Interesting.

You decide which category that falls into. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Well I had my choice between a Sharpie, the Rub-Ons, and my new untested Pyrography Kit [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

That looks really cool, Newc. I've given you some crap over the Halford Warrior(justified [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]), but this and the JCF-01 are awesome. [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

And you know those Kanji symbols read "I'm an idiot that f*cks sheep", right?? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

That is very cool. It all ties in well, and I really like the Kanji symbols. Rub on decals, eh? Where'd you get something like that? I can think of lots of uses for something like that. Anyone with prior experience know about their durability?

Damn Newc! I really like it! You had me worried after the Halford Warrior and the Ojeda abortion, but I think you're back on track! Looks great.

Re: The USA Phil Crosby Kanji Dinky

Swap out the gold tuners and retaining bar for black and it would be perfect! Different, but I like it, too.

Re: The USA Phil Crosby Kanji Dinky

Thanks gang. As for the durability of the decals, the first time I printed them off, they came out backwards (thanks to the directions not stating that you had to print the image in mirror), and I had already applied 3 of them before I noticed it, so I had to remove them. It takes a little elbow grease to get them off, but they do come off without having to break out the abrasives. With strings on it, I doubt they'd wear off too easily.
Of course, if you oiled the board or had sweaty hands I can't say how long the decals would last.
You can get the rub on decal paper from www.beldecal.com along with waterslide decal sheets.
And the characters mean:
1 - Loyalty
3 - Honor
5 - Strength
7 - Wisdom
9 - Skill
12 - Hope
15 - Luck
17 - Love
19 - Charity
21 - Mercy
24 - Harmony
