Animal Stencils
October 30, 2007

I originally started doing these stencil templates in Illustrator with the intention of using Ponoko's laser-cutting on-demand service to have some fancy, detailed stencils made up for me, that I could then use for making t-shirts or vandalizing things with spraycans or whatever, and when I'd done a decent number I went through the process of prepping and uploading my artwork, thinking if I just had it done on polypropelene or whatever it wouldn't be too expensive. And then I discovered that the materials are really the cheap part of the Ponoko process, it's the laser time itself that costs money, and having highly detailed work like these stencils done would cost a few hundred dollars - not to mention there was no guarantee they'd come out correctly the first time! D:

So now I'm investigating a budget solution, printing out the stencils on paper and cutting them out of plastic myself with a soldering iron.

Another public gathering space created for work, this one designed to look like a route 66-style roadside diner.
