You get a feel for the curvature of the inlay and a two finger press technique that makes it faster and more accurate.
Out of 1600 labels only 6 were a loss from a bad placement.
Without a doubt a labor of love.

Keep in mind that factory labels are applied by hand at a rate of hundreds per hour. While it may be "fun" to perfectly align labels to edge spots, even the beloved Paulson chip isn't edge aligned, and CPC just gets close (+/- 20°).
If you are trying for perfection on a China-quality chip, you are working too hard.

Agreed but I only need to do 50 chips. I bought a tourney set and I was fine with the 1K, 5K, 25K, 100K colors....but if I needed to do a whole 1,000 chip set there would def be less care taken.

Even so, middle stack $25 is tilt-worthy off if you are targeting "perfection".
oh don't worry we got the line worker fired... won't happen again.
You're scaring me; I have about 250 to label and I've never done it before. I figured I could do 50 a night at about 1 minute per chip. Should be done in a week. Then oiling all 750. I'm anticipating being able to play with them sometime in the mid 2050's.
I’ve just labelled my first lot of chips, never done it before either but wasn’t to bad.. I placed a label on a Stanley knife and positioned inside the recess as best as I could.

It's super easy. I did a couple racks a night while watching TV

Once I got a rhythm down it went pretty smooth.
Oooh Stanley knife is a good idea. I'll have to try that when I start labeling.
Labor of love. I had no idea it would take so much time.
Watching tv on the side definitely helps.

Thanks for the heads-up, I bought one today
Plenty of room for my 4 color bridge sized Desjgn set when it comes in September.
I finished labeling about 300 chips... I don't know what I was so worried about. It was actually fun. Much more so than washing/oiling. In fact, I'm offering to label everyone's chips for them! I averaged about 40 seconds per chip (aligned).
Depending on how many people send me their Royals, you'll get then back between next week and whenever I'm done using them

A huge difference across the board after oiling. Particularly noticeable with 5k.
Edit:: Maybe paranoid, but immediately after I transferred to white paper towels. Had visions of white chips being somehow stained blue from the oil/towel.

@BmoreTerp what method did you use to oil them? Compression?

@BearMetal Yes, compression method. I was impressed with the thread about it. But I don’t have any firsthand experience with another method to compare it to.

Overdue for this thread. Set of 600. Currently blanks...waiting on custom labels.

Is this the 3800? 4 rows of chips two racks deep for an easily held 800 chips?

Does anyone know which company manufactured these chips?
I’d email @Apache though I’m guessing he doesn’t want to yell it from the roof top
