Can you send them to Scott so he can post them?

Do NOT feel badly because of your printers. Short of Scott and Carl, you've probably done more to bring joy to BARs everywhere than anyone else.

I worded my earlier post poorly. I know the decals aren't doable, but I am in the market for a BNC-20Y, upscaled to BT-55. And probably one for BT-60, too. Let me know if you're interested.

Gord,

Are you still selling old kits? I’ve tried day and night for awhile, and your website shows the “closed for maintenance” message.

Don't forget JimZ. He's been around longer than I with BAR goodies on the internet.

Here is a neat video "How to print on anything" . I wonder if decals could be reproduced with this method.

JimZ and Sven are both valid. I should have prefaced my statement with something like "It's been my experience...."

I do maintain that Gordo is right up there.
