Not that a ringmod is really interesting, but I played with Bel Decal water
transfer decals this time. http://www.beldecal.com/

I guess I'm happy with the result.  The decals are "thicker" then ones you
get with models so there is a noticable lip.  I took some pictures, yeah, I
got dust in the friggen clear coat and my labels arnt straight.  Alignment
will be a problem, I have some ideas on that.

Anyway, if you're interested in seeing how the labeling did :
http://www.themusic.net/ringmod/

Thats two coats of yellow spray, heatlamped, then the water decals put on,
more heatlamp to cook them a bit, then two coats of clear.  You can see on
ringmod3, the lip is quite clear on "1 IN".

Tolerable, I'll probably continue to use them esp since I have 30 sheets of
the stuff.  

Note there are no pictures of the board.  Its perf board with surplus cheap
coax running to the jacks.  Not pretty, but it works...
