Location: central illinois | So I made my own bump board. I made it right handed. I didn't realize it would be this hard to find a adhesive sticker that reads right to left. I did some searching and found adhesive measuring tape that reads right to left but I can only find it in widths of 1/2 to 3/4 inches. I would like it to fill out my bumpboard which is 7 1/4 inches wide. Any help would be appreciated! |

| I looked awhile back also and came up empty handed. I ended up calling a local sign company and they can do it on a vinyl any size and width you want. I would imagine any local sign company would do it. Price wasn't bad at all for the sticker when you look at what they get for a manufactured bump board. Print off a couple extras and sell them to your buddies and get some of your money back..lol |

Location: South East Wisconsin | Evan, what material did you use to make your board? If you got a buddy who works in a shop maybe he/she can laser the numbers in? I just got a custom board which was done this way, looks outstanding! |

Location: central illinois | I used cellular vinyl PVC. Laser sounds cool, but I don't know if that would work on my board. Thank you for the reply! |

Location: Grand Rapids, MI | I had made a batch of boards last year, and I actually still have to fill an order this year. I had my buddy make my graphic out of vinyl. They are laminated, and VERY tough. You can't tear it by hand. The laminated part helps so it will NEVER fade in the sunlight. I think they run around $30 + shipping. Maybe a few bucks less. If you're interested, let me know, and I can get a definate price for you.

Only problem is, a lot of them only come in 1/2" - 1 1/2" wide. Kind of hard to measure a fish that has a 10" wide tail. |
