Can you post a pic of what you got? I'll be restoring a Trident soon, so I'm curious.

Quoted from Tom_in_NoVA:

I have purchased items from Jeff in the past, insert decals for a Diner to be specific. They did not line up as nicely as I would have liked, but they still look better than nothing at all. The way I look at it, something is better than nothing. And Jeff is the provider of something, where otherwise there would be nothing.

I had the same experience with the insert decals I bought for Space Station. The "SPACE" and "STATION" inserts are way too small; I'll add a pic to this post tomorrow. I made the mistake of thinking the new PPS set would be better - they aren't. They had exactly the same issue (and are probably also made by Jeff). I agree - they're much better than nothing. But they're way too expensive, given that half of them don't fit.

By the way, I will probably buy that apron decal when I get around to my own Trident project. Looks fine to me.

This looks great.

And here are some vinyl decals Jeff did for me about 10 years ago - they've aged really well.

So what happened here?

I understand if you're creating insert decals for dozens of games, there's not enough time to get it perfect. These would be fine for $20 - not so great at $50 though.
