Checklist Sticker

[doctormike]

I'm still a newbie (100 hours on my JJ), and I used to carry one of those TDI preflight checklist cards with me. But it's awkward to hold onto while gearing up on a dive boat, and I kept losing it.

I made these stickers to put on my handset, and printed them out on Avery waterproof shipping labels with a laser printer.

If anyone wants them, PM me with your email address and I'll send you the Word document.

I have mine in the same place but I use white electrical tape and a fine tip sharpie. Granted I have to replace it after a couple dozen dives or so. Let us know how it holds up over time.

Yup, that’s exactly what I did before this.... I used the sharpie on white duct tape and the ink smudged pretty quickly. Maybe electrical tape would hold it better.

I figure that since I can print out ten of these for a few cents, even if they peel off after a few dives it’s still easier that the old method. Plus, my handwriting is so bad I can hardly read it myself!

www.divinglabels.com make very high quality personalised and waterproof labels for diving gear. They offer standard name labels but also do all sorts of customisation. www.divinglabels.com

Cool! The product that they offer looks like fixed sizes, and not big enough for the checklist. I wonder if they would do a custom order? The print and paper is probably nicer than the Avery stuff, and looks like it's very readable. Maybe I'll ask them.

Hi The Chairman,

Do you mean for your diving labels? If so, you can upload any logo you wish during the order process.

But it's not showing it!

Chairman! It'll show when you move to the invoice page. Additionally, I believe Ray will email you to confirm your order, picture and design before printing as well.

OK, update on the stickers. I just got my first order from divinglabels.com, and they did a terrific job! The ones I printed out on Avery waterproof labels tended to peel off after a few dives. Not such a big deal to replace them, but these are much nicer. Got them in two versions - standard Vinyl and 3M reflective:
