four corners filled in with a background color and denom.

At any rate, if you ship it as is, its still beautiful.

Matsui! Do it.

 

[MoscowRadio]

Wow! So awesome, Josh! Both Three Putt Poker sets are two of my all-time favorites, so this is very cool to see!

 

[stocky]

Matsui! Do it.

This^^^

links I like the golf ball dimple around the edge.

J5 and I are currently discussion options. It sounds like OWPS doesn't recommend anything on the edges due to alignment and/or image "stretching" around the corners. I'm leaning toward solid black at the moment. All of the samples I have are plain or nearly plain on the edges. I didn't realize it until I went to check them out last night.

The Matsui route is an intersting one. Does anyone know their minimums and/or costs? J5 might murder me if I decide to go that route in the end....

minimum matsui order is 100 plaques i think, but cost is only one first born human child.

Hmmm, no kids to offer. Damn. Oddly enough, I was de-cluttering my desk drawers and found the invoices and catalog from the Matsui GB I ran a few years ago. Ah, memories

 

[SixSpeedFury]

100 minimum. Need a group buy to get this to happen with Matsui.

doesn't necessarily have to be YOUR kid. get creative!

Plenty of options then. Lots of little rugrats running around these days

Those look really nice, Josh. Bold. Bright. Beautiful. christ, i sound like a laundry detergent commercial....

Not to last-minute derail your project, but have you considered the GOCC ceramic plaques (recessed center, with either rounded or angle-cut corners -- several sizes) or the MSK Gaming acrylic plaques (incredibly inexpensive, near-Matsui level quality, also in several sizes with no miniums) ?

If you haven't committed yet (or even if you have), they are worth checking out as viable options to the more-typical solid rounded-corner ceramic plaques. The MSK offerings (acrylics!) are particularly attractive, and only average around $4 each.

How about the pattern from the face of a club?

A plaque or two will look like a putter... a tall stack will look like a wedge.

And the pattern will should easily stretch around the corners, being horizontal...

Just spit-ballin'...

 

[RowdyRawhide]

Like it! Is that the 82mm?

Thanks for the suggestions and feedback Dave. I do like GOCC's plaques for certain projects but I just wasn't feeling them for this one. Re: MSK's plaques, yes - they look very cool and I will definitely be keeping them in mind for future needs

Yes, 82mm

Any update on this idea? Did you have the plaques made. It's a sweet concept.

 

[gopherblue]

Yes, he made them. And they are fantastic.
