Tina chips question (4 Viewers)

[creepychips]

Newbie question. Sorry if this is answered elsewhere...

Can you fully edge to edge print Tina chips the way you can with chips from BR Pro? All the Tina chips I see seem to be hybrids with labels, but I'm leaning towards getting fully printed chips like the Dia De Los Muertos ones from BR Pro but with custom art.

If you can do this with Tina chips what mold would you use?

Thanks for the help!

Yes. Tina also has "no mold" and "cards mold" (non hybrid ceramics).

Most prefer and would recommend hybrids.

As Steve said, plain mold or cards mold. Here are some of mine.

Cards mold tournament chips:

43mm no mold textured Bounty chip:

You've probably seen plenty of edge to edge printed ceramics from tina and just not realized it. The majority of PCFers seem to have their ceramics printed to look like traditional clay chips (instead of taking advantage of the possibilities of edge to edge printing, like Dia De Los Muertos.)

My "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" chips designed by @mattross1313 Are edge to edge printed Tina textured no molds.

Another example, printed on cards mold.

Ah, I see it now. Thanks for the info, and the pics, I definitely thought those were stick-on labels until you guys explained it.

Even if they are printed to "look like" clay chips with edge spots, they are still printed edge to edge. Point to OP is that you can literally have almost anything printed on Tina chips, whether they are hybrids or not.

Oh, wait...that goes for the other molds as well? Not just cards mold and no mold?

These are no-mold...meaning the entire face is flat, but I made a faux mold to look like it is pressed into the chip.

And well done I might add!!!!

My understanding is that there are issues with color matching between the label and chip on the hybrids, not to mention getting the labels lined up correctly, so it is technically possible, but probably not the best in practice.
