  1. Spelling and grammar

    Uhhh – I’ll say this, out of respect for others; I try as hard as I can to write as clearly and concisely as I can. THAT means using proper spelling, punctuation and grammar. I don’t always succeed, but out of respect for YOU, I try. I think it makes people look more professional. I think it...
  2. Router Questions

    It all depends on the CNC guys CAM software. I can run stl, obj, dxf - pdf, ai, eps... just about anything, but I run it through my CAM software and it processes the file into a text file (tap file) which is just lines of code - direction, distance, acceleration, deceleration in each axis.
  3. Adhesive Remover

    Believe it or not, WD-40 will break a lot of adhesives as well.
  4. Printing large banner w/ Mutoh Valuejet

    Actually - the fence should be okay - I live in Oklahoma where we have 50-60 mile and hour winds regularly... and though we occasionally have privacy fences blown down - generally speaking it's not an issue. They make PVC fence that can withstand that amount of force. NOW, if you were...
  5. Polo Sublimation Printing?

    All of the professional golf shirts, almost all Under Armour type sportswear are 100% poly - I was actually looking for a 100% poly button down - the only place I found one was in the sportswear dept (fishing) at Academy. We do dye-sub and all of our (personal) sportswear is stuff that we...
  6. Intellectual Property and Copyright Theft In Our Industry.

    Oh, and if I were to take a screen shot -I'd also be violating MS's trademark because they have their logo as the start button... ... it could give you a royal headache (I hope Bayer doesn't have a trademark on the word headache)
  7. Intellectual Property and Copyright Theft In Our Industry.

    You're right, but - unless I'm mistaken - the picture of the van was taken and originally posted by the Original Perp. It wasn't taken by the Original Poster. It doesn't matter where the van was or anything else - the intellectual property is owned by the person who took the photo (or many cases...
  8. Outlook 2010 question

    Oh, I believe that somehow - someone not only installed Chrome onto your computer, but they probably set it as the default browser. I had this happen to me a while back, and I had to go to the Microsoft support site, download a quick little app that set everything back to normal. They changed...
  9. Intellectual Property and Copyright Theft In Our Industry.

    I know this thread is a bit old, but I’d like to point out a couple thing… first of all, yes – the OP (Original Perpetrator) did indeed commit a blatant copyright theft – BUT – in taking THAT guy’s picture of the wrap… the OP (Original Poster) also violated the Original Perp’s copyright by...
  10. Getting into Embroiding

    Oh, I know what you mean - which is why we're here!! I'll learn from you and hopefully in the long run, I can help someone else!!!
  11. Fun little project for my garage!

    Copyright infringment - nope - you're 100% okay there... ... Trademark infringment on the other hand, a completely different sort of animal and you don't have a leg to stand on. There is no such thing as 'fair use' in trademark disputes like there is with copyrights. Trademark can be...
  12. Getting into Embroiding

    Lots of good info - and I know what you're getting at - I came to Corel late - I started designing in CAD/CAM and running toolpaths from vectors, then got into Corel - same difference. You can't take a vector file and just throw toolpaths at it - you don't have to worry about end mills, ball...
  13. How do you manage an employee who knows more than you?

    ... to add another quick note - as a business person, you're job is to build standards and expectations. You build a brand... and that's true in the sign business, real estate, manufacturing, consulting... any business. When you look at it in those terms, the original question answers itself.
  14. How do you manage an employee who knows more than you?

    WOW - I'm only going to reply because I'm sure someone else will read to the end of this thread hoping to find some rational input - I know I was- though I was somewhat disapointed - I am still amused though by the chaps who think they can win one of these online pissing contests... That...
