That's exactly what I am thinking, the top left on one side of the chip and the top middle on the other side. Ever since @allforcharity planted that seed in my head, all my chips have to be two different sides.

Yeah, sure, blame me. Seriously though, if you're going to go to all the trouble with a custom set that will become an heirloom, and therefore resale value is not an issue, then why wouldn't you maximize your creativity by using different art on both sides of the chip? Easy to do for inlays, easy to do for ceramics. Win-win-win.

If it works. Do it.

@Kensco and @Tham6165 who did your labels/art?

 

[Kensco]

Looks good!!! Did you go with anything higher?

Higher than a fiver ?? !

With my a crowd, anything over a $5 chip would never see play. Ever.

At least you have a crowd to use them with.

@Kensco and @Tham6165 who did your labels/art?

@sir bluffs alot
I came up with the name and layout and sent it to Gene @ABC Gifts and Awards and he sent several versions of my l layout and made several small tweaks along the way. I'm sure if you would like to use them he wouldn't have a problem doing them for you also.

 

[RussB42]

Thanks, Laminated sounds good.

 

[Tham6165]

Must mean......

1600 labels later! ALL DONE! Yes I aligned all the labels to the edge spots on every chip minus the first couple I posted. I was too excited to getting them on to see them without concern for alignment.

I think this is it. @p5woody changed the animals for me (I thought that the rockfish had to be on the grey chip) and updated the lines to the background color of the chip. Now all the colors of each chip are on that chips label.

If you are on the fence about getting help with designing labels, go with @p5woody, the guys knows what he is doing!

A different color for the 500, 1000, & 5000 would really work since the side colors on the 25 and 100 match the denominations. Just a thought.

A different color for the 500, 1000, & 5000 would really work since the side colors on the 15 and 100 match the denominations. Just a thought.

I didn't notice that until you just said that. My only hesitation is that changing the denom color on the 500, 1000 & 5000 might look out of place since the 25 and 100 have the same color.

 

[FDLmold]

Farting around. Going to make something like this, but not all. Nobody needs 8 colors/denoms. Except maybe the WSOP ME.

I don't like the Flamingo inlay much, but I'm surprised how well that chip turned out. It's now one of my faves.

 

[FDLmold]

In case you can't tell, those are 1960s "tribute" inlays from the Las Vegas Strip only. I could make another set from downtown, and a third from the rest of Nevada. Maybe I will maybe I won't.

I think they would work on the chip. Especially since so much of the chip is tied together.

Finally got the labels on and oiled the rolling edges...

THAT IS A CLEAN LABEL.

The black labels pop so nice on these chips with every color.

My group has never had more than $200 on the table. Still, I got two barrels of 20s, and a barrel of hundreds. You know, just in case I get better friends.
