I managed to chew my way through a half dozen pieces of oil board while learning how to work with this Diagraph to replicate the existing wartime stencils on all the 52-Set items. Once you have it figured out, the work actually flows quite smoothly. I will assemble and post my working notes shortly, but first wanted to show the results for the three boxes/cases in the 52-Set Kits. I have photographs of two of the boxes/cases to compare to but only a ghost image of the original stencil under newer paint layers on the Case, Operating for the Remote Receiver which did not want to photograph well at all.

There is just enough curl in the oil boards they do not lay completely flat, so I ended up having to hold them up in the air near a white wall to get decent images of them. Hopefully I can get the last three stencils cut this evening.
