I have had a lot of decals on order for quite a while now; many of which will be original or at least from scans or pictures. I do not have the means to make my own decals, there are people much better at it than me and, give them time, they come up trumps.

I have a number of frame sets that need building and all need decals. It is as if only once the decals are applied that the frame sets demand a compliment of parts; parts that work with them. It may be that I have this arse about front but it is what I have boiled it down to. I do have plans for all the builds, quite detailed plans, and most of the parts (with some annoying exceptions) with which to build them, but until decals are applied one can never be sure if they will work together. I really need to see the decals to be sure of the plan, is it just me?

Here is the Shimano 4000 with it's decals, I think I am on to a good thing.

Roll on more time for fun stuff; although the fabulous bank holiday weather make me want the beach and a swim (I have been been for a swim before at Easter, many years ago, and it is not for the faint hearted). I will wait a couple of months for that swim but in the mean time there is room for BMX...

bobafett:
Nice  ;)

Chilli Rinse:
Looking ace. I'm really looking forward to seeing this finished, something special for us to feast our eyes on I'm sure.
