Just wanted to say these look great! That's got to be one of the nicest GB tourney sets ever!

As a side note the yellow 1000 broke almost in half during shipping which I have found odd since jsmithjr in his thread about hotstamping some makes comments about dropping one 3 times and it survived! Who knows maybe some odd blenish in this one! http://www.chiptalk.net/forum/custom...hotstamps.html |
Keep in mind that solids made from "day-glo" colours are bound to be lighter and less durable (more fragile) since they don't contain brass flakes. In the old days, you could only use "day-glo" colours for edge spots for these reasons... but if you're determined, now you can get "day-glo" base colours but will be warned that they'll be on the light side.
I imagine that you'll find all the brass flake chips (chocolate, purple, mand-red, imp-blue, white, grey) will weigh in around 8.5 g.
