Ringmaster "Decals"! Coming Soon!#0 source
All will be revealed shortly! Watch this space.

And you're wondering why the quotation marks around the word decals...

Teaser: They came out pretty good.

Currell, I have Super Ringmaster Vynal transfers if anyone needs them

of course I'm dizzy. Grown up men don't normally spin around in a circle for seven minutes . Do they?

Currell, as we all share in the undying love of the venerable Ringmaster, I have a funny Ringmstr story.
My brother-in-law is a 'lumber collector', and we 'framed up' a lifesize profile Ringmaster, 20 feet long, with a fuse crossection of 12". Wings were clipped to a 10' span, fuse sides were reversed 1/8" wall paneling. A VW engine case right half w/cyls, an old head, and valve cover, bolted to the right side doubler, with a cheek cowl on the left. A piece of 1-1/2" galvanized reduced to the propshaft, and a band-sawn 2X6" prop.
We gave it 3 coats of brushed enamel, wheelbarrow wheels, and 5/8" rod inside 3/4" black pipe for landing gear.
He lived next door to Campbell High School, so the plane got a lot of double-takes from folks driving by. So many rang the doorbell that my sister made us cut it up.
Sure wish we would have had those decals...

OK. They are ready. Understand that they are stickers, not decals, so you won't see your paint color through them. They are poly-something-or-other. They have a sticky back, where you peel off the protective paper, and apply.

They have excellent fuel proofing characteristics. You can lay 15% nitroed fuel on them for days on end, and nothing happens. Ditto for hot exhaust, too. Just don't take the fuel and try to rub it into the sticker like sandpaper. Brushed or sprayed Clear works just fine, and I would recommend it. (Most of this will be mooted by the fact that you are going to have the sticker out on the wing, anyway).

The color, with red as the main theme, is a little Tomato-ish, where the original is more Fire Engine. But still attractive. If the original is a "10", these are "9", I would say, in terms of resolution, and color accuracy.

$3 + a buck for shipping, so $4 total. Satifaction guaranteed.

You actually expect me to believe this?
Next thing, you will claim that it flew...

I received my decal from Currell and I have to say that they are nice. I wasn't familiar with this version of the Ringmaster so it was doubly appreciated. A really good deal for anyone who wants a quality product. Dennis
