Love the detail in this thread.
I'm a little jealous I don't have a tumbler for my parts, yours look terrific!
Hoping for a MH myself someday.

Have you learned nothing from MY mistakes? 
Man, that just stinks. I eye balled mine, but did have 1 reg mark. You are correct, it'll be a little off kilter. Mine was just a refurb, yours is all in.
My $0.02 - trace the red. Have Jeff send you a new red. Line up your trace on the new stencil. Mark the reg on trace and cab.
Good luck!
Quoted from Mathazar:I took the plunge and did the black and final paint tonight, and I'm 99% pleased with how the right side turned out (after I messed up the registration marks). It's oh so close, just a hair off (see arrows). The red border inbetween the two arrows is slightly bigger than it should be and if the black stencil was just a cm or two more toward the back, it would've been perfect (and that border by the single arrow would be lined up).
I asked the family to tell me if they saw anything wrong, and they didn't see it until I pointed it out. I can certainly live with it....time to move on! [quoted image][quoted image]
Looks fantastic.
For losing registration marks you did a fabulous job!
Quoted from Mathazar:Cut out new backbox shielding tonight. Old and busted originals are lined up against their new replacements. Tomorrow night I'll use the originals as templates for putting the needed holes in the new ones.[quoted image]
This is such a great addition to your project.
