  1. Health Care Exchange

    The ability to do something is not justification for doing it. Health care is a commodity, you can have as much of it as you can pay for. The amount you can have depends on how much you can afford. Just like any other commodity. You can choose to join a health care collective if you desire...
  2. Have you seen this driving down the road?

    It, no doubt, looks exactly like the inside of the cab of the semi tractor upon which it's built. Look closely at the front end and you'll see the hood of the tractor behind the extended front end. The oval indentation on the side of the hood would suggest Peterbuilt. The front wheels are behind...
  3. Cheaper version of the Sooper Edge Ruler

    Safety rulers are fine if, and only if, the surface upon which you use them is absolutely perfectly flat. These rulers are rigid and will not conform to even the tiniest of irregularities on the cutting surface. I have a couple of them and, for the most part, they remain hanging on the wall. I...
  4. need help figuring a price bracket for small sticker?

    Back before you were born,most likely.
  5. need help figuring a price bracket for small sticker?

    The problem with tiered pricing, or volume discounts [same thing, different name] is that if the discount is more than the unit price you end up in some ridiculous situations. I stopped into a donut shop may years ago and was informed that the price was $0.10 apiece and $1.00 a dozen. I asked...
  6. Cutter is pulling up vinyl - Help.

    No. If you have some problem or another, addressing it by diddling the offset is merely masking what is really wrong. If nudging the offset mitigates whatever you're attempting to correct, it's only a secondary, or perhaps tertiary, effect. You haven't fixed anything. The offset is the...
  7. Cutter is pulling up vinyl - Help.

    Shouldn't. The distance from the blade tip to the center of rotation should be the same regardless of the angle of the blade.
  8. Cutter is pulling up vinyl - Help.

    Why is it that the one thing that, once set for any particular flavor of blade, NEVER changes is usually the first thing people advise others to adjust? What is it about the concept of blade offset that seems to befuddle otherwise sensible people? Can there be that many people who are...
  9. What is legal?

    In looking over the spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors in your post I can see why it might be the case that similar linguistic trespasses might slip by you unnoticed. As my dear old dad was wont to say "Follow the copy even if it goes out the window." But always added "But first...
  10. How do I make my text follow this curve on this van hatch?

    Measure the height and width of the panel top and bottom and at each end as well as the middle.Tape a piece of paper to the entire panel. Entire meaning the full width. Trace the panel on the paper with a sharpie. Remove the paper and lay it flat on a table. Now you have the outline of a 3...
  11. What is legal?

    And what have you gained? You didn't get paid and you're not likely to ever be paid. You now possess a product that is unusable by anyone save the place for which it was originally fashioned. Is momentarily feeling better about the situation, perhaps feeling like some sort of tough guy, worth...
  12. Can I bypass production manager in flexisign 8.1

    Local desktop paraphernalia notwithstanding, Flexi outputs to Production Manager. Production Manager drives your tackle. Always. Every time. Even if you experienced the illusion of bypassing Production Manager, I'd give you excellent odds that it never happened.
  13. What is legal?

    Bad advice. Merely because you might have gotten away with it doesn't make it good advice. Your issue with the deadbeat is a civil matter. Repossessing a sign can be a criminal matter. When the local gendarmes arrive they don't care a pinch of ossified wombat snot who owes who what, that...
  14. Cutting blade on paper

    You can cut paper with a plotter but not for very long without ruining the blade. The blade on a vinyl cutter cuts with just the tip and paper is extremely abrasive. Cutting paper will wear the tip off the blade in short order. Moreover, there is no backing on poster paper so you'll be...
  15. Measuring items in a photo...

    Were the instructions, iterated multiple times in this thread, for scaling in Corel, Flexi, whatever using rectangles and objects of known size unclear? Perhaps not in your native language? Too vague? Concepts of 'rectangle' and 'masking' too complicated? Stickyard is right up there with the...
  16. is this a font or custom?

    Most likely an actual type face. If it were hand lettered the 'c' wouldn't have the left connecter, the 'e' would either be properly connected to the 'b' or not have a left connector at all, and the 's' would be properly connected to the 't'.
  17. Measuring items in a photo...

    So does unscrewing a light bulb by holding onto the bulb and turning the lamp. Do it exactly as Wayne K describes. No calculators, no long division, just the ability to draw a rectangle. It works in Corel and It also works in Flexi. This method is so handy that if I have to take a...
  18. Snark-Free Response Forum

    Every now and then some emotional child and/or graduate of Pollyanna U. drifts into these waters requesting or even demanding everyone make nice. Always to their standards of nice and usually featuring their very own versions of verbal rainbows, lollipops, and puppies. While these specimens...
  19. A wrap that makes people call 911

    A two dimensional image of what appears to be a female of the species that, upon inspection, seems to have her hands tied. From this you deduce horrific crime? Brutalization? Kidnap? Sexual assault? Mopery with intent to gawk? Get a grip. All of these things you think you see are only in your...
  20. A wrap that makes people call 911

    What line is that? some line there in your village? What, exactly, do you find wrong with this particular tailgate wrap? Be specific and objective. Any use of any form of the word 'offend' will negate your response. As for myself I think it's brilliant. I've tried for some years to dream...
