Fixture for applying decals

[Quiet Eric]

I don't remember where I saw this and it might have been here a long time ago, but thought I'd share anyway. This is a "Printed Circuit Board holder." It is excellent for holding a body to put decals on when when you really need an extra hand. Good for holding chassis too for assembly. Lots of adjustability and it rotates. They go for $10-$20 online.

The only problem I had with one of those was that it wasn't long enough for some bodies. I fabricated a longer beam to use between the uprights.

Me too:

I made a couple of “grippers” with foam pads on T-section aluminium that fit into the PCB “jaws”…

Best,

I also attached some foam to the jaws.

Do they make one big enough for a 1:1 '65 Galaxie?

I just bought one on sale from Micro Mark. Where did you guys get the longer aluminum bar to extend the jig?

If you can’t find the proper size bar you could split it at the middle and extend it somehow.
