Hello all,

I enjoy playing casino games with my family. Last year I got my own layouts printed for several games. However, this year I would like to get some printed out for other games I have seen online. The thing is that it cost around $120 per layout. Thus I was wondering how I can print these out myself. I realize I need a printer and they are quite expensive. However, if I can find one used for a reasonable price(under 1K) then I might be able to do these. Once again these layouts are just for my home table and for personal entertainment only.

My question is if anyone knows how the printing process is done, and thus, can help guide my printer search or give me some helpful advice.

Thank you.

The ones I have seen and used appear to be a silk screen process. I doubt you can make it pay off to just do a few for yourself. Remember that you are probably paying some kind of extra fee for trademarked carnival games.

My advice is just buy them printed.

I'd like to know how to get a custom layout done. I wouldn't mind paying $120 for a custom layout for my Cameltoe Poker game.

AZDuffman,

I understand what you are saying. But my though is if I get a printer I can then print them out myself or any other type of variations I want without having to pay the money each time.

Also, I saw a video by Midwest game supplywhere they do direct printing. Do you have a printer you can recommend which I could research and try to find used?

Nice, I like it. I bookmarked it for future shopping.

I used Jay at casino supply for mine. I found his prices very reasonable, and he did custom work for me on both felts I had him print. The shop is on the premises, and they start with a blank white cloth and print the whole thing (as opposed to starting with a particular color felt).
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.
