I’ve lettered a few small planes and helicopters. Some with 3M cast vinyl and some with 1 shot paint. Vinyl can be a bitch because they are riveted to hell… not like a box truck Lol.

Rivets or torx screws?

Out, I use RLA all the time and it will still tent with contour cut lettering.

I hate Avery because they screwed everyone years back. Long story and worth looking up if new to the trade… Yes , The smell is horrible. Idk what they changed but I avoid it unless I need a certain color.

. 118 blanks, Looks like a lot of cleaning and shit everywhere. I wouldn't mind a few or even a dozen but that crap is going to be everywhere in your shop. Reach out to your rep and tell them your not happy, I would... Anytime I get aluminum blanks it has a thin pink protective layer that...

Check with your local Janitorial Supply house. Couldn't find it anywhere when Covid came around but they had it. I buy it in a 5 Gallon container 99.9 % Medical Grade for about $80-90

Damn, That’s a lot of work. Hats off to him for loving metal shop but I’d rather buy one that engineered correctly. I have no use for either but if a blade tooth chipped off and got stuck in someone’s eye your f- d and can’t blame it on manufacturing defect.

Fellers mostly, If your paying catalog pricing your overpaying by quit a bit. Especially for vinyl, need to talk with your rep and get custom pricing.

No eye protection or gloves, must be safe and ECO friendly...

Highly recommend a dash cam especially since they’re so cheap. I bought one for like $25 and still works great for the last 4 years. Cam records if the vehicle is sitting in a parking lot and gets bumped. Also on a side note, a trailer hitch / ball if you have a pickup. If someone runs in to...

Great day with family, ugh pies are coming out soon…

https://givemehelp.com/ Mark Rugan offers Flexi training, been around forever but tiling isn't very hard.

VersaCamm print and a little raspberry preserves, Was curious how it would look. A little experiment for my daughters Halloween costume. Actually very easy.

Really?

I’d toss it or all of them if outdated more than a month or two. Not worth the trouble. Ink is cheap compared to the money we make off these machines.

Pounce pattern and hand lettered if it has to be paint. That would be quite a bit more money thought… Actually a lot more. I would use cut vinyl. If a snotty kids pulls of a letter just replace it. Service call charge of course…

Nice clean repair shop…
