Seeks Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Hi guys, hope this is the right place for this topic. I am in search of an alternative for a very special part to build completely the lowloader which Design Han created. It is this item: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3069bpb034 It is quite rare/expensive, so I search for other possibilities to replace this. Perhaps some of you know good and small sticker sets. There are four used as 1x2 single and six as two times 1x6 tile. I hope somebody can help me. I already thought about buying http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?P=3069b and using a permanent marker or sth like this to paint it by myself. Thx in advance. Seeks Quote
zux Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 (edited) There are a lot of similar stickers for City and Technic sets that come in 1x wide plate size with different length. You then can easily cut them to required length. Check stickers for these sets: 42006, 42008, 42009, 42023, 42024, 60017, 7592, 7593, 8110, maybe more. Edited May 1, 2014 by zux Quote
DrJB Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 (edited) You can even print your own stickers if needed ... Though, that specific part (1×2) is only 15-20 cents on bricklink. How many do you need? Edited May 1, 2014 by DrJB Quote

Oh really? Do you have any explanation or guide how to? Sounds good. Yes there are a few of them on bl, but most times only 1 or 2 and additionally overseas, as I am from Germany... And the only guy having ten of 'em wants 1,32€/piece... Otherwise I will try to get some stickers from the sets zux mentioned. Quote
rodiziorobs Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 The City dump truck 4434 has some stickers like that one. I think it was in last year's, so you might be able to pick up on clearance, but it might not be the best (cheapest) way to get what you need. Quote
Milan Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Oh really? Do you have any explanation or guide how to? Sounds good. It is really easy to make your own stickers, I do that all the time. For your case, use this link (or search on your own) Then make the size you want in resize program, or just crop a section. Even paint can do it. Next, print that on stick paper, or take it to the print-shop. Quote
