Feed Yer Ego Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 but seriously, there really isnt THAT much to discuss about stencils. there's no need for 400 pages about ink, spraypaint or markers either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dBking Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I vote to un-sticky this thread. it is not congruent with the HOWTO theme of the yard, and serves only as a picture post, everyone knows how to cut and glue things already. posts in this thread are often shots in the dark and already answered before. flour water, stir, stick and run. there.

ɞℓiɴĸ Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Bias ^ A few things come to mind lol. First is the fact you and plenty others will start bitching once people start making stencil threads asking questions. Second, just because someone posted a picture doesn't mean the thread is no longer used to help people. And you can't even use the last page or two as an example. In the other stickies people use those like fuckin chat threads... If you wanna talk about something that should be done, it's combining the ink/marker threads. Hell as of yesterday people are even posting recipes in the marker thread. You could also join the Spray Paint and Caps thread. I like em either way, but what's the point when they go hand-in-hand, and in both threads you have people saying "take it to the other thread" lol. Granted stencils are usually weak sauce, but it's still part of this artform, whether you like it or not. In certain situations stencils can say alot more than graff could, like the dude with the pics has proven... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcuseMySarcasm Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 To be honest this is part of a how to tutorial, but it was lost in the crash. You can still see it on my blog. I had posted it here and on PG, but it was lost here and I don't feel like reformatting it. single-color-stencil-tutorial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dBking Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 ExcuseMySarcasm: i own/admin an invite-only graffiti community (http://www.CantStopRunning.com), and i think my people would like to have the aforementioned tutorial posted in our tutorials section. any objections to me posting it in there?

czecherbored Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 instead of just fighting to keep this thread alive... i'm actually gonna post something usefull... people don't realize that cheating is okay with stencils, that's what they pretty much are, is a hack for tagging. when a small connecting bar is ripped, just throw some tape on there. cut it to the right shape and slap it where you need to. the tape is actually stronger than the paper, so it helps reinforce thin areas. also, when you're totally done cutting out a stencil, put a spray on clear coat on it. i did this to one of my stencils, let it dry, left it out in the rain, and used it the next day... hope someone uses this info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcuseMySarcasm Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Good shit, man. Yeah, quite often I snap, cut, or rip off an important bit of a stencil. I just apply some handy clear tape and recut it to how I want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuckDaFakes Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I love stencils... they are so bloody handy when you dont necessarly have time or space for a throwie :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaysalmost Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 yeah i get a really big island going and i cut the only part holding it lol that really pisses me off. but when i tape it it distorts my stencil, like if the strip is too small. but this is really handy for larger stencils one thing i do to avoid underspray on a stencil im doing for a stencil that i can lay flat is to put small rocks on it or even used 9mm bullets :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɞℓiɴĸ Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Uh, I guess, if you're stenciling on horizontal surfaces.... I prefer vertical myself. To avoid underspray, use spray glue. If you've got the time to do it, put another piece of paper over it or a book and apply pressure to make sure all the little sharp ends are actually stuck to the wall. Way faster than touching each piece of the stencil with your fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaysalmost Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 ive been having problems with my stencils when i pull the exacto knife out of the stencil paper to start on a new line, it cuts furthur into my stencil. if anyone has this problem, pull the opposite direction you are cutting. if you cut right, pull out to the left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spitzdeadlee502 Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 i have an idea for a... contest/team. so people make a stencil and email it to me and 3 other people, we will choose whose stencil will be the winner then hopefully have hella lot of people print and cut the stencil out and paint it in as many places as possiable. we could make like a international team. first 3 people to reply will be the 3 other judges post email and post pic of the stencil to so others can help make a decision GET OUT AND PAINT THE WORLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
