So far, the only standard I’ve found about modeling sticker “parts” is that they
should be 0.25 LU off the surface of the piece they will be “stickered” to. What

they extend to the edge of the shield or perhaps 1 LU in from the edge?
Here’s a test of what I mean. The one on the left has the sticker to the edge of
the shield, the one on the right has the sticker “cut” all around by 1 LU.
Personally, I want to go with the “cut” style.

| (...) You make the sticker whatever size it actually is. If it's 40 LDU wide and extend to the edges then that's what you make. A sticker is just like any other part: it must be modelled as close to the real life part as possible (including size). (...) (19 years ago, 13-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
