Some Stacking Action (New Pix added)

aferr1973 · #11 (**permalink**) 04-09-2007, 09:20 AM

I realized after I posted that those were on the original paulson mold which aren't warped. Does anyone know if the Pharaohs on HPC that are denom are on the old Paulson mold or the new suited mold? The photo shows the denom Pharaohs on the Paulson mold. So is it the case that only the suited Pharaohs are known to have the warping issues or is it any Paulsons that were made in the last two years regardless of the mold? I'm really torn here because I want the Pharaohs but having warped chips that are gonna run me close to $600 reallllllly bugs me...

Well done SOG...any reason to look at Pharaohs makes for a great thread.

i hear ya! there are no problems with the old mold, which are still being sold by MSPatton at HPC..... again, my intelligence is limited, but i believe paulson packed up manufactoring in the US and moved it to Mexico & thats when the warping started to bedevil paulson pharaohs.

i've never had such public approval for my erections - LOL

i should have taken a pic of the XXL durex coupon i got tonight.... i'm that large - LMAO!!!

i am going to steal my own thunder and maybe inspire someone else who has more time to stack chips....

i believe that you could do a dual spiral (double helix DNA spiral)... with that interleaving method... and make a DNA strand...

i may take a swipe at it... i suspect frustration and time... the key is spacing... and lining up chips.

Alright tried a DNA thing... and I couldnt get it to work... Here is plan B

spiral that bridges the gap.

Hmmmm.... what next?

I've never seen a bridge before, I'm sure you make it look easier than it appears in the pictures.

I was indoors playing with my son today and I combined it with some chipmadness. (Inspired by some shady dude on CT) Most of my attempts where slaughtered long before finished but this one survived and is kind of odd locking.
Like your new pics btw, you have patiance for sure

A simple tribute to chips creations.
