Glass chits made from tile
I found some 12 x 12 tiles at a job site the other day that were made up of individual 1" square clear glass tiles with a white layer of paint on back. I also had a dry erase marker. The logical thing to do was turn them into chits for... whatever I want! Here is a picture from my fledgling blog. It should be fairly easy to find a similar sheet of tile if you want your own. Cheers!

Re: Glass chits made from tile
Those certainly work. Do you find the marker smudges easily with handling?

The dry erase does smudge easily. Wet erase would probably be a better marker for the task. They are also quite easy to pick up on the edges.

Re: Glass chits made from tile
Since they are glass, you might be able to use a Sharpie and then clean them with nail polish remover.

Those do look nifty. You could also draw things on the back and then apply paint over the drawing to make them 'permanent'. Do you know where they were purchased?

I bet a "grease" pencil would work great on them and not smudge easily, while still being able to be rubbed off cleanly.

Re: Glass chits made from tile
Nice find.
1x1" glass mosaic tiles are a pretty common item for building decor, and can be pretty cheap (pennies per tile, usually in 12x12 sheets, so 144 tiles for a few dollars). You can get them in all sorts of colors or patterns, too. Match the theme or setting for your game, color-code the good guys and bad guys, and so on. |
