Hey Randy!
My Mom said she ran into your mother the other day and was told you had
gotten layed off at AquaGlass. I hope you are OK and have found
something else. If I can make it to Brodhead this year I want to see
your Pietenpol there.
Thanks for the wishes,

Most graphics shops use the same equipment/material. A long time ago I worked
for Gerber Scientific, a leading mfgr of sign making equipment and dealt with
a lot of their customers across the country. There is quite a bit of variance
in what sign shops charge, some due to materials, mostly due to markup. Any
shop that caters specifically to aviation is likely to charge more just because
of the association. The alternative which may or may not be considered, is
to stencil your design and hand paint for a real period look. It might not be
as perfect as a computer generated image but that imperfection might just be
the look you are going for.

Your post just triggered an "ah ha" moment for me. I have a killer logo in mind
and was going to approach one of those graphics places until I just read your
post. The hand-painted lettering will look far and away better and more period
authentic. THANKS!!

Subject: | Re: Making own graphics |
That is an excellent point Glenn. I have been thinking of that very thing as well.
I am worried that a vinyl "decal" of any sort just won't look the way I would
like. So, I thought about using my computer and Photo Shop to make the stencils
and then hand paint them on...just as you talked about. This will give me
my own graphics, the look and the colors I want. (in theory) Still just some
thoughts for now, but when I am in between epoxy and fabrication, I look ahead
and fiddle with such things.

Copy that Dan. If you have a way to make the stencils, you can do anything you
wish, at home, when it is convenient for you. You have total control of color,
sheen, size, etc. Looks like this will be what I will be doing as well...when
I get there.

Subject: | Re: Making own graphics |
Here's another idea for you guys that want to paint with a stencil. You can send
your graphic to a sign shop and they can run paper through their plotter with
something called a pounce wheel instead of the usual vinyl cutting knife.
This punches perforations into the paper and makes for a really simple to use
stencil. Just tape to the surface and hit with some contrasting spray paint and
there are your coloring book lines. The graphic shop shouldn't charge you
much because the paper costs them next to nothing, you didn't need their artistic
services, and now they know you know all their secrets. (Well, they will
probably still find a way to gouge you but it would be interesting to find out
how it changes the price when shopping)
Graphic shops will need the image sent to them in a specific vector format to be
compatible with their software and they may charge you for cleaning it up and/or
converting it to their format. This is likely the opportunity they will
use to gouge you. Do your homework, convert it to their format yourself and give
them as little work to do as possible and it shouldn't cost much (but they
won't like you either). Now the quality of the sign doesn't matter and just
go for the place that can do it the cheapest.

Great post Larry Williams and GREAT line above. I couldn't agree more

Douwe,
I have the vid If you'd like it. No charge.
Kind of annoys me, I sent it to someone on this group by snail mail, and
they didn't acknowledge it. Even when I emailed to see if they got it,,,no
response.
People stink.
PS let me know if you want it, and give me a snail mail address.

Pounce your own. Go to a sewing shop ( or your mother)
and get a pounce wheel. The traditional way is to
" pounce" chalk dust in a bag through the holes..
If you choose a wheel with big enough spikes you can
probably spray through the holes.
Since you're going DIY you might as well go all the way.
