@Oaktavia, that's awesome, I'll see if I can find it.
If only it made sense to ship a piece of cardboard overseas . I'll see if I can find someone local to punch me a card so I can get to work.

@corralitos I used just a generic stencil to put my name on my MF Tripper bag, worked great

@Oaktavia I was scrolling the 634 XHS thread and I think I saw this, is it also signed by Haraki? Super cool.

[Oaktavia]

@Jord yes, and Giles as well. It is a pair of 888SUHR

@Oaktavia @Anesthetist did you bother with a fabric paint (or just used what was on hand)?

@corralitos we used Texpens in the Navy.

Brilliant, thank you, @goosehd. Just found this forum that posts the exact same: https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/217761-how-to-use-brass-stencils-on-clothing/

I used spray paint.

@corralitos I just used a permanent sharpie and went over it a few times. If you’re looking for texture I’m sure there are ways to do it.

My impressions from web searching between meetings (and taking advice here) is that sharpies/texpens provide the more 'done in the field' type look and then various paints and application techniques can get you more of a 'screen printed' look.

Haven't landed on a personal preference yet. I think I like the look of the pens but really got to practice before approaching anything of value.
