Dagwood 57 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I recall my father using one of these on a new engine box and I think it was a Formica product but it's been a few years. We've also got a heap of tables with them at work and looking at the charts, they were produced around 1990 if that helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sudden5869 17 Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 Found a supplier, but they need a run of at least 4 to go ahead. They all need to be the same chart, so far they have 2 interested in Approaches to Auckland, NZ 532. The Big Fish, Cascades Road, Pakuranga is organising these. If you're keen contact either Phil or Andrea. 09 576 2764. Hopefully can get a enough orders and the cost is realistic. Thanks to everyone for all of the ideas and alternatives. Boots, I haven't got to BBYC to ask about the leaners / tables, but I know the ones you mean... Phil at Burnsco HMB put me onto The Big Fish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 So after we all threw our 2 cent thoughts at what it was, what is it? Is it printed on by a machine, or screen printed or ??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sudden5869 17 Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 Printed on Formica. Not sure how. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Povnation 3 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I can answer the how..There are printers that can print on just about anything they call them wide format, I would look for a graphics company that print anything from posters to billboards, I have seen everything from plastic to chipboard printed on so a table top should be simple. I will ask around and see if I can't find a place that can do it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SloopJohnB 323 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 How about a chart like this. http://www.latitudekinsale.com/products/3d-charts/ http://www.land-fall.co.uk/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chewing Gum 17 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Formica NZ used to make these charts years ago, they may be called Laminex now and I don't know if they still do them. The one on our boat dates back to 1982 and is still in awesome condition Quote Link to post Share on other sites
