The customisation thread

[Geordie-Lee]

Really good idea that Shane, they look great. Think i've got my next little project sorted now

[Lobsta]

That's a pretty cool idea. Look awesome.

Probably a crap load cheaper than getting an equivalent head cover as a head cover.

[benno_r]

That's freakin awesome Shane!! On to ebay I go!

[Shane788]

Thanks guys yeah well like I said they both cost me $5 posted and I see novelty head covers going for $40 plus each. So there cheap plus you can just find what ever plush toy that catches your eye and make it work, if you can use a needle and thread and have a couple spare hours then its worth it for a bit of fun. Just make sure you check the size of the toy you get I got 6" and they fit good for 3 and 5 wood I'd go 8"-9" for driver.

[Puji]

That's brilliant!!!!!

Thanks benno! Yeah I spend ages looking for them, Japan eBay is good as they have the most random plush toys I've ever seen if you want something crazy.

Just went down stairs and took a pic tell me what you think, I'm still thinking about what to get for the driver. The original reason I got the bombs was because I was going to make one for a 13* 3 deep so I thought the bomb was relevant but haven't got the 3 deep yet so this will do, never been a fan of novelty head covers but ill give them a try, at least they only cost $5.

F U Shane....Like I really need to add more things to my to do list

[Captain Nemo]

What are they, M&M's?

[Dotty]

What are they, M&M's?

Why are those M&Ms wearing fez? And why do the fez have fuses in them?

[Shane788]

Haha my old man said the exact same thing at golf on Saturday, there the bombs out of super mario bros.

Tried the plasti-dip on one of my Vokeys and I have to say it's a piece of piss and I reckon it came out alright. Definitely better with the clear coat on it. Let me know what you think? Thanks to Shane788 for the idea.

Throw the scotty cameron logo on them and start raking in the dollars.

That looks heaps good. Cheaper then custom KBS that's for sure.

Got another project in mind. Will see how I go with it.

I'm glad you did end up going white I do think that it will wear the best out of all the colours, I wish I had the chance to get white, hopefully they will get it with new stock. How many coats you end up doing of white and clear BUSHY?

[BUSHY]

3 coats of white and 2 clear. The auto barn here doesn't have black but they have almost every other colour imaginable. Experimentation begin...

[Shane788]

Oh ok cool, yeah I'm going to do a driver head next and see how that turns out, my biggest worry is I think the headcover will end up peeling the edges up but see what happens

[BUSHY]

For those thinking of using the plasti dip.... Dont if you want (expect) it to last for a while.. Only took 9 holes and some chipping practice for the finish to tear and start peeling away in a few spots. That roughly equates to 4-5 times in and out of the bag before I noticed the split. Best thing is though that it does peel right off.

[Shane788]

Wow that didn't take long? Mine is still fine and its been 3 or so weeks and about 6 full rounds plus the range. Some light scuffs but no tears. I put about 5 coats of clear on though.

[BUSHY]

That might be the key. 5 coats?? What was surprising was how easily it peeled once I got a big enough split in it. Next task then...>5 coats. Question Shane... when you put that amont of clear on it does it end up 'feeling' smooth to the touch? Cheers mate.

[Shane788]

Yeah it's does mate, that's the only reason I put so many coats of clear on because I thought it would help being smooth so it wouldn't tear.

[BUSHY]

Definitely the key then.

Taking a crack at an Aussie theme...
(Which has led to me thinking for a theme if I don't sell my other select... )

[Shane788]

That's going to look mint!

[timah!]

I hope so. I stared at the raw head for a while deciding between green/yellow or red/white/blue. The choice of a lime grip made green/yellow a winner.
