    Saddle up a horse and have a ride.
  2. Question Roll Label outsourcing for environmentally friendly

    Tell them whatever they want to hear and sell them what you have. Whether they buy stuff from Eccoweenies-R-Us or have it shipped from the holds of the Exon Valdez, it won't make an iota of difference to anything in any way.. None. Nada. Zip. Zero.
  3. What should I do on the shop car?

    What should I do on the shop car? Change the oil regularly.
  4. Suggestions How much should I pay an employee?

    How much an employee should be paid depends on how much additional revenue you will net from that employee's presence. However much that is you must pay less than that number. Very simple, there are no other considerations.
  5. Grey Help? Mutoh Valuejet 1304

    Gray is the hardest thing to print on a CMYK printer. The RIP, any RIP, interprets grays in CMYK, not just K. Unless the various gods that deal with this sort of thing are smiling, grays will tend to various tints. Usually green and/or magenta. You could invest in some intense profiling but even...
  6. Cutting down stickers

    The simplest way is this.. Here's 56 decals that can be cut out with 17 cuts. It requires a flat surface with a cutting mat and a sufficiently long straight edge. If you don't have a long straight edge hie yourself to the nearest drywall supply and get a 4', a 6', and if they have one, an 8'...
  7. Graphtec Not Cutting Clean Letters!

    Yet Again.. Remove the dust cover from the tool carriage and blow out all of the dust and crud that's accumulated there. Pay special attention to the blade holder up/down mechanism. It doesn't take much contamination to alter the cut quality. Also, make sure the little ball bearings in the...
  8. Minimum Charge

    But that's exactly what you mean, isn't it? Heaven forfend you should be honest when you have your convenient 'shop minimum' scapegoat to protect you from having to do so. Your policy? Does any organism in the galaxy save yourself and any employees you might have give two ounces of desiccated...
  9. Minimum Charge

    You don't have a minimum either, you have prices. On weekends I compete in various team penning and ranch sorting events. Some of the venues have this or that arbitrary rule and the reason given is always 'insurance requirements'. This is, like a shop minimum, is a convenient way out of just...
  10. Minimum Charge

    Well then if you have a minimum that ranges from $X to $Y then you don't have a minimum. Confused? Not hardly. Your rationalization is, however, mildly entertaining. Peter is Yet Another arrogant fool.
  11. Minimum Charge

    A minimum charge is a manifestation of arrogance. A warning to potential clients that you are so special and important that you must have a minimum charge to keep out the riff-raff. Get over yourselves.
  12. Looking for quick cheats for FC8600

    The Graphtec force setting can be a little off-putting if you're used to grams, ounces, or whatever. My FC-7000 [I assume it's the same on an FC-8000] the number means nothing. it's just an arbitrary number from 1 to 50. Worse, it's not linear. I.e. 20 is not twice as much as 10, it's a whole...
  13. What do I need to print on rtic stainless tumblers

    Dye sub works very well but you have to get the cups that are coated to be dye sub receptive.
  14. Vinyl Express Q100 need help please!

    Twaddle. That machine is fully capable of cutting text 1/4" and less. If it's cutting sloppy and jagged I'd inspect the file having an up close and personal look at the quality of the objects. Then I'd have a squint at the plotter settings, specifically the arc quality. Then I'd drop the tool...

  16. Should we ban...

    'Superior linguistics'? No, merely a vocabulary adequate to allow me to express my thoughts. You might want to look into that. Definition of 'Dictionary': A compendium of descriptions of word usage in vogue at the time of publishing. The operative word is 'description', not 'definition'. A...
  17. Should we ban...

    Goombah = Italian = Nationality and/or culture. Please describe how your apparently confused concept of 'race'** applies here. **There is only one race; human. The current concept of 'race', the one that is drawn like a six gun whenever someone has no argument, is utterly fallacious.
  18. Should we ban...

    By what stretch of tortured reasoning do you bring Trump, or anyone else who is not germane, into this conversation? One person's perfidious behavior does not justify another's. Try to stick to the subject at hand, as difficult for you as that might be,
  19. Should we ban...

    Kid, you demonstrate aptly one of the trademarks of the diseased liberal, and conservative as well, mind. That being then curious notion that anyone that might utter something that you find unpleasant or, worse, something with which you disagree, must me driven into the sea and forever silenced...
  20. Suggestions Liquid Laminate for Latex Printers

    Excellent choice. Marabu [nee Clear Shield] Classic [nee Original Formula] is far ahead of whatever's in second place It's certainly tough but doesn't have the abrasion resistance of a vinyl laminate. This might make a difference if you were sending your prints off into combat or something but...
