Behind the scenes look at Hot Stamping

[SuckoutKing]

Here is a peak into the making of the Super Hero Cardroom Hot Stamped Chips. Chips are BCC Solids (Some of the finest that have ever come out of Nevada) Stamped like a dream with a very very low error rate due to the chips being so perfectly flat.

Wow, very nice work. They look awesome. On another note, one Marvel superhero vs. four DC superheroes hardly seems fair.

Nice video Bob. I'll agree that the Desert Palms house mold BCC's are the nicest feeling BCC mold I've ever had, and I've had flame, sun, MGK, T, suits, and DP molds. The only BCC mold I think I haven't had the pleasure of handling is the web mold that Michael Patton did the Riverboats and a couple of other exclusive sets with.

Nice choice for a theme also.

Very very cool. I want a spider man chip so bad. You selling samples by any chance?

What do you do with the chips that don't get a full stamp. Looks like some of the Spiderman chips around the 1:03 mark are missing some "Superhero"?

Thanks for the pr0n, and especially for the video. I've never seen hotstamper at work before. Very nice. Oh, and I dig Flash Gordon.

I think there were a few listed in the classifieds. Any miss stamps get put into the die adjustment chip bin. What you don't see is the many test stamps to line up the dies just right.

Its pretty challenging to learn all the setting on this machine. It looks really fancy and you would think its just as easy as hitting the button or twisting a knob. But it takes a lot of tweeking to get everything right. If there is any inconsistency in the chips aren't perfectly flat. More than likely they will end up being mis-stamped or cracked. Was fortunate BCC had a run of making some very nice chips for a few months a few years back!
