    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.

    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. -------- Glenn Thomas N????? http://www.flyingwood.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=234439#234439

    Glenn, 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. --- On Fri, 3/13/09, Glenn Thomas <glennthomas@flyingwood.com> wrote: From: Glenn Thomas <glennthomas@flyingwood.com> Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Making own graphics <glennthomas@flyingwood.com> Most graphics shops use the same equipment/material.

    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. --- On Fri, 3/13/09, helspersew@aol.com <helspersew@aol.com> wrote: From: helspersew@aol.com <helspersew@aol.com> Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: Making own graphics Glenn, Your post just triggered an "ah ha" moment for me.

    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. -------- Glenn Thomas N????? http://www.flyingwood.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=234453#234453

    Back when Waldo was a daily hot topic, someone said they had some "extras" they were going to sell affordably. If that ever came to pass, would the gentleman contact me because I still can't seem to find one. Thanks, Douwe finishing cockpits, hooking up instruments, getting ready to paint fuse. 90% done, 90% left to go!

    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.
