Parts:
4 – self taping screws about 1/2 inch long.
2 – 1 ^1/2 x 1/2 inch PVC fitting (shown top left)
2 – 1 ^1/2 inch PVC fitting (shown top)
1 – 1/2 inch PVC pipe 2 inches long (shown top right)
2 – 2 inch galvanized floor flange (shown bottom)
1 – 1/2 to 3/4 inch piece of wood

Optional:
None adhesive cabinet liner to top off the stand (recommended for nonslip)
Pipe cutters. Makes cutting PVC pipe a breeze. (shown top far right)

Cut out a piece of wood sized to fit your model. Mine was 9 x 16 but your RC model could be much smaller. Screw the galvanized floor flange in the middle of your piece of wood. NOTE: if your wood is much smaller then you could try getting a 1 inch flange instead of a 2 inch one. Then screw in the 1 ^1/2 x 1/2 inch PVC fitting into the floor flange. Tap in the 1 ^1/2 inch PVC fitting and then slide in the 2 inch PVC pipe.

If you have the cabinet liner you can glue it to the wood using Elmer glue or spay adhesive. That’s pretty much it you now have a strudy car stand that cost you less than $15 dollars in parts. If you wanted you could paint it or fix it up a little more.

This is my 1/6 scale FG baja sitting on the stand. This car weighs in about 30 lbs.

Down load a set of RCgawker stickers to stick on your rc model. This is set up to print to 2×4 label sheets.

For starters you will need to decide what sort of sticker you want to put on your RC model. In my case I wanted to put my web site logo on my RC car. You can use any graphics editing software such as Photoshop, Corel, Illustrator, Pixelmator (Mac OSX), even MS Word. As long as you can print to a color printer you should be good. You can “gang up” as many logo’s or images you want on a single sheet of paper, just be sure to leave enough room to cut them out.

In my case I used Adobe Illustrator to create my site logo and print my stickers. After you have settled on your art work the next thing you will need to do is get clear labels. Avery makes a clear label that works perfect for this. You can get them in full 8 1/2 X 11 sheets from Office Max or Staples or order them online. They come in Laser or Ink Jet printer style, make sure to get the correct one for the printer you are using.

Once you have printed out the artwork on the clear paper you will want to apply some clear package tape over them. The reason for this is twofold, first it provides a rich glossy shine to your stickers, secondly it protects the sticker from weather and scratches.

That’s pretty much it. Cut out your stickers and enjoy
