That's the one I've already got, but there's no way to edit it ( PDF file) and fill in the blanks, at least no way for this dinosaur.

Well, the good news is I first worked in industry as a draughtsman, so my printing is pretty good, even today. For you youngins, a draughtsman was the guy who drew up machine parts before computers were invented, no CAD back then. Yes, I'm old.

Wait, I thought that's what they used to call bartenders in places that had banned hard liquor?

At the suggestion of Mrs. Deuce I loaded the vinyl cutting software on her laptop and made a few test cuts. I'm a bit limited with colors (very little white for instance) and I'm taking the small cutter, but it's coming to Florida. I'll be hanging around the parking lot from Wednesday night onward. Come find me. We'll make stickers. laugh

We considered throwing the cutter in the trailer but i cut what i needed last night and just bringing my application tools.  Ugh, the last day of work tomorrow isn't getting any shorter even though i pulled almost 12 hours today.

I just want to publicly say thanks to Duster for taking me in. I half built a car for the $2003 Challenge, but my second kid being born put the kibosh on attending the event. I've always wanted to go.
I didn't know if I could make it two weeks ago. When I figured out I could, Duster said he had room on the floor. 
I finally get to go to a Challenge. 
There aren't enough ways to say thanks for that.

Looks bad for me, but in a good way.  My sons soccer team, well, since I'm the coach, our soccer team that has played mostly hard and still sucked all season finally clicked tonight in the first playoff game and won.  We were 5th of 6 teams and beat #2 soundly!  The bummer is that the next game is this Friday and there is nothing I won't do for my kids, especially not quit before the end.  Unless we can change the game day due to homecoming (ugh) then I will wait on YouTube and "notphotobucket"

Good luck and have fun!

I feel like i got run over by a truck from working so hard yesterday.  Get to do it again today, come home and clean out truck/pack, finish strapping stuff in trailer, hook up and go.  Oh yeah have to hit summit racing on way and get my bottle filled, Last minute clearance rack shop while they fill bottle, then lead south.
