    Hi all. What started out as a hobby due to my wife’s love of car stickers at shows and the current car club having issues with obtaining there club stickers.
    I just down size my car and with what was left I ordered a cutter and software a pixmax cutter and vinyl master plus a graphics tablet and soon descovered I really can’t draw very well and the cutter was not the best but to learn with it has been great.
    I now look after 3 car clubs and have just been asked can we do clothing for them so what started as a hobby is turning more in to a business which I’m enjoying more than my day job.
    So I’m in the middle of converting our spare room into an office/workshop and hope to have the funds after Xmas for a nice quality cutter and heat press and this is what has brought me here the need for good info and hopefully make some new friends along the way.

    Cheers Mark

    That’s great, Mark. What car clubs do you look after? I used to do a bit of the same for my car club, GTOOC.

    Anyways, welcome along.

    Cheers for the welcome.

    I was on my phone when i registered and could not get it to make the pic small enough lol.
    I look after Cymraeg Scoobie Club my 1st go at doing club stickers and at design.
    Another friends Subaru club and the local Newport JDM car club. I like the GTOs but our hearts are for Skyline and Subaru which sadly we own neither as we are just starting a project road/track car an MX-5 with Turbo conversion with about 300 Bhp at the wheels and weighing about 900 kg :lol1:

    Cheers Mark

    That is insane!!! :yikes:

    And who doesn’t love a Skyline!! I’ve always fancied an R33 or a Supra but I just can’t bring myself to leave the GTO scene, and I think I’d be single if I even suggested running both, as well as my 530D work wagon :shake:
