Custom Charm?
Hey everyone, I just joined, but I've got a question, and I need your help!
I've been trying to find a place that sells poker charms/trinkets. I play on occasion, but I have a friend who plays all the time and I'd like to get him a lucky charm, sort of like the little dragons and gold chips that pros have, but something custom...
I can't find anyone who makes custom charms, especially anyone who speciallizes in poker charms...does anyone have any suggestions?

Please don't take this the wrong way.
Personally, I would not look at buying some poker trinket/good luck charm.
I would try to find something with meaning. A few examples I can think of are a small inuit soapstone carving, a piece of gum chewed by Johnny Chan, something that you own but give to your friend with good wishes, a smalll meteorite, a vial of sand from a famous beach he visited, etc. Talk to his parents to see if they have a memento from his childhood. Get him a locket with a picture of his daughter/son/wife/parents/dog......
Do you get my drift? My feeling is that this sort of thing will have more of a good luck effect.

Get them a decent card protector, something personal that they will enjoy... That's about the best charm you can have, something thats good luck and functional.
Meanwhile, I'm still looking for a suitably sized bobble head slider....

I guess I wasn't clear....I know the exact thing to get him that is personal...I just didn't specify that cause then you might steal it, and I want it to be one of a kind...I just need to find a company to make it...I've seen places that will put initials on a card protector, and that's pretty cool, but it wouldn't be personal to him....
for ease of explaining....lets just say that he totally liked the dollar symbol. I'd want to find someone who could make one that's red, and about three inches tall, but it could stand alone....who could I get to do that? Or has anyone seen places that sell stuff like that????
