Ground Control Pro labels

[octatonic]

I've made some labels for my GCP and thought I would make them available to anyone with a need for them.

I owe a debt of gratitude to Patrick Voes who did some labels for the Liquid Foot:

I did some modifications to his labels to make the switch and LED holes to line up.
I printed them up, laminated them and used a stanley knife to cut out the switch hole and a single hole punch for the led hole.
Double sided tape for now until I can get some magentic backing for them.
Went pretty well as you can see here:



Anyone else who wants to do the same can get the raw files here:

I have included tiff and jpg- the tiff's are 33mb each.
Be careful when printing them out.
My home printer was fine but when I went to do colour laser prints at Staples I had to shrink the IA button page by 5% and enlarge the patch button page by 5%.

At some stage I will sort out a page on my website for these but for now feel free to use them as you need to.

Any questions feel free to ask.

Cool idea...thanks for sharing.

A magnetic sheet with adhesive backing like they use for refrigerator magnets ought to replacing the double sided tape quite nicely.

Glad you dig it.

Yes I have ordered some magnetic backing- should be here in a few days.

I updated it again- this time with some better fonts and the text that the labels cover up.
Makes it a bit more useful.
Should be pretty easy for people to make their own now.

Oh, forgot to mention the source files are in GIMP (Mac OSX freeware) format.
