| |  Farmer’s Custom Chipco “Welty’s Card Room” Cash Set
Well, after many many months of research & looking over samples I finally have my cash set for my home game. I want to say thanks to jldecarlo & VARoadstter, your Chipco sets were truly inspiring. Folks, if you haven’t seen their sets, you’re missing out. I hope that this set helps to contribute something back to this forum!! Big thanks to everyone at ChipTalk! The chip layout was based largely on the Chipco Luxor $5 Nefertiti chip. This chip is my favorite of all chips and I love the way the text is laid out. I went with Chipco because after getting samples from every company, Ceramic & Clay… they’re the best quality ceramic out there, period. Design work was done by Johnny5. John does awesome work and converted my detailed thoughts & ideas to a chip design perfectly. Thanks for everything John! Your sample set is on the way! Thanks to Dave @ Homepokerchip.com too! I’m blown away Dave! Some advice for people thinking of customs… Hire a professional to do the design work. John had insights into Chip design that you wouldn’t normally think of. It’s worth the cash, spend the extra money and get it done right the first time. Take your time and order samples, trust me! If you decide to go Chipco, Get the color wheels from HPC. This is the only way to know for sure on the colors… the same goes with ASM color sample chips. Next on my list is to get some matching custom Plaques from Holdempokerchips for my $100. This current set is perfect for .25/.50 NL, .50/$1 NL & $1/$2NL but I want to be able to go higher stakes just in case. Exact specs on Chips: Clover: True Green/Lime Green .25 - Pink/Hot Pink $1 – Blue/Orange $5 – Chocolate/Mustard Gold $20- Yellow/Burnt Red … This is my USC tribute chip The light in my living room is very bright in these photos so some of them look a bit washed out… They are not though… VIBRANT colors, every one! I’m blown away by how much the green 2-tone Shamrock pops! The details are great! Enjoy!

Wow those turned out great! The simple design really makes for an eye-pleasing sight, as there are some ceramics that are too full of graphics! Yours are very easy to read and easy to take in. Congrats on the new setup, ChipCos are great quality chips
