    Hi. Does anyone know where I can go to get a logo printed on the strings? (I live in the bay area of California if that helps)
    Thanks.

    You can go to Synergy. They put logo prints like Yonex and perhaps BK on rackets. Many badminton dedicated stores do that. Im sure racketsupply in Milpitas also provides logos on it. You can easily buy one online for around 7 dollars as well and do it yourself too

    Look to buy it online (yonex stencil kit). You can easily do it with spray paint and a cut out yonex sign. Just place it over the head and spray away usually around 7 dollars.
    At stores, it should be free or if not, you can get it free with stringing. I know synergy has a yonex one but racketsupply might have victor since they sell a lot of victor rackets and like no yonex rackets

    Print out logo, stick on some plastic, cut logo out of plastic with knife, use as stencil with string ink you can buy from anywhere.

    Don't be tempted to use a texta or sharpie.

    They don't ship outside of the EU. If you want anything Victor, Eric at the ebay store squash_mart is not a bad first port-of-call.

    I got the ink from stringersworld.co.uk and the stencil I literally downloaded from the web, traced it FROM OFF MY SCREEN with tracing paper, and got a piece of plastic from an old folder, laid the two on top and cut the logo out.

    Doing it in plastic is great because you can use it hundreds of times, but card works just as well.

    If you have a look using google images, you can see where roughly to put the stencil and how big it should be.

    Give it a go, it's actually fun :)

    If there's a Victor dealer near where you live, they should be able to do it for you. Otherwise, (thanks to Yoppy) you can size and print the logo here, transfer it to a heavy paper or light cardboard, cut it and use stencil ink to stencil the logo. Don't use paint, they make ink just for this purpose, some dealer in the Bay Area should have it: http://www.prosportuk.com/badminton...inton_accessories/5026/yonex_stencil_ink.html
