I completely missed the boat on 25’s but I think these milled blazes will do the trick. Just need to get to the top of gears list.
Seems like another spotted option may be better. Could do a purple or black $20. I dont see a world where a solid chip works BUT if you like it then its perfect.

yea i agree. my supply of slightly worn THC is non existent so these will do the trick for now. but spotted would be better. matter o'fact some real 25s would be better lol.

+1 I keep waiting for someone to make a $20 for these these sets.

Have been thinking about that too. Can’t see many options that would match the condition of the leaded/old school runs

Vintage room room $1 or Lucky Derby $5 for a chocolate $20 - could probably be shape-milled too as most of the stamps are gone

Aztar $100 is an option otherwise…but no idea if they have a recess for an overlabel

Can’t think of a single purple chips to use here though…

Vintage $1 would be sick. Could also do Lucky Derby charcoal $20s

@Barberp I second this. As lovely as those blaze chips are, ya gotta have a spotted chip in that place. The PCF spot progression police CAN NOT allow you to use a solid there... :D
 
This was the first Chip Room sale since I'e been a member here, so I was excited to participate!

Some good news and some bad news:

- missed out on some of the chips I was most excited about (bad), thankfully we have an awesome classifieds section where some may pop up in the future (good!)
- these chips were impressively dirty! (bad) a great excuse for me to learn to get real good at cleaning chips (good!)
- after failing miserably hand cleaning a rack (bad), I had an excuse to join the ultrasonic club (good!)
- I panicked when everything started selling out so fast and spent way more than I was expecting (both good and bad??)

I had limited time when I was briefly home between traveling for projects so I hope to spend some more time trying to make these beautiful when I get home again in another couple weeks. Here are a couple before + afters so far but mine don't look nearly as good as some of the others who have shared photos in this thread!
