Sharp Stenciling

A clearly stenciled logo makes a very nice finishing touch to a freshly strung racquet. The key to good contrast with the strings is to make sure you get good ink coverage. Unfortunately this almost always means that there will be too much ink on some spots. It pools up at each intersection of mains and crosses.

To overcome this and to control the mess that can come from stenciling I put some cardboard down on my work bench. After I have applied ink to the strings I tap the racquet on the cardboard to help remove the excess ink.
