I guess I have signed up for the full chipping experience. Ill definitely be earning quite a few chipping bagdes on this project.
Riding on the coat tails of chipping titans. Smart.
Work smarter, not harder.
Okay, who ordered this thing?
I think what people forget is that the "yellow" is part of the chip that has discoloured. Some is lose dust and some is right in the chip.
I agree, the actual chip material is changing. An analogy is rust...you don’t remove it by cleaning, it needs to be physically removed because it IS the material, not something ON it.
chip rust. its NOW a thing. from this day forth the yellow stuff will be referred to as chip rust.
thanks for sharing. time estimate? also are you planning on keeping them as snappers or relabelling? from the pics the inlay looks like it has "chip rusted" also.
Relabel or overlabel not sure yet. Maybe took 30 min a barrel. Planning on doing them again especially on the edges but faces are pretty good
Thats actually not too bad. I thought it would take longer.
Ok thats still in the realm of acceptability. From what @grantc54 has been sharing I personally think murder and relabel is the way. Especially since there is a high chance there is chip rust under the inlay which ideally should be removed also.
The edges are what really eats up the magic eraser.
To do the edges, would it be less wear-and-tear on the eraser if you scrubbed a small stack instead of each chip alone?
I did not flatten these. These were selected from amongst the flatter ones. I would guess maybe 20% seemed warped enough to need to flatten.
To hazard a guess they would be how they came or that @Chipandchair is really bad at flattening chips.
