Monty22 685 Report post Posted December 31, 2020 I have a buddy that enjoys woodworking. He's quite good and has done several projects for me in the past. He lives across the street , and several winters made a giant whalers logo snow deflector to protect my mailbox from the snow plow's wrath. He had talked in the past about doing a hockey themed post to hold my mailbox. Well, he was off this week and needless to say he's 90% done with a 8 foot high 4" x 4" giant hockey stick. Apparently he has a co -worker who does vinyl decals, so the last step is deciding on a paint scheme and graphics. Here is where MSH comes in. I'm trying to figure out what stick to emulate. It's pressure treated wood, and there is some putty at the heel, which shoots down my first idea of wood grained Northland Gordie Howe style. I'm considering a white with red graphics Titan 2020 with the black blade ala Kevin Dineen in keeping with a Whaler theme. It could be painted very light tan and go with a SherWood 5030 scheme. I'd be remiss if I didn't tap into the collective opinions of MSH so let's hear some suggestions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chippa13 1803 Report post Posted January 1 I'd go 5030, no chance I'm putting 2020 on anything. 3 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shooter27 114 Report post Posted January 5 Agreed with all the above, I think the 5030 is the most recognizable/iconic one. Maybe the PMP 7000 that I believe was more popular in the NHL? Or you could do something flashy and try to recreate the Gretzky Easton with some shiny paint? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buzz_LightBeer 716 Report post Posted January 7 Maybe midwest bias, but an old Christian with the diamond blade design my look good 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Monty22 685 Report post Posted January 8 I used Christians as well growing up, thought did cross my mind to do a slapsock Christian blade and Easton shaft , but I think I'm going to go with the 5030 scheme. Thanks for the input. I'll post some pics once it's done. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
