What to do when FOX News Pisses you off with their debates??

Step One: Create the sign in Phortoshop. Then print using the option of size by multiple pages.

After getting more of the stencil cutout I may change my goal a bit.

For those that want to mass produce signs the next step would be to just get spray paint and use the stencil to paint out as many signs as you can.

I will update this thread again in a couple days with the next part of the "advanced project" a hint is..... Solar.

is a lot easier to work with.

If you can use a ruler you can do great signs without any computer or printer cuz it's all straight lines.
The banners we made used 16x8 inch letters, letters were 1.5 inches thick and used 2x2 inch off corners on all the angles.
Cutting is still a pain, but tracing them out is loads easier.

I own and operate a laser cutting business in Fort Collins, Colorado and made my own stencil from poster board. If anybody is interested in having one or more stencils shipped to your address, please let me know.

These are really great because they can be used again and again to make as many signs as you want, with any color spray paint.

Thanks,
Nick

Whats the cost of the stencils, and could you do a small Nissan pickup's tail gate sized one (multiple pieces is ok). I can get measurements in the morning.
I've cut my own stencils before, but they are no way near as nice as what you can make, and I'll do 3 sides of my pickup if I get one.
