Nice!

Those labels look great. Care to share the graphics file(s)?

A couple of months ago I hit a moment in time when every rocket I had under construction was finished with painting so all my paint stands were "open". I gathered them all together for a family picture. There are 35 of them plus two very large ones out in the garage.

Oh, my. That is marvelous. And here's where I'd take it ... put on the label the model name, best motors, expected altitudes, recovery notes (wadding sheets, chute size) ... and the stand becomes a field manual for the model.

Of course this comes after I've invested in a fistful of Estes yellow doodads.
