I hope I don't regret that 3mm now. :(

Oh well, it is what it is. Gotta start somewhere.

I suspect I am going to end up owning all three sizes.

I'm pretty sure size matters in this case... :-"

I like the 3mm on the 5/8" counters.  Wouldn't use it on 1/2" ones though.

Clip your freaking corners!

Is that kosher?  ;D


Clip 'em early.  Right after they get punched out.

My 3mm OL rounder arrived today. I immediately got Enemy Coast Ahead out and tried it on the larger counters. It worked so well I hesitantly tried a smaller one, and I didn't think it was that bad at all!





Finally got done just now. I'm very happy with how the counters look now. My hand is a bit sore from the clipping but everything looks great.

You do realise that Vance will likely need counselling after seeing that.

If you do that to D-Day you can keep it.  :buck2:

No, this game is the only one I've done thusly thus far thust.

That's not too bad for the 3mm.  They're heavily rounded, but I don't see text or numbers being cut into so it's all good.  ^-^

mirth

That's a pretty deep cut for counters that size, but they still look better than untrimmed.
