<div dir="ltr">I suppose a good thing to start is to decide on the overall dimensions of the stencil and what material...<div><br></div><div>I find that a stencil has a recovery time. Once used you have to wash it and let it dry. So if you want to do continuous usage you might need more than one.. For cardboard, you can't wash it so you just use paint sparingly and let it dry between runs. You don't get very many runs out of a cardboard one if it has fine detail...</div><div><br></div><div>Do you have the paint chosen yet? </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><br><div><div><br></div><div><div>--</div><div>Darcy Whyte</div><div><br></div><div>Art+ <a href="http://inventorartist.com/" target="_blank">inventorArtist.com</a> | Aviation <a href="http://rubber-power.com/" target="_blank">rubber-power.com</a></div><div>Contact: <a href="mailto:darcy@inventorArtist.com" target="_blank">darcy@inventorArtist.com</a> | 613-563-3634 by appointment (no text)</div></div></div><div><br></div></div></div></div>

The lettering would be somewhere between<br> 1" to 3" high. Stencils will have up to 36 characters.
