Pinstripers-Lettering Fonts?*Progress pics*

My g/f is has just starting to lay some lines, and it's actually pretty impressive. I want her to letter my toolbox drawers, but cant find any fonts

Do any of you guys have some fonts to show?

 

Print some off your computer - that's what I do.

 

Check out WWW.DAFONT.COM
Tons of free fonts you can download there. Coolfonts.com is another free one. WWW.LETTERHEADFONTS.COM is all that stuff up there on that top shelf. Not free but you will find all kinds of killer fonts there. WWW.PAINT.NET is a cool, free, photoshop type software download so you can mess with arrangements to print out.
Happy hunting

 

Thanks alot man! DAFONT had it for me.
I'm going with "Sailor Larry" (obviously a Sailor Jerry font)
It looks great, and it happens to be her favorite Rum.
Thank you so much

Put up some pics for us to see

 

Will do brother. She will at least have a little done by wednesday night. I wish it was a cool old toolbox, its just a blue craftsman rollaway...

 

check out letterhead fonts

 

check out houseind.com or veer.com ,they have the best ones

 

never thought of that...preety cool

 

Got one drawer knocked out. I think it came out great.

 

Super clean

 

Dayum! How long has she been laying stripes? She def has major talent!... now is it me or is that toolbox floating?

 

thats cool....

 

hope these help.

 

Maybe 5-10 hours with a brush (a pinstriping brush) in her hand. This is her first attempt at lettering. She saw a couple striped pieces around my place, and wanted to give it a shot. Got her a couple brushes and paints, and picked out a font, and went to town.

She is an art student, and has some serious natural ability, in both photography, and art.

I know these don't fit in here at all, but since I saw you were a photographer, I thought you could appreciate these that she took for me.

Looks Damn good. Speaking from a guys point and sure I'll get some back up here. Lets see some work in action.

 

she's good!

 

damn boy she has some talent there! Looks nice...tell her to keep up with the good work!

 

Wow! The stuff on here is amazing!

 

Very, very nice. Looking forward to updates.

 

Is she on a Mac? I can hook you up will all kinds of House Industry fonts. They're the ones that make the official Rat Fink fonts. Let me know. Will not work on a PC.

 

Very well done, She seems to be a natural. As an old sign guy i offer this tip, that it needs a little space around it. Good job.

 

I'm doing a outboard motor cover and the guy wants the boat's name in the Godfather font. After an hour of looking around I found it right away on www.dafont.com. It's great.

 

Tips are appreciated. Space on the sides, or top and bottom? All around?
I like the size, personally.

 

Turned out great, she's got some talent.

 

Little more work this weekend.

 

On this tool box it looks great because there is plenty of black. It is just a good habit to learn to leave good border all around. I can tell you this, it is a lot better than my first efforts fifty years ago.

 

There is no black at all? The box is a very dark blue.

This question is to you, and anyone who has good advice.

For my Socket and Wrenches drawers.
Should I abbreviate Metric as "MM Sockets, or M Sockets, Metric Sockets"
Should standard be "STD Wrenches, SAE Wrenches, or just Wrenches"?

I have a drawer with needle nose, slip jaw/channel locks, wire cutters, dykes. I figure I'll just label this drawer as "Pliers"

I'm also really considering popping off the CRAFTSMAN logo, but I'm real up in the air on that.

Advice?

 

Heyyyyyy I'll be traveling through Waco this weekend - may I drop off my tool box so she can get some more practice??? It looks great!!!

I've been wanting mine striped for a while now, tell her to keep up the good work!
