Title: Make your own pads...how?
Post by: sam hudson on January 19, 2006, 07:57 PM: Ok,i can see its quite easy to photoshop out a set of decals and designs for printers to stick onto tee-shirts(the same principle must apply to pads decals).
I think my local tee-shirt place will be able to print my design onto my pads,but where do we get the fabric from(i assume its a Nylon jobby).
I know some of you guys make your own and i'm not gonna pay 2million squid for a red set of DB pads and a set of SE pads.

I want some pads and these things are getting so rare and expensive we are all gonna have to make our own.
So,who's got the scans and where do we get the fabric(and what is it?).
As long as we arnt infringing rights(and they havent made Team burner,Se old school and DB red letter pads for YEARS so they cant moan surely??).
I need all of those pad sets so i'm gonna do it myself with help from you guys hopefully,then we can ALL share and make our own...how hard can it be??? :angrysoapbox:

So waddaya think??? :daumenhoch:
