Anyone do decals and patches?

Bopeye · April 10, 2007, 08:18:11 PM

I was just curious if anyone did decals and patches? Nothing with a name on it, just like a graphic or something?

It just seems to me that a guy could make a fairly decent little business of making decals, patches, maybe some magnetic signs for predator hunters. I have no desire to do this, but thought I would throw it out there for someone that is feeling inspired......

I would like to have a cool decal of a coyote on the back of my 4-runner with maybe an inscription of some sort, but I'm not that interested in getting one that promotes something or someone else.
Just looking for something that says, "The fat boy in this truck hunts coyotes" or something like that.......

That way when the farmer or whoever drives up and sees my truck setting there........they know it's the fat boy in the camo parachute toting that 95 lb. street howitzer....

Just a thought boys. Maybe there is someone that already does it, I don't know.
I am going to go to a place called "Vital Signs" in Cookeville, Tn. on Saturday to see what they might be able to do for me.

There's quite a few of them around. You might ask about custom work since that's what it sounds like your leaning towards.

It'll probably cost a small fortune, in set up fees, and not be justifiable for one decal, but they might be able to take an image you provide and run it through.

Lynn bought a decal machine. Can print anything up to 24" wide. He was working on some FnF decals for me. First batch wasn't nothing to brag about because my logo is a simple gif file....and has wayyyy too many gradients in it. I need to refine a decal version and then he'll probably be doing those for me.

He did make some AWESOME decals for a new website he is working on, with an Elk on them and they turned out unbelievable....course he's got all the software to create the vector image file with, that the print software requires.

Well thanks Kee........I wasn't trying to get one of y'alls, but I'll proudly stick it on there.

I'd gladly put an FnF, Kee, CCP or whatever decal on my truck. I just want to put something else on there that says, "Bopeye" .............maybe a fat coyote gorging himself........ :roflmao:
I don't know what I'm looking for, I'm just checking it out right now. I'll know when I see it.

Jim I want a decal for my truck that says "Harcd Core FNF'r"

Better yet can ya get me one of those lil' peeing fellas thats peeing on the letters "PM" Nothing serious just the initials of a good friend of mine.

studabaka · April 11, 2007, 06:58:03 PM

Hey, I got one of them PM decals in my call cabnet :shck: [ex's china cabnet

] I ordered it before and it arrived after I realized the worm had turned.

I could part with it, but

given current course & speed, it might be collectible :roflmao: NOT!!

Probably make a great target for sighting in a gun

Todd Rahm · April 11, 2007, 07:03:45 PM

Hey Stu I can put it on ebay with my highly collectable "Custom Call Makers and Collectors Guild" Hat, pin, and knife made in china with the logo etched on it. With the way they were charrished and touted ...........heck they must be worth sumtin.

I bet we could fetch some high $$$$ for those extremely rare collcetables.

studabaka · April 11, 2007, 07:06:15 PM

Clearly a match made in .........

FinsnFur · April 11, 2007, 07:06:22 PM

Grrreat idea

DirtyDog · April 11, 2007, 07:13:42 PM

How about this.......

Roundman · April 11, 2007, 07:28:20 PM

I looked into about the same thing. I found this place www.decaljunky.com
To make a custom will cost a bill or two. Not worth it to me. It seems most places have good graphics for deer but the coyotes suck. If ya find a good place let us know.

Todd Rahm · April 11, 2007, 07:50:12 PM

Lol..................where ya running to Jim. :roflmao:

Amen to that Roundman. That was a good decal place, but absolutely nothing for predator/coyote hunters......

I'm looking for something along those lines, but just not sure yet. I'm kinda dense in the noggin, but I'll know when it drills me.
