That's the plan! I will also take pics of making it. It might seem simple to do, but I might as well take pictures and you never know, it help someone else out.

I decided a while ago that if something is worth researching it should also be documented, and a forum is the perfect place to do it. So that's why I try to get the most info I can, and also update it when/if something changes. I love the internet and I have learned so much from it, that the least I can do is contribute back where I can!

That's what I was thinking would happen based off the graph above, but it will be interesting to see in real life the differences. I will try to get some audio of it as well, but we shall see how that goes :?

and I think we got a good res pic of the stickers I could print them on vinyl and have my cutter cut them out. IT would be hard to match the exact texture but I could make them in any color then both writting and vinyl
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.
