You can see how the stencils had to be cut apart. I number them so I know where they go after I got them all cut out.

I had really nice stencils to work with, but they still needed many hours of trimming to work around the mechanics of the smoker.

This shows the area under the shelf. To keep things consistant, I had to delete the word beer. You could only see it if you bent over and looked under the shelf, and the stencil was the reverse of the rest of the medalion.

Not feeling like the stencil was working out, I decided to lay out my own \"pop top\" with vinyl tape.

You can see over my shoulder taped to the cabinet is the rendering that my customer sent me. I have to refer to it constantly and make adjusments where the stencils don\'t mirror the art work.

The ends of the smoker have hardware and a small vent door that had to be trimmed around. This shot was taken when I was trying to figure out the best way to to get the look we were going for.

This is the end that will look like the top of a beer can.

This is a custom made smoker that a customer wanted me to stencil with the Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer logo.
