  • Can anyone recommend supplier of cut to size white boards

    Posted by Saph-D on November 16, 2011 at 2:42 pm

    Hi,

    I am looking for two white boards 80cm x 50cm (to fit in a specific place) which I gather is not a standard size. Can anyone please suggest a source for some ready made which are as close to that size as possible OR recommend a supplier that will cut to size.

    The boards do NOT have to be ‘pretty’ with a frame surround, it is functionality that is required – good quality write on wipe off board.

    Ideally I will need to put lines on them too – does anyone have any experience of how these will be affected by the repeated wiping if I used vinyl ?

    As in all things these days, price matters 😮

    Thank you !

    Not sure where you will get boards these days, I just use to buy the closest size nobo board, remove the frame, cut the board to size and then cut the frame to suit and refit.
    Used to make a lot of traffic boards for haulage companies, they would all have various types of grid which were all cut from vinyl. Never had any complaints and some of the boards have been used for years so vinyl shouldn’t be a problem at all.

    Not 100% certain but seem to remember a thread that said Robert Horne did this stuff. Or maybe it was Amari lol

    May be wrong though.

    Cheers
