Do any of our members have experience with silk screening?
I ask this for many commercial decals are silk screened. From looking around the web at hobby silk screening, it seems quite doable. It seems to very much be kin to photo etching at home...something else I intend to explore at some point. The only issue for me is that it is doubtful that it would make more sense than custom decals...as my On3 fleet won't need more than a few custom 8.5"x11" sheets. (I currently have enough decals for all of my present projects...except for my passenger cars).
