Custom name discs

[haggishunter]

Hey folks, wondering of anyone knows of anyone who will make a custom name disc, one in colour. Its for an old rack cue I got from my club for cheap, fancied sticking a proper badge on it so it doesn't get confused with the dozens of other rack cues in the club. Going to start using it on a Friday for pool with mates, until recently I've been happy using the cue I play snooker with but my club has turned into a bit of a zoo of late on a Friday and twice I'm come back from the loo or from smoking to find my cue gone from the table, the last time the bloke just chucked it back on my table, its now got 4 small dents on the butt and I'm now paranoid that its gonna get nicked or broken so have decided to start using something on a Friday that I'm not gonna stress about.

do you know if his badges are printed or engraved ?

[old school]

Printed , but then he puts a clear plastic film on to protect the print . As long as the film is left on the print wont wear off .

postage probably wouldn't be too bad since its only little, I'll keep you in mind though. thanks for the offer.

They are a bit cheap and nasty, i bought a couple a while ago but ended up throwing them out. He may have improved his method tho, i think an engraved type would be much more to anybody's taste

as they are only small and barely weight a gram, I don't think postage (envelope/letter) would cost that much at all

haggishunter - I would order two - just in case

I also would prefer an engraved one.

it was something on Facebook the other week that made me think of a custom name badge for this cue but his ad thing disappeared after someone and myself mentioned that making direct copies of folks badge probably wasn't the smartest move, all the custom individual ones, fine but a bit dodgy selling copies of the real ones....

thanks for the heads up, some of the makers badges hes changed the names to things like green glaze, mandy travis, james cutters and blunt and O'Leary....... going by the pictures they are printed, don't look engraved.

It was me that questioned him on FB also, sorry it bugs the crap out of me that he’s allowed to sell them on Ebay and FB
