    I know Cane does the UKRM spangly stickers, but didn't someone set
    themselves up doing this full-time?

    I need to price up some simple rear screen graphics for the company
    shed.

    Ahh, OK. I'll look for someone local in that case.

    This is a chap I know from UKGSer
    http://humvee-graphics.com/catalog/

    His name is Steve and he lives in Cardiff.
    I know he has, or has access to, the machinery. The decal business is a
    sideline to his main work, but I'm sure he could arrange something.

    Send him an email and I'm sure he'll get back to you once he has returned
    from riding his bike to Corsica and back.

    There's a bloke in the Mazda RX-7 club who does vinyl stickers and the
    ones I've seen look very good. He's in Milford Haven so that may not
    be as convenient as Caadiff for you...

    Let me know and I can put you in touch with him

    Heh. Probably not the best person to order from, then.

    Oh great, all the world needs is a dyslexic sign-maker...

    Must be the same bloke who does the writing on the front of ambulances.

    Heh - I've just looked. There are some cheap cutters out there.

    The only issue I can see with that plan is the software to drive them.

    All very well buying a cutter for 80 quid, but they want another 50 quid
    for software - and would I really use it enough to make it worthwhile?

    Hmmm, checked completed listings - stuff with 1 day to go at 40 quid has
    a flurry of activity in the last few hours, meaning the completed price
    is well over 200 quid.

    I definitely wouldn't use it enough to make that worthwhile.

    Better than that self-obsessed chap who used to do the fire engines.

    I have a vinyl cutter that I use to run off masking for my airbrush
    work. I bought some rolls of vinyl in a few different colours just in
    case I wanted to make any decals so I should be able to put together
    what you're wanting unless you need large lettering (about 17cm high
    maximum) as it's not a full size machine. If that's any good to you
    please drop me an email and I'll work out some costings for you.

    All the best, Grant
