Faux Clays from way back (1 Viewer)

[mattez]

Cleaned out the closet the other day. I haven't hosted, played or thought about poker in several years until I ran across these gems...Anyone remember faux clays from mid 2000's? Anyone remember wasting entire weekends cooking up white faux in a dye solution to get those awesome colors? Then buying custom stamps for the denominations. I believe these were cooked around 2007. Anyone else still got cooked fauxs?

I still have racks of white, red, and black. Might even have some green. Still have barrels wrapped in the original plastic... Use em for a travel set when needed.

I ended up selling all but a couple lasered samples and early dyed prototypes. I still have the powered rotisserie I made to dye my chips.
Your set looks great, how did you do the stamps?

I had around 2000 of these back in the day. I eventually sold them to someone back on that other chip site. I really liked these chips. They were hugely popular for what they were and they were super cheap. I miss them.
