Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 10-26-2017
PM me , if you want a sheet or 2 from the past pic posts. Decal man is ready to run a batch. I'll clear out a ton of space from my inbox.
You can contact me,Via -pm- then --for now-- I'll send my spot for a M. O.
Just need your forum handle, your actual address, And name, no jokey- ----
Then we-He- can ship some out.
This is temporary, DM will get up to speed asap. We are both so busy... This sound okay? How about some 1.5" black monster, with clear background?
Just to get this going? Some help would be nice-
He can run a batch this week- if the want is there. Lemmeeee know. pm me.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 10-27-2017
Okay, let's go from original pic- what you want, and sizes- also see how many will fit on a sheet.
Also, Mr draco's idea, and Shrambos - Troutguide--- just scroll back a few posts, that's what we can make as a small startup- THIS UPCOMING TUESDAY !!!!
I emptied my inbox. Pm me with exactly what , & how many of each decal you want. Sizes, 1/2"-6". Fit what you want upon a sheet- doesn't matter how many,,, they just have to fit that sheet size- if a few only more,,, then it goes to a full sheet size again= 2 sheets. Get creative, have fun.
First run is ---black monster only-clear background on the Best mtl. + Laminated. after I get your pm, I'll give you an address to ship a MO to. This is only temporary.
I will then hand the MO- once it arrives, & the order specs., and your mailing specs. to DM.. He will ship it to you then. 1-2 days to get these done and shipped.
Need a ship to address, from you. This will transfer over to DM when he's up and running, Ebay spot will have options for payments. Soon. Thanks to all for patience.
Then I'll be only on the side for new ideas . It's all good. Go enjoy your deer hunts , etc. I'll be here for us on this till DM is all set.
Ummm, you will want to clean, for an example- the both sides of a dust cover, with a residue free item,, by chemical,, then get a small amount of adhesion promoter and apply and let dry before applying decals. Inherent oils or just the Teflon type stuff is in & on it, --- Gotta squeaky clean it, or a peel away is soon to happen. Your call on super glue after cleaned.then apply
I'm getting 6-- 1/2" Red- decals for my 3 bbls., near the muzzle , one on each side. Plus 12- for my ammo boxes 1.5" ,,, plus a 6" plain white for my safe door. If someone makes it that far in- he'll know what he's up against by then....
So D. Davis contacted me today- this is the reason I'm blabbing about this. He;s in AK now. Probably not a ton of access to products uppair.
Do some research on products gang.
I use a ton of 3M items--- local MN. company, plus I had years of ideas-input-actual testing of a few of the product ideas that I presented to them.
My best was MY promotor idea for the double sided 3M adhesive tape , that attaches auto mldgs., and etc to vehicles. It will never ever fail. This may be the key to keeping Grrr decals on. More on Product Numbers soon.
I could send a packet along with decals. It's a few bucks per 1.5" squared packet, it's my best idea for this. We can sell it for cost plus 10%. with each order.
It will stick to at least 90% of items. More soon.
Just pm me
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 11-01-2017
DM, is bringing a sheet in on wed. of a ton of decals-40- upon it. all the beast in black, clear background. Many diff sizes. I'll post it up.
Ready to go , for now. Just pm me , I'll include a ship to spot. Then send a MO , for now- DM will take over asap. It's deer hunting startup this Sat. here.
Thinking $15.00 per sheet laminated, or what Mtl. wac mentioned. PLUS SHIPPING: the envelope, stamps will be included with shipping costs to the included to 48 states.
$5.00 for a package - rough guess. Busy as always. We can dial this in as an order arrives- DM can hit the usps, and do a few trials on states across USA. No biggie.
Be very specific upon sizes, and how many, and all color ideas, front , and backgrounds. Me- I like the carbon fiber BG look...or white, or clear.
Guessing about $20 bucks for a sheet then. Shipping prices for 2 sheets would be close to same as...
Need you to clarify the sizes you want and colors, other than the black. We Thought some white 9/16" beasts would be good for dust covers, so half black - or ? then rest white.
also included on each sheet could be as many small-3/8" tall --- 6.5 Grendel - decals , also good for the dust covers. Mostly in white, and just a few per sheet.
I'm the ship MO's address to, for now.
Crosshairs units are measured to the outer diam of the hairs, not the circle.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 11-01-2017
First 1 sheet order - to 3 lucky persons will be 50% off. Plus std. shipping rates. First 3 in my PM box gets the deal ---Go!
Need Full description on order ideas. This has been the challenge so far. I need more input on sizes per sheet is the main item. , whattya want?
Read back a few posts, those will be the initial offerings,, the units Mr Draco made up, and Troutguide, and the new tomorrow idea from DM.
Keeping it simple for the first run.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 11-01-2017
The lamination upon these decals is very thin, almost un noticed-- not like the decals upon car trunk lids from auto dealers. It's low key.

It worked!
Bottom will be sized for a dust cover on the AR.--9/16"
Next-1"
Next -2"
the 2 large ones are 4".
Some have you have requested a sheet. I need the sizes and amounts. I found out today, he can make up to a 24" decal.
He would prefer to run these at typing paper size-8 1/2" x 11"-- The envelopes are cheaper.
$15.00 for first sheet, $12.00 for any additional per sheet. Maybe a $1.00, extra for stampsper extra sheet. So shipped - $20.00 for 1 sheet,,, $33.00 for 2 sheets.
If you only want say,, 2-3" decals- price will be $6.00 shipped. Best deal is to squeeze in as many as you can in the 8x11 paper size.
How about a 6-7" in center- some 2+3 " and a couple 9/16" , couple wordings- for dust cover, or where ever- . Get creative. You decide ...
Probably $2.00 per envelope, plus 2 stamps? Maybe 3 stamps for 3 sheets. Pretty reasonable if compared to tourist trap store prices. , for decals.
We need to do a first shipment. Design a sheet then PM me , with sizes & amounts. We're ready to go as of tonight.
Ummm, for the 9/16" size for a dust cover---- And the ,( 6.5 Grendel decal)- black wont show up- pick white , or a lighter color- DM recommended white.
I'll call 6.5 Whelon. We'll get this rolling.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - Randy99CL - 11-02-2017
I'm new here so don't feel that I am "invested" enough to really have any say here but I have some ideas of what I'd like.
First, I'd like to see some with "6.5 Grendel" spelled out along the bottom of the circle, curved to match. Few people will know what the symbol means without that label, not that it matters.
I would like to put a smaller one on each side of my upper and a few on each magazine.
Then a couple bigger ones on my gun case and shooting box. Would look cool on my soundmuffs.
But we need a light color that would show up on black guns. I'd like Red but some would think it was a devil. White would show up but too plain. Silver would look classy. Yellow? Maybe yellow with red shadow? OD Green but lighter? Gray?
Or fluorescent Zombie Green would really be cool!
I would include more "6.5 Grendel" scripts in different sizes. Like one that would look good on the BCG (if you have a side-charger like me).
So I'd want 3-4 big ones maybe 4" in diameter for cases and boxes and car windows.
A half-dozen somewhere around an inch. Some scripts at 1/8", 1/4" and 1/2".
Maybe some of the logo in outline only, not filled in. Less conspicuous.
And all in a light color that will show up on black.
And can you clear coat them to protect and take off the shine?

Guys, pm me what you want.
Go to the private message area. If in doubt, ask for help. I'm so busy now.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - 65Whelen - 11-02-2017
Talked with Sneaky, he agreed.
We need to come up with three or four standard sheets with various sizes that the Horde can choose from. More to follow.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 11-02-2017
Thanks 6.5 W.
Still don't have an answer from anyone upon what they want.....................
I'm going hunting on Friday night, to my spot up north. Not back till Tuesday.. Gives all a long time to figure out what they want.
I'm packing gear on Thursday, food on Friday am- then a flu shot, then on the road.
I'll be back.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - Schrambo - 11-02-2017
Yo Sneaky, good luck with the hunt...
I IM'd you early this morning on this thread with an order... Let's chat next week...
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 11-08-2017
I'm back . Here's the current idea- updated. This is for functioning tests. Keep it simple this week I was asked to do by DM. Here we go,
My post # 81 says most of it. I will reiterate a bit.
Look back to Mr Dracos ideas- in his post, with pics. The main choice is the sheet with decals outlined in the red lines. That's option A.
Troutguide has his version upon helping out- it looks like 2 full sheets side by side. Split it down the middle. That's option B
Decal man printed the pink -on paper with 40 decals, it can be easily tweaked to whatever you want. That's option C
As an add on, If you want some 1/2" tiny decals for ejection port covers, and some tiny 6.5 Grendel for same- They -a few per order can be printed in white or silver or blaze orange only .
He said he's throw in a couple of each if wanted for a couple bucks more, Per order. Me- I'm getting 12 -- 1/2", for my 3 Grrr tubes, and covers. Blaze orange, and bright red.
This is option D., describe Exactly what you want.
Clear background, or camo, or , carbon fiber are the 3 choices for now. For all of the above.
Option E- send me all the details, down to the wire- if it fits on a sheet, it can be made.
$20.00 per first sheet shipped., $15.00 per second sheet in same package. The 1/2" small items ship free. This is all 48 CONUS. D. Davis gets a break- Alaska- he ordered 3 months ago.
I'll need a ship to address with a name etc., Please send color ideas, otherwise it'll be black on clear. I won't respond if all the details are not included.
Once I get an order- with exact amount colors, data, address, etc. I will then give you a ship to address for a Money Order, Or- a cashiers check- to here in MN.
I will then hand this to DM- he will crank out your order and direct ship it to you ASAP. He's pretty fast..
Okay, DM has a stock of laminated , so this first big run will be coated that way. It's quality stuff.
I'm helping out until he sets up a store, probably on here. Life gets busy during deer hunt season- DM actually hunted this year. I kept this as simple as I canI can't field questions on open forum upon this. PM me, with an order please, this should be straightforward for all ?
Some ideas are in the works for springtime. Thanks for your patience with us busy guys. S1
Option F just came back- The Grrr with the crosshairs on the outside- You can design what You want, and quantities, and sizes on a sheet.
And color combos. Pm only. Same prices. The ones I posted at the start- get creative. PM me.
No more questions answered on the open forum about this--- too busy. I won't respond. Sorry
Private messages only.

Do all of our esteemed forum members know how to use the private messaging setup here? I asked BFT to back me up tonight.
So many requests were placed, yet - not.
If this is the youth of our country- always check with parents firstly before posting on this forum.
PARENTS! EYE BALL YOUR CHILD MORE OFTEN !!!! Helo Parent your 1 off odd kiddo!
This is an 18 yr. old +only spot for placing orders- for anything Grendel here. This includes decals. Or any bullets, etc. Sorry gang, Lawyers back us up--- Keep an eye upon your JR.
We don't want any issues -down the road.
I get orders for all versions of magazine tweaks, bullets from the - imposible edge--
it never ends on my end. Yes, I am too open....
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 11-10-2017
I'm not really complaining about the under 18 issue, but due to the recent mass shootings- I don't want an issue to show up about Grr, and ? on here or in the news. Media likes to glorify the small stuff to make a BS story of things that don't matter.
It's about the whiners mostly, the units that complain- Example 1- Due you need to sell decals for an ar type rifle while many children lost their lives in a church, which was in fact attacked my a mentally deranged person than slipped thru the proverbial cracks of the code that WE call normal. And you guys want sticky decals? This did pop up... no jokey
Yes we do. We are not the health problem in the USA. Repair the mental health system.
BAN ANY Service member - that has issues from getting weapons ! WTF?! Its a Huge Duhhh.
Most of us here at camp Grrr are 99% just fine as team members. Sign in is scrutinized, by a many of the team.
We as a team effort have been awesome at -weeding out the odd units. And creating new items. Some of us have been Uber busy! Some of us needs us a vacation.
Camp Grrr is a very nice place to hang out. No anger issuses.
No hatred like Arf15-- I call it BARF AGAIN 1.5- SUCKS worse than an old vaccuuuuuummmm.
Just a venomous Shiite hole of dead people still voicing from their past lives . icck. Hmmmmm-
It's been a real trip lately on decal orders.. Some too young, some , IDK.... what the deuce is going on.
All is fine. Just a bump in the road. All is going forward as planned.
3 orders were placed at the get go... They got the 50% off. Schrambo, and a few others will be the first recipients of decal sheets.
Custom ordered as per every detail I may add! Nicey nice. Hang loose for a week, till the first order shows up on here.
Carbon fiber look.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 11-14-2017
Some more ideas are tried by DM.[ATTACH=CONFIG]10178[/ATTACH] This is option C. Click on pic- it gets bigger.
He made this from that pink paper idea- these are laminated, I was handed 2. 8x11.5 sheets. 1/2" to 3.5". decals.
Who wants em?
He is making a small run of a white beast on a black and or, carbon fiber look, background. Perfect for a black scope, or barrel- 1/2"-5/8" size. He said he would throw a few into each full sheet order.
Schrambo,,, tell me what ya want dude! Your 2 sheets can be printed tonight.
I'm getting a couple 1" in blaze orange for my hunting ammo only boxes.
Also, 4 -1/2" red beasts, with some small red to orange to yellow 1 1/2"" long flames -for the area behind the flash hider on the both sides of barrels.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]10182[/ATTACH]
This is a try at 2 more carbon fiber looks, 1 on lt. may look better with a white beast.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - sneaky one - 11-16-2017
Had a great hour long chat with D. Davis tonight. He and shrambo opted for the 2x 40 pack of 1 sheets black on clear, 1 sheet half =white beast on black background, other half white beast upon a carbon fiber background look- split down the middle ABAP. A few smallies can be custom ordered -in for free, -and a 1-2 of the orig 5--6'' units that I posted can be lobbed into the envelope. The crosshaired units. Lemmmee know
$35 for shrambo- in Mt.
D.D is already in- he sent a check to Hanka - for me to hand to DM in-August. He sent $40 for a 2 sheets to Alaska, cool. He's the nicest guy to chat with ----
Call him, so mellow nice guy cool.
I have a few of you to follow up with for the past month,,,,,, I'm doing my best to keep up,,,, I'm not a salesman, or a secretary at all......... Decal Man is very organized as compared to me.
Decal Machine is up and GTG. - D.Davis - 11-16-2017
Thanks Sneaky, I can't wait for the Decals. When the Decal man gets the Pay Pal site up and running anyone that has an interest in getting some decals can shop and design their own with the options there. Dave.
