- People making layered paint stencils by hand
- Worth noticing
- Colors that need bridges can get a second sheet, so the finished stencil can cover the bridge gaps.
Field notes
The described workflow separates an image into 2–10 paint colors, with a live preview as layers are switched off or merged. For enclosed cutouts, the tool adds bridges and may provide a second sheet in that color; registration crosses and a numbered proof sheet help guide the painting sequence. The page also describes actual-size printing, tiled pages for large designs, and SVG downloads.
