Small Favor needed.

[alvinsmith75]

Of all the forums I frequent, OSE has always been my favorite and most helpful. I know this may not be the correct spot for this post but I know it will be seen here. With that being said I just traded in my truck and there was a sticker on it that I want to re-create and I can not find it anywhere. My son adored it and thinks it is him on the decal(he is 3). I will be interested in purchasing a few and whoever does it can use and sell it as they wish. They may even get creative and make an r/c boat, plane, heli etc.... If someone on this site is interested in making some of the decals, or knows where I can get them made please let me know.
Thanks,
Alvin

Hi Alvin, if you can find in your area a shop that does vinyl signs, I can send you this file... just made it from your picture, so the little car is not very accurate, but it looks decent...

[Brushless55]

Very cool, I want one!

vinyl cutter

Well, that does look cool. now we just need someone with a vinyl cutter who is a sucker for RC stuff....

WAIT! I have a 24" wide vinyl cutter!

Cornel, send me the graphic, let me see if my software will take it and cut it.

Alvin, how tall is the kid graphic so I can scale it if it works?

You guys are the best!!!!!!!!!! Yes there are several vinyl shops here but they want a fortune for art work. That would be a huge help if you could send it to me. What do you need and e-mail? round75@cox.net
Brian what cutter do you have? My wife told me about one at Michaels called the Cricut.
The kid in the graphic is 6" tall. I would like to buy several if you are interested in selling them. Do they make chrome vinyl? That is what I would want along woth white. Let me know what you can do.
Thanks a million,
Alvin

I even went to the World of Wheels yesterday and could not find it at that huge vinly decal booth.

Brian, need an email address...
Alvin, sent!

[alvinsmith75]

Cornel sent me the artwork so between Brian making them, Doby's links, and my local vinyl shops I think I've now got it covered.
That is what I love about this forum. You ask and you shall receive.
Thanks to all,
Alvin

I do not remember what the cutter is. It is a sign shop size. Takes rolls of vinyl 24" wide x however long. Most are 10 yards or more. we use it at work to make signs and numbers for equipment. Looks like a CAD print plotter, but uses a knife blade.

Sending email info out now.

Update: It is a Copam CP-2500 They are about a grand with the stand, delivery, some spare parts and a couple rolls of vinyl. Simpler machine, but it has worked well for us.

I would like one of those as well but with a boat. can anyone do that? I would buy a couple

[CornelP]

Well, for a boat, I have this I made for the guys over at RCGroups... optimized for cutting also.

[Steven Vaccaro]

Cornel whats the chance of getting a offshore looking cat or deepvee with the first kid in the picture?

[CornelP]

...just give me a couple of hours... I'll see what I can do :)

[CornelP]

Ok Steven, obvious choice was the one in your logo, in two versions. Third is a variation on your logo towards a cat.
