Skateboard tape

[skeeterbug25]

Aight guys got a little project goin. Tryin to replace this boring black tape seen here. Used as a step pad.



Goin to replace it with this red skeeter bug that i cut out of red skateboard tape. Im goin to have a piece of black skateboard tape with a big oval cut out of it and this bug in the middle of it to match the boat.




Let me know what you guys think. will post more pics when finished. . also does anyone know of anyonw that can cut this stuff like iguana or crazy elvis. i havent found anyone yet that can thats why im doin it myself.

There is a guy named Bud Lintz that makes the bullet step pads. He does a nice job cutting that material. I believe he does this for many different boats. I don't have his number right now, But I bet someone on the bullet board has it.

Wish I could help you ...but no luck here on cutting that type of material, it is too rigid for our cutters...I believe that type of material is normally stamp cut..

Good Luck on your project

It can be laser cut too...I think. My cousin has a laser cutter that he uses to etch metals and plastics and also cuts vinyl. I'll ask him about s/b tape. He's been wanting to get a business going doing that kinda stuff....told him to get his a$$ on BBC
