Thanks a lot !!!

Thanks to you I directly printed the card on a resistant/hard paper and I just have to cut it out right now

My friends are gonna be happy now. They will have the Yonex logo on their racquets. (It won't change their level anyway

)

haha...well...if the logo on the strings gives them a confidence boost, maybe it does change their level of play. It's all in the head. your welcome, by the way.

Prefer stencil ink. However, for frequent / hard hitting players, a permenant marker can do the job as well. They going to break the string long before any chemical show significant effect on strings.

but is acrylic paint ok to use on the strings?

**liddokun** · 05-22-2007, 04:37 PM

i don't think it's a problem...though i could be wrong. one thing i have noticed is that acrylic paints come off pretty easily. (i mean it scrapes off pretty easily)

I have no clue personally, I just used the ink from the ink/yonex logo stencil kit that you can buy.

**BlinkNdSmashed** · 05-24-2007, 04:46 PM

oh, can you just buy it in those yonex suppliers?

Yeah, I used the red ink from the yonex stencil kit. the one from here
http://www.badmintonalley.com/YONEX_...tencil-kit.htm
although I got it from a different website at the time

As for copying, it's fine, I don't really mind haha. I'm just glad someone likes it

And I'm sure someone out there in this large world of ours has probably done something like it in the past... maybe =P

That's an awesome idea! You should post a pic

Maybe I'll try that one =P

**the_oro** · 06-06-2007, 05:43 PM

i would but that was last year and the strings were since cut, and i don't remember taking any pictures. sorry

Here are some of mine, made using Citadel model paints - water-soluble acrylic modelling paints that will not (I'm pretty sure of that!) eat into plastics

**drowsysmurf** · 06-07-2007, 04:57 PM

where did u find that stick figure... i've been trying to find a good stick figure but can't seem to find it... maybe i should just paint it on instead of bothering with a stencil =P

**gsloh** · 06-08-2007, 03:18 AM

I drew the stick figure by hand on paper, stuck it onto a piece of cardboard and cut it out with a hobby knife.

The only snag I had was I put the figure slightly off-centred on the cardboard, hence when I flipped it over to do the other side of the racket it was a bit crooked!
