Traveled down that YouTube rabbit hole and found this. Not gonna lie, the "sound" of the laser is quite satisfying.

That’s lots of heat by the end

Can’t imagine how warped that ended up

Peel off the plastic covering first

IKR, this is getting extreme.

IKR, this is getting extreme.

It’s literally going to bake the inlay and plastic into the clay. Not gonna be pretty

Just because you can doesn't mean you  should.

Wonder how he plans to correct the now-charred edges of the recess. Automated digital orbital sander?

That's all I could think the whole time with the brighter start and finish points... the edge of that recess is going to be garbage. I give credit for the attempt but I can't see how the chip comes out flat or the recess areas being sharp.

Not gonna lie -
First thing that came to me listening to that video was @MatB at the poker table.

I want one, will go right next to the hot dog roller this site made me buy

At Tommy, can we get a ruling on snuff videos?

I like how everyone here is okay with a metal drill bit rotating at thousands of RPMs, shaving off layers of chip material. Or me, in my underwear, in a dark murder room using a blade to slice bits of the chip's body away. But when there's a laser involved and a little bit of scorching we all get horrified.

Chips have feelings too, and we're all monsters.

It seems to work well on these chips. Are these ceramics?

 

[BEANO52]

As the op says, I went down a rabbit hole and have no clue who this is. They have just a few "poker" related videos including milling from 11 years ago and table construction from 12 years ago (pokerchipfactory.fr) Mostly video game stuff otherwise.

There have been a few people in the past that did laser etching on chips that posted here. I believe there are current members that may have some faux clay sets that were etched this way maybe @Jeff not sure.

Yeah, he did laser etching on mostly basic plastic chips, which looked great imo. He never was able to get satisfactory results on clay or China clay chips.

 

[TheBigTater]

These are the faux clay ones I was thinking of (Jeff's). https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/the-second-official-faux-clay-nation-thread.7684/post-837441

Don't remember the guys name that was doing them, I believe there was more than one.

Jason at Lazerchips is the only one I remember. @Jeff ?

 

[Jeff]

As far as I know, Jason was it. Jason's doesn't do this any more last time we spoke a couple years ago. Some personal setbacks, and lack of access to equipment.
