rinse Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 cant argue with you on stenciling, i have a few original cuts myself. etch isnt something i practice but i have seen one or two that looked okay. it seems like alot of kids that get down like that dont really know how to use it. i mean if its permanent wouldnt you want it to look like you knew what you were doing instead of coping a sloppy tag for everyone to see for a really long time?

gfreshsushi Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 let's not talk about etch. but as far as stencils go, they can be done well. i've seen some really shitty ones and some great ones (banksy, duh). but for a tshirt? BUY A SILKSCREEN! they're easy to use, easy to clean up, and it's a lot of fun to make bootleg tshirts of your favorite band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRskrumps Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Yeah silk screening is dope but its kinda hard u need alot of stuff. Like emulsion and a drak room and u need to buy a screen. I think ur talking about Iron on paper crap thats eazy as hell just need a computer and photo shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_b0b Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 bump this info. To make my stencil I photocopy/print out onto white a4 and then laminate the paper at work. Cut out the stencil then and it is nice & easy using a craft blade and presto a ready to go, handy sized stencil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinse Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 yup, i'm feelin' some increased traffic in the yard forum recently. its good stuff. so is this thread. nice work fr8 life. i like using a flat finish paint with a caligraphy cap on stencils. i think those caps work well with stencils, they fan out the flow of paint which offers good coverage with just a couple quick sweeps of the can and keeps any possible dripping at bay.

26SidedCube Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Bring a big enough Zip-Lock to put it in so you can slip it in your jacket while you're not using it. Pretty well-duh.. but I didn't think of this the first time I made one and had to find a bag on the side of the road to wrap it in... talk about not thinking first.

ODS-1 Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 I used to have this whole stencil guide that banksy wrote. It had all the details and now I can't find it. But basically, use exacto knives. Boxcutters suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhondoe212 Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 this works pretty good, make a stencil inside a box thats say... at least 12 inches squared and make shure it has pretty big hand holes to cary it around... put some cans in it. vuala. all you have to do is act like you're carying around something very heavy put it down on the floor. and act like you tieing you're shoe... oh how'd that get there? or lay it agenst a wall and look in you're pokets in with one hand and spray with the other. incognito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYKLIKN Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 For carrying them around, u can use the manilla folder trick, but also get a normal (uncut folder) and put the stencil folder in it, this way it'll look like your carrying a folder, and won't get paint on you, plus if they ask u to open it, it just looks like a folder :lol: It mite help to put something in it... or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
