Hello! I’m Ed Roth. No, not Ed “Bid Daddy Roth” but Ed Roth nonetheless! I wanted to briefly tell you about Stencil1. When I initially started Stencil1, I conceived it as a book of stencils. I designed 50 stencils and had them laser cut. I then designed a prototype book to shop around to publishing houses. It didn’t go exactly as I planned, most publishers just didn’t ever see a book like it since it had stencils in it so they passed. I decided to sell my designs individually and designed the website and just jumped in! So that’s how I started it.
