Title: Seat newly stencilled
Post by: Drew400 on August 20, 2014, 10:09:35 PM: Got the stencil from Piki in Spain, via this forum.

Looks pretty good to me (along with my newly shod wheels). All I need now is a bike to put them on (with an engine that's got some bearings [see other post])!

Cheers,

D.

Hardest part was deciding the height at which to position it I thought !

There were traces of my old logo remaining which gave me a hint about positioing. I then cleaned that off with WD40 and a rag and washed the area with soap and water before going through the stencil process.

I have no doubt that, depending upon my use of the bike when it's eventually rebuilt, it'll wear off again, but it's pretty easy to do again if it came to that eventuality.

Cheers,

D.
