Love the build. I think the printer you used was genius in terms of how it gives a super retro look to the label.
When I saw how you had to cut the edges I thought I would share that When printing my own custom labels or stickers, I use a local print shop that has a vinyl printer+cutter. Im not sure what media they would use to make this cool retro look, as I order the durable vinyl for my applications so far. (such as custom bottle labels for a friends birthday). No glue is needed and I have saved a fair amount of cash by using their printer instead of buying one.
Home versions of these printer+cutters start at around 300-400 bucks. Thanks for posting your build, I have found it very inspirational.
