Thanks guys,they are a fiddle to stick and pick off but look good. Yes I am using the bin to catch the some of the grit, on this job it caught just over half. Next time I will do away with the workmate and put the bin on the floor on top of a plastic sheet. The problem I have here is space, I have seen some plans for a fold flat unit to blast in, might go down this line. My shed is 12 by 8 foot and is full to the brim at the moment, got to think about the storage of whatever I make. I cut the vinyl out using one of these www.rolanddg.co.uk/content/public/products/GX24.aspx and the vinyl is this sort of stuff cgi.ebay.co.uk/5MTR-24-SELF-ADHESIVE-SIGN-MAKING-VINYL-CUTTER-ROBO-/200597578991? pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2eb48c24ef The vinyl cutter is a fantastic tool, most schools have them but dont do much more than make stickers. In conjunction with the program (Tech soft 2d design) it is a really useful tool. Sorry the links dont work, not sure why :bang: |

Got the 2D already V2. but looks like the cutting will have to be at school. not come across a surplus roland stikka yet. oh well draw at home ,memory stick then cut at school. Thanks for the information guys. |

Great work. Thinking about doing designs on windows (or someone's eyeglasses if they were deserving). John. |

Nice work. Used to blast the silvering off the back of mirrors. I used a rubber paint that was screen printed, had to be very carful with the front!!! Bill |
