    I’ve just registered on this forum and would like to share my work with everyone who asks 😉

    Anyway.
    Who am I and what do I do?

    Well, I’m Dennis van Orsouw (just Dennis) and I live in Oss (Netherlands).
    I own a webdesigncompany since 2000 and started to do signmaking work about 6 months ago.
    Now I stop doing webdesign and focus on signmaking only.

    This is realy the work I want to do.
    I specialise in decals for cars. I prefer sportscars, but any car will do.

    Last month I opened a webshop and since then, I only make and send stickers all day. 😀 I LIKE IT! 😉

    Ofcourse I need to know how to apply the decals and stripingsets. So I’ve used my own car to test, test and test.

    Here is a recent picture of my car.


    (Yes, these pictures were taken on a dyke 😉 )

    The hardware I use is a Summa D-60 and I design/cut with CorelDraw and EasySign.

    Wow!

    That’s what I call a warm welcome. 😎
    I think I gonna anjoy my stay here. Like to help if someone asks and I will ask a lot too 😉

    Anyway.
    Oss is in Noord-Brabant indeed. It is about 1 hour drive to Venlo, so not that far. (nothing is to far over here. It’s a small country.)

    The flames I’ve got from the Signforums US board. (ok, just the outlines, I’ve played with the design a bit)

    Jawel Dewi, ik heb voor een paar jaar in Nederland gewoond. Ik waar eerst bij een slachterij als een uitbenen medewerker dan heb ik verder als een frachtwagen chaffeur voor het selfde bedrijf gewerkt. Ik heb in 1996 terug naar England gekomen om engineering te leren. 😉 😉 I
    n short, i lived there for a few years and worked over there as a boner in a slaughterhouse then as a truck driver for the same company. Came back to the UK in 1996 to study engineering. I also speak German, Belgian, real Scots and what i can remember from my school French. I did o.k. for the few years in Holland, never took any official schooling, just knuckled down to learn the language with a dictionary and the subtitles on the American T.V. progs. And it has been 8 years since i last spoke/wrote the language so i am well rusty
