That's gold Washie!
Haha, checked my email and apparently I've ordered a couple of pre-shaped nuts from China for about $6 each. Could have sworn I bought blanks. Supposedly they're bone, and I hope they're not terrible. Thankfully I'm only out 12 bucks if I end up with the wrong thing. Don't drink and ebay.
In better news, last night I got my horrible printer working long enough to pop out a page of decals to test with, and tested a couple out on some scrap.

what a cool logo H, will there be enough room on the headstock for it ?
glad that Health and safety won't be on your case - tuner holes have adequate hearing protection still hahah
After I made the logo (after I remembered how to do vector graphics) I estimated the size I'd need and printed it out on paper in 5% size increments (so, 100%, 95%, 90%, etc) down to 70%, cut those out, and held them up to the template I used to cut out the headstock (made 3 of those in case I tore or lost them).
This is what I'll use - 80% of the size I estimated. It'll sit a little lower and to the left on the real thing, but it fits!

nice one H, I was worried your test logo looked too big but you have resized to fit, well done
It's the right size decal, I've just inadvertantly created a forced-perspective photo. The test piece is only about an inch across where the decal is, and is probably 8-10 inches closer to the lens than the neckl in the background (looks like it's leaning on the amp, but it's held in my hand).
