Any craft store can get them even if they don't stock them but if
they don't have the style you want go to a sign shop and they can custom cut the numbers/letters from stock material. Pick a font and size and the CAD cutter (I don't know what else to call it) will cut them out.

"the CAD cutter (I don't know what else to call it)"
FYI, it is probably a lasercam and can cut anything from the thin plastics for the signs to sheet metal to aerospace composite materials. |

Nah, I'm not back, but just finished check on the thread I started, and this was at the end of it. Well, nothing's changed. Ask instead of trying to find it on your own, everyone's still doing it. Google. Try "decal making", "how to make decals", etc. Once used google to find a link on decal making, very simple, doesn't even need a printer. JOAT Failure is ALWAYS an option. - JOAT Been there, done that, I was looking for a reasonable solution that I might have missed. I am sure that with all your expertise you would have done better than this answer, but then again........ |

Hi Norvin,
There are several sources for decal staock to run through your laser or ink jet printer. Easy to use and real good quality. The model rocket people use it all the time. I never had a problem with it and it's not to expensive. I always bought it from http://www.paper-paper.com/ but there are several other places as well.

TIA Norvin This looks like it might work, now all I have to do is figure out how to do the shadow thing with the numbers. |
