Ariel W/NG census numbers low-tack-stencils now available from axholmesigns

Five years ago I’ve made a CAD drawing of the typical Royal Enfield style census numbers, so that Axholme could produce them as low tack stencils. (https://hmvf.co.uk/topic/41549-royal-enfield-census-numbers-low-tack-stencils-now-available-from-axholmesigns/). Since then I’ve seen many Royal Enfields with census numbers in the correct style, mission accomplished… 😊

But a couple of weeks ago I was talking to an Ariel W/NG owner who asked me if I could do the same thing with the typical Ariel stencil font (not to be confused with ARIAL.TTF, and also not to be confused with STENCIL.FNT which are both post war American fonts). So that’s exactly what I did. In the attached pictures you can see some war time examples, and a screenshot of all the numbers. Axholme sells them in 1" high or 1 1/4. In my opinion they should be 1”, about the same height as the Ariel logo just below the census number. (https://www.axholmesigns.co.uk/motor-bike).

Hope these stencils will be useful!

Bloody well done Jan and very timely! I originally and erroneously fitted rubber knee grips to mine and after removing them,  they've left a mark in the paint. The bike is next on the bench to fit the original rear chainguard which came from you.....Which needs top coat paint, and I'm planning to respray the tank at the same time. 👍 Ron
