Need a couple of large stencils...

Wed Jul 14, 2010 3:59 pm

1940's era Lockheed logo & a large (ish) NAA logo. Any ideas?

Basically I ended up with a 1940's Craftsman toolbox that looked like crap, it has avaition history. I cleaned it up & gave it a lick of paint. Now I want to add a couple of logos.

I'm thinking a Lockheed logo on the cabinet door at the bottom & a NAA logo on one side.

Before..

Ex-wifes exercise mat is being sacrificed to become drawer liners :)

Some of the *junk* that was left in it...

The logo marked items have real value @ airliners conventions-some guys get $3 a piece for current SWA swizzle sticks, the TWA stuff is vauable-

The 3 matchbooks & 2 unused parts tags now reside on my mantle :)

I wonder what aviation test requires the bullet. Has to be an electrical problem!

That's actually an educational aid, usually employed in teaching pilots not to even think about touching any tools... or any part of the aircraft that require tools to access... :wink:

As we all know, the most dangerous thing in the Army is an Officer with a map..... it follows that the most dangerous thing at an airport is a pilot with a screwdriver....

I may be able to help you out. Are you looking for a paint mask that you would apply to the toolbox, and then paint the area and peel the mask leaving a painted on logo, or are you looking for a vinyl decal that is applied directly to the toolbox?
