different metals

[crazychicken]

i am making poker chips in my metal shop, and i have a problem
standarch chips are 11.5 to 13.5 grams.

the chips i'm designing will be

6 grams is aluminum
21.6 grams if brass
19.7 grams if steel

does anyone know a metal that is heavier than aluminum and lighter than steel? if so, where can i get a 2'x2' sheet of it?

thanks
david

why are you worried about the weight...?

 

[Klandestine]

melt them down and make an alloy, talk about fun!

 

[shenaniganz]

Use Plutonium.

i find it rediculous that i got 2 rediculous answers in less than 5 minutes.

i'm worried about the weight cause i want them to be as close as possible to standard playing chips.

does anyone have an actual answer?

Klandestine has a decent idea, brass and alum together would be about 13 grams.

FYI:


Ridiculous does not have the letter "E" in it.

 

[djheater]

Tin?

BTW.

This is Off Topic, you should expect ridiculous answers. Part of the intention of the forum is for people to let off steam.

If you want ONLY serious answers find a metal-worker forum somewhere and stop whining.

you guys are idiots
because i spelled a word wrong makes me a total retard right?

Titanium

Correct.

 

[Baked]

Use lead and wear gloves when you play poker.

 

[Demon-Xanth]

Looks like you choices are:
Titanium
Vandium
Multiple layers.

You work in a metal shop and you expect people on a geek forum to know more about metals than you?

No it doesn't. But you ARE being a baby. We're ribbing you, take it like a man.

Chances are his metal shop doesn't have the equipment to clad metals.

 

[Rallispec]

can your equipment handle titanium? if so , that'd be freakin awesome. Probably not very cheap though.

 

[SWScorch]

Dammit! I clicked on this link, all ready to expound on the subtleties between black and death metal, and how melodic death metal differs from thrash, or symphonic black metal. Why, I was frothing at the mouth, ready to discredit any nu-metal bands and applauding the old-school greats like Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and Slayer. Bah!
