This has probably been suggested before, however, I will pass along a tip hoping someone finds it interesting or useful. I recently purchased a Cricut Explore. This is one of several types of rather inexpensive cutting machines used, I think, mostly by people doing crafts and scrap booking. It seemed to me like it would be useful for cutting accurate masks, decals or stencils. I have found this to be true. Here is an example of some wheel masks I created yesterday for the Wingnut Roland DV1a version D wheels which have a concentric black circle inside a white rim wheel - I can't cut a nice mask circle by hand. Many other applications for this machine come to mind - it can cut thin plastic, vinyl and heavier materials. The circles in this example were cut from a layer of masking tape over a dura-lar clear film. Similarly roundrel stencils could be created - the colors of the circles are irrelevant, its the solid black lines which indicate cut lines.
