Wath out! Rubber cement dosen't work....It stays on the clothes even if you put it on the stencil and is visible even after you run them through the wash a couple of times.
Just a warning

What the hell are you on about?

If you try to use rubber cement to stick a stencil down to not get underspray...it would make more sense if it had got posted on pg. 280 of the DIY thread instead of 281

[QUOTE=Crack-Rock-Steady]I made a wallet from Priority mail tape, which is usually free at the post office. Truly punx.[/QUOTE]
that sounds cool. do you have a picture?

[QUOTE=incubass]What ways do u guys use to hold the stencil down so there is no underspray.I know tape but what a bout for the thin ares like in the "h" or "g" of this [url]http://stencilpunx.mattrunningnaked.com/stencils/streetlight2.gif[/url]. Any tips would help.[/QUOTE]

me and bct use small rocks :thumb:

^thats actually not a bad idea.

damn right.

Use tape, but just cut it with an X-acto.

I get most of my stencils laminated before I cut them.

[QUOTE=POINTLESS5448]that sounds cool. do you have a picture?[/QUOTE]
No, I could take one though. It's really nothing special. It's not as good as most of the tape wallets I've seen. I just took the tape and folded it onto itself so it wasn't sticky. Then I just made a wallet shape.:confused:

I'll take some pictures later.

the small rocks thing is the **** i used to use that blue painters tape but is expensive takes forever and doen't work as well plus both me an pointless hold down the small islands with are hands as we spary which works well but my fingers are almost always covered in paint

That's what I do too, and it works fine.

I DYId the shi[size=2]t[/size] out of my PE shirt again, it's got Op Ivy and Public Enemy now. Pics when I get back tonight.

How expensive is that?

I use photo paper but its like 40-50 cents a sheet, so is lamination cheaper?

Well my mum is a teacher, so I just go to her school and get whatever I need laminated for free.

But I'm sure most printing type shops could do it for you cheap.

WHy don't you get rubber gloves or something whilst holding down all the islands?

Use pis or thumbtacks to hold little islands in place.

rubber gloves are for pussies.

pins

They let you do stuff to your P.E. clothes? At my school, that would count as a non-suit. I wanted to change mine so it would say "DRAGON" instead of "ARAGON", haha.

That would suck to have to wear a suit.

:lol: I thought he meant his Public Enemy shirt? Same with my school though!

So today I got bored and made this. It isn't your usual DIY thing to make...but eh, who cares. I was bored.

Where do you live?

Tamworth, NSW. Definately sucks to be me. :angry:

Haha, I live in inner-Sydney. What's Tamworth like? I know there's a skatepark...

Dude, you're damn good at that, I saw the other one you did the other week, but next time, don't ruin a Handel vinyl, that sh[COLOR="Black"]i[/COLOR]t's gold.

And dude, happy birthday

Haha the skatepark is nothing to get excited about!
The people or the city? Both are pretty average.
I like Sydney, thinking of moving there next year...but maybe somewhere colder...

Yeah I like Sydney, but it is still a fair drive from the Snowy Mountains or whatever. It beats Canberra, that's for sure, what a hole. We probably should stop going off the thread topic.

i cut all my stencils into floders i just print **** out on normal paper and tape it to the floders

[QUOTE=clash_hooligans]:lol: I thought he meant his Public Enemy shirt? Same with my school though![/QUOTE]

Oh, is that what he meant? Haha, now I don't know!

I'm going to replace the Leftover Crack and Choking Victim patches on my jacket, since I'm no longer a big fan and they seem to be the biggest conversation grabber for people, and it'd be awkward having them ask me about them when I don't like them anymore.

Instead of buying new patches, I'm going to try my hand at making them. Stencilpunx had a nice 7 Seconds stencil I was going to use for one, but now the stencil part of the site doesn't work anymore :upset:

Dude, you could handle making your own 7 Seconds stencil with Irfan View...or mspaint.

I'm also lazy.

And the new design of Stencilpunx sucks, especially that image option. Let's put 100+ images on one page.

I need something else to replace the other patch.

And white fabric paint.

I want to make a stencil, but now since it's getting warmer I couldn't stencil on a jacket.
I should try a shirt and go crazy....

I just need to actually do it and stop being lazy.
