Girth 1 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Hi Yorke_angler,You have to be a bit careful when it comes to those stickers, when they are left in the sun they will shrink and distort, giving you a less accurate measurement.CheersGirth Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yorke_angler 0 Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 thanks for pointing that out Girth! think I might reconsider now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
macmanluke 16 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Comes down to using quality vinyl which will reduce shrinkage and also printing it slightly oversize to allow for shrinkage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cleaver 65 Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 I replaced mine on the boat with a 900mm metal ruler. It was a wide one with very bold numbers and easy to read. The part at the beginning of the ruler wher the is a hole for hanging before the measurements start was approx 30mm and i folded it to act as a stopThey come in 300mm, 400mm, 600mm and up, shouldn't be hard to find a size to suit.

Cant remember how much they were though.emailed them a few times and never get a reply. I've gone the metal ruler route and going to laminate PIRSA's size limit leaflet and glue it to the ice box, should do the job Quote Link to post Share on other sites
