Raiders of the Lost Ark Nazi Crate (HELP!)

[ProHaunter]

Hey folks!

I’m going to be attempting to build a 1:1 Ark Nazi Crate for a display idea but need help sourcing a stencil file! If you (or know of anyone that has the digital file for this stencil please let me know)

Love to see these builts. Do keep us updated. Good luck on finding the file.

Blow up that pic on a photocopying machine once you've built your crate. When you're satisfied with the scale; take a big piece of good cardboard and transfer the stencil onto it. Spray the cardboard with a few light coats of transparent mat varnish. Cut the black areas (text first and then Eagle second) put some weight on the cardboard to make sure there's a minimum of paint bleed while spraying...that's what I would do

Yeah a real one would have been done like that with some stiff card or heavy paper.

A long time ago (in another life it seems), I worked in the train repair yard while still living in Brussels. We had those sheet metals with cut-out letters/numbers that you could use to spray the train cars and wagons...but those were sheets were expensive to make, but would last a lifetime

When I was a kid (a long time ago) I had seen some stencils my dad had either from the shop he worked at or the navy yard from when he was younger.
I was told he worked on subs at Mare Island.
