    Stenciling

    If I got my jacket stenciled, would I need to let it dry before using it? and if so, for how long?

    The end of the stenciling process involves the heat transfer of the ink to the lame/jacket/knickers....it'll be ready to use by the time it cools off and they hand it back to you.
    Need fencing equipment? See me at H.O.M. Fencing Supply

    Going to your first tournament? Read "Choose yer weapon, Laddie (or: Dude, where's my foil?)"

    Depends on who does it/what method they use. If it's spray paint on a template, yeah. If it's a professional like Marx, no.

    Take it to any National event. The Marxes will usually have a booth there and can often take care of it while you wait.

    I had Marx do it through the mail, and it was very fast. I waited until a few weeks before nationals and it was still very quick. I would send it to him. It is also very well done.

    One of the nice things about Marx at National events is that they will prioritize their work according to when your event is. And they're very nice to deal with.
    The spirit is willing, but the fleche is weak.
