No problem kamerade.

I would size it up on your desk top, print it on light or medium weight card with water-proof ink, and use a sharp craft knife to cut it out. Good luck & post some pics of the finished article???

Salut!

Hi Simon ....i made the box up this morning, printed on some white card i had in..... and it looks cracking !
Only prob i cannot get any waterproof ink for my printer, so i have sprayed the finnished box with some clear laquer i had in the garage, I then did a test on the finnished job and its waterproof :D i will get a photo up on the finnished job ....damm where's the camera lead gone :oops: watch this space........ i'll find it ! thanks Rich

Yeah the only reason I recommend water-fast ink is that I printed my first lot out on non-water proof ink and as soon as I took it in the field and got a couple of drops of water on it, it looked a mess. I used to recommend Epson Durabrite ink, but nowadays my HP regular ink seems pretty good.
