Bob Hastings shows the use of a Olfa circle compass cutter to make paint mask in the Feb 2009 issue (is it me, or is it really still Dec 2008?) ... any way, it struck me as funny that Bob should have this how-to in the magazine, because I had just used the same tool to help create a Target stores logo design. It works great and sure beats trying to freehand a giant circle with your xacto blade.
I use Avery yellow paint mask film material.

Bob - if you read this, what did you mean in the magazine about having a "what was I thinking moment"? Painting white before red, maybe? Just wondering, because the Rising Sun car turned out great, IMO.
