Gonna steal this. Patron saint of lost causes. Can't hurt.I've gotten many, many address labels from St. Judes Hospital over the years. Since I rarely send anything through the post office anymore, I use the labels to mark my chalk.
Or get one of these. Use it inside a wastebasket.... scrape it against a cement wall or the sidewalk. ...
Of course, nothing unique about any one piece of chalk.I read all the posts and I still say toss it.

At less than $0.25 a cube for Masters it's not worth a room owner's time to worry about it either.My local spot has all the Master i can use. I've never thought about this. Hope i never do.
Only time i've heard something like that is when you chalk a really hard, slick tip.OK chalk experts answer this on Saturday there were 3 nice cubes of Masters chalk on the table.
One of them made high pitched noise when used why?
I tossed it in the trash it was annoying like I was killing Mickey mouse.

You messed up on this one, the high pitch could make a nice sharking tactic. Your opponent surely can't complain about you chalking can they? I'm only kidding, but I've heard these squeakers too, I wonder if it's drier or something. They generally quiet down after being out in the room for a few days.OK chalk experts answer this on Saturday there were 3 nice cubes of Masters chalk on the table.

My opponent was an old guy like me and probably did not hear the squeaky chalk.You messed up on this one, the high pitch could make a nice sharking tactic.

I’ve seen worse drill jobs than that. Like a few others mentioned, if you learn how to properly chalk you’ll waste a lot lessIs there anything that can be done with the chalk after being used to this point (see pic). Seems like there is at least 1/3 of the block left and seems wasted.

You can also take it outside and rub it on the concrete a few times.At The Palace in San Francisco (and probably across the street at Cochran's) the procedure was to file the face of deep-hole chalk on a rough file. I think the counter man did this in his spare time.
But chalk only gets like that if it is used by people who chalk wrong, which is to say most of the people in the pool hall.
