All the Ewing chips I've handled have been really light. I love the mold, but it that the norm ?

Kickstarter or GoFundMe to commission fabrication of a CPC "PCF Mold"! You're not a real member unless you have a set!
Joking... mostly.
PCF doesn't have any crazy rich members to pony up the cash?

Your best? Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen.
Apologies in advance
I’m working on something just need a bit more before I can place it, contact you soon
Pics, or it didn't happen. Maybe we should share anyway.. boy id sure hate to make the same chip for my second set that you're planning...

Keep in mind that the machines that makes these chips are steam powered and are likely 70+ years old. They require pretty specifically machined parts that can stand up to high pressures and high temps, with fairly intricate details like the more complicated mold patterns.
We asked JimB about new molds back in the day at Chiptalk and the answer was basically the same.

He's explained a few times, but it always comes back up.

Ok. I’ll be the snob…. (You’re all snobs)
Why is $75,000 so expensive? Kickstart it, PCF will fund it in like a week, and all involved get an amazing deal on the first batch.

Getting a consensus on a mold would be next to impossible.
And on top of that, not sure why people think CPC needs a new mold anyway? I assume people mean a THC-esque mold? If so, play with a Jockey mold set. It's what you are looking for.
And pay no attention to the "but it's a jockey" naysayers. What in the world does a top hat and a cane have to do with poker? It's only marketing brand recognition. Had Paulson gone with a hot dog & coke bottle design all these years no one here would ever had recommended putting a top hat and cane on a poker chip.

^^ I agree 1000% percent. I think, push come to shove, people would rather have in order
1) More color options
2) additional spot configurations (I'd personally love a 818 spot, and at level 2 pricing .... or the claw spot)
3) molds
And It's been said many times that some spots, no matter the cost and such, can't be done (V spots).
I mean, If I (played) and hit the lottery, I'd definitely send a ton of $$ for R&D. I don't play, so, there is that.
Oh .. and I have a set of Jockey molds, and love them. its such a great mold

Is DSQ in production? I might do an add on.
DSQ cutoff will not be before March 2024

Regarding custom molds, this has come up before. It seemed like the most popular option was ARODIE. You’re still talking about 150 people ponying up $500 or 75 people paying $1000 - before a single chip gets made. Ownership of the mold also turns into a quagmire with that many people involved.
I’d happily be in for 1K but I’m not sure there are even 30 people who feel the way I do, nevermind 75.

Count me in on some crowdfunding for new colour/spot pattern R&D.

Been putting off thinking about an order because I can't come up with an inlay I like... Maybe time to hire someone else to do it
Is there a calendar for what molds run when?
I hereby give permission to any PCF member to use my Casino Royale inlay art if they want to do a custom reproduction using CPC. The only caveats are 1) you cannot modify the inlay art, and 2) you cannot use the Large Crown mold. Everything else is up for grabs.

Many questions in this thread (mostly answered somewhere else at some point in the past) but I'll do my best to go over most of them over the weekend.
