The rest is just the rectangle tool and the text. I found that Arial was a good match, using both regular and bold, with some adjustments using the tracking tool. All done in Xara Designer Pro. This can be exported as a .pdf file so that it can be saved as a vector file for future use.
    I appreciate that it will take time to get up to speed with the program, but this is not a difficult job. (Click on the attached thumbnail to enlarge)

    I'm curious, if this was on an old shed, why have a pristine version?

    What use is this? I'm just being nosy!

    It's from an 8 year old shed that we just spend $1,500 restoring to like new condition. This is a label that is bolted on the inside of the shed and it just looks bad with the water stains and crap on it. Could be my OCD kicking in.

    OK, thanks!

    I guess if I'd spent that money, I might feel the same.
