Title: Customized stumps
Post by: SteffanLangholz on January 28, 2017, 10:16:44 PM
Hi lads

Our league is color kit only. And trending is colored stumps.

Anyone know of suppliers and prices? Currently found a set for 114 pounds, but that stings.

We have 2 sets, we paid £60, did a deal with our (then current) kit supplier who knew the guy very well. Although it is just a vinyl sticker, if you know anyone that can print them and design something yourself that will be alot cheaper!

if it's similar to those of bat stickers, i'd assume it would be ok?

Bat stickers have 2 pcs vinyl right? 1 printed, 1 layer to protect?

Yeh just overlay a protective clear layer to avoid it smudging the base layer so easily.

If anyone is able to do similar cheaply, that would be fantastic! Ours will need updating soon!

Also @SteffanLangholz Applying them is as easy as rolling pastry!

We used pimpmystumps.

B3 had a promotion whereby if you added their logo to the stumps they'd pay towards them.

Any sign shop in your local town should be able to produce a printed and laminated sticker for a reasonable cost.

We have a graphics and printing firm owner and entire family play for us, they made ours for free.

I'm sure if you know anyone that does stickers, posters or banners should be Able  to make them easily and for a lot cheaper than pimp my stumps

Your Local Signs Company can do them, ours charged us £25 per meter.  But as stated above the must be laminated with a clear sheet so the do not smudge when a ball hits them
