Ignore the inlay on this... I was just working on some new mold ideas and need some opinions...
What do you guys think of this one?

| | | It works. Nothing too razzle-dazzle about it but the simplicity of it is nice.
Whats it for? got another G.B in the works?

| | | I think it looks very cool. I might worry about losing so much surface area to help chip-to-chip adhesion though. Plus, chip weight would suffer. |

| | | Nice design. I like the simpleness. But like ten said its a lot of surface area. Are you going to be able to fit something legible on the inlay? |

Anyway, it’s the size of NJ, ASM, etc...
The chip to chip adhesion could be an issue... Good call Ten. One thing I was going for was a grippe feel but it might be too much and sacrifice stack ability.

| | | I think it looks respectable, but honestly, if you're seriously thinking of having a new mold made for a custom chip application, why not do something more stylish? |

If a mold is specific and doesn’t have a certain timeless quality, I probably won’t give it a second look... This mold here would be able to handle virtually any theme and would work just was well now as 50 years ago, so I like it.
Honestly, I'm not looking to have this made anyway. The only mold I'm really interesting in right now is the mold I designed for the Samurai chips. The one in this thread is just an idea I had and is basically a "concept" chip; the mold, and inlays (there is a reverse inlay) all come together to represent the theory behind "CircleInCircle"..
