    Good deal. We did some patches for a startup motorcycle club and part of their logo was a guy holding a bottle of JD. When the patches were ready he paid for the patches and gave me a double-fifth of JD. Gotta love bikers.

  5. Question Eco-Sol empty cartridge recycling?

    Thanks. I saw Roland takes them but I have to ship at my cost. A number of years ago I saw someplace that paid for shipping and paid for the carts. Does OD or S require a purchase to turn them in or is it just an easy $20/month?

  8. Question UV flatbed recommendations?

    Let me paint a better picture if possible. We have a 30" VersaCamm and we have been printing on vinyl and applying to coro for quite a while.

    We don't get any call for it. Other than our government accounts, everyone is price sensitive. They won't pay more for green.
  14. Scary Thing about Ransomware

    It's all about Risk Management. Just look at our schools in California. They were not prepared for in home learning last year and they didn't make much progress over the summer.

    We are not moving to TX but from an outage standpoint if we do get a notice of a possible shut down we assess the conditions in our area and decide if we want to shut down equipment and unplug them.

  18. Graphix Gone on BBQ?

    Cleaning the BBQ stainless is a PITA after every use. Today I tried Graphix Gone to get rid of all the residual I couldn't otherwise clean and it worked great. Followed it up with isopropyl alcohol to clean it up. This is all exterior surfaces, no food cooking surfaces. Any downsides to this?
