Anyone know where to get stencils of various fonts? Similar to your typical "military" style print. Is that something Home Depot, Lowes, possibly Walmart would carry?

I got some, Ian.

I recommend using Meanguy's services, since he can probably make an entire stencil on one piece of cardstock.  Mine are individual letters.

Not practical for what I wanted to do, thus I didn't do that.

So you can read my mind, and you know what I want to do with it, and what I exactly need out of it? Apperantly so.
