Old G.T. How do you make the coil top protectors? I've put a cover on mine, held on with masking tape. Really ugly, but it does the job,but a pain when it wears out,as you have to peel all the tape off. Yours looks mile better! wiley.
Its a pain, finally made a jig for cutouts though.
Its Signwriters sticker, the one they use for external signs.
Got a bit of A4, to outline the coil centre, cut out.
Drew an 8inch circle on the peel off part, flipped the centre cut out and sprayed a bit paint to get shape(you could trace).
Cut lines out, stuck on main coil area. Drew the centre slightly larger on the peel off (allowing for the vertical edge, cut out, stuck on.
Then you just do another 8inch circle, cut the top bit and the bottom bit off and place in the area that you use scoop on. If it starts to break open, just cut another one, peel off old one (the sheets peel off very easy), add new one. Light as feather, easy to clean, durable, UV resistant, comes in just about every colour you can imagine.
It sticks good to itself so if you mess the shape up you can just add a bit more.
Working on jigs for the body, be great to make something useful out of off cuts.
