Speaking of, where did you get those? I was thinking of adding some bundles to the cash game just for HSP kicks. Was thinking of buying some Zimbabwe currency, you can get like 8kg of notes for $100 but kinda hard to get these days.
I just took a stack of old newspapers and cut them to the size of paper currency (I used my paper cutter at my print shop). Then I made color copies of some bills and put them on each side of the stack, and rubber-banded them together. You can put a currency band around them to identify the value of the "brick" of cash. You can get currency bands at any office supply place or maybe even your local bank...or just make your own.
I also thought about making some of these using confederate bills or Canadian currency.
Oh nice one. I thought it was funny money or something.
I actually found an ebay store selling 10.000 notes of some Chinese expired money but it was like $250 so I figured I'd rather get a set instead of wasting money on a thing I wouldn't be able to offload.
First off, I really dig the table. Never cared much for rectangular but this one is an exception for sure.
But for some constructive criticism, your bundles of cash look great. I used to work in a casino and I regularly handled bundles of cash. So the criticism is this: the imaginary bundle of 5's you have look more like a full stash of 100, making the value $500, which is normal. Having the $100 strap looks out of place, i mean 20 bills just don't get that thick, especially bcuz bundles tend to be on the tight side. I would recommend you swap out the copies of the $5 bills with a good ole authentic $1 bills making the bundle look more realistic.
