  1. Question about heat presses

    Why? Why do you plan for failure? When I have some piece of equipment or another I plan on it working. It it fails to work I deal with it, but I never waste time planning for failure. How many heat presses have you been around? I'm at the end of my 7th decade on the planet, have been in and...
  2. how long do you guarantee your wraps????

    Does how much someone might pay decrease the possibility of various violences that are completely out of my control being inflicted on my product? If the truth be known I'd rather be beaten with chains than have much of anything to do with a wrap. But then, if your powers of comprehension are...
  3. Question about heat presses

    At a 10:1 price ratio, assuming fitness of merchantability, is there any question? A heat press is a heating element, a thermostat, a hinge, and a couple of pieces that come together. It's not rocket surgery. The basic technology is so simple and so old that even in Hunan province, they can...
  4. This is a crazy way to make a living!

    I=E/R where I=current drawn in amperes, E is EMF in volts, and R is resistance in ohms. On a 12V battery I=12volts/20,000ohms or .0006 amps, which isn't even a tickle. Basic arithmetic.
  5. This is a crazy way to make a living!

    I=E/R Having 2Kamps available does not mean that you'll be drawing 2Kamps should you fetch up into the wires. Typical resistance of a human body is somewhere around 20Kohms to 50Kohms. If you threw yourself onto a conductor carrying 650V you'd draw about 32mA or so. Probably kill you...
  6. how long do you guarantee your wraps????

    I do quality work, on budget, and on time. I give you a sign, you give me money, end of transaction. Service is what you get from a waiter.
  7. how long do you guarantee your wraps????

    Anything on a vehicle gets my 5/50 guarantee. 5 minutes or 50mph, whichever occurs first. I'm happy to tell anyone how long something should last but neither I nor anyone else on the planet can tell them how long it will last.
  8. How to tell a customer i am not charging them for a job

    Exactly so. Just do it. Never, ever, explain yourself unless circumstances demand you do so. This is not one of those circumstances. Smarmy 'blessings from my gods' declarations, hugs, and commiseration of any kind are not only not needed, they are detrimental. The object is to send...
  9. Don't Disrespect Me!

    Respect is earned not issued. When you enter my world you start out with none. What level of respect you earn depends entirely on how you act, not who you are, not for apparently being human, not anything except what you do and how you do it. How you act includes how you work your mouth and...
  10. waste ink from my printer?

    You can bottle it up and send it off with a platoon of beings in hazmat suits or you can pour it out on the ground. The effect on the course of history will be exactly the same either way. None whatsoever.
  11. Just a light humor political joke.............

    535 to be precise.
  12. Right and wrong

    Did you handle this right? No.You put up vinyl on a window, you get paid. If the owner and operator of the window should decide that it's not longer satisfied with the work, that's not your problem. So you're the new guy on the block, that doesn't mean that you have to bend over and spread...
  13. Best fasteners for mounting alumacore

    Go with the Nudo poly metal if you can. If all you have available is Alumacore or some other product with a corrugated core it won't be the end of the world. It's not that crap gets into the flutes, if it does so what? It's that it's trickier to screw to anything without crushing or at east...
  14. PayPal WARNING

    Yeah, that's why they folded their position. Know the difference between marginal and subjective issues usually manifested as 'they said...we said' and refusal, not failure but refusal, to comply with a valid and perfectly clear request. In the former the side with the most resources...
  15. PayPal WARNING

    What I think I am is someone who knows the difference between 'your' and 'you're' and understands where to use which. The exact circumstances were that they wanted me to send them an email verifying something. Since I stopped listening after the part about sending them an email, that was not...
  16. PayPal WARNING

    Exactly so. In my brief experience with PayPal it became abundantly clear that they're set up for a very narrow spectrum of normal and they are utterly incapable of handling exceptions to their definition of normal. In my mercifully short experience with them, the exact details of which are...
  17. Converting a .VE file?

    Flexi will open a .VE file as if it were a .FS file. Just open it.
  18. e-mails from pay pal a scam?

    You ever been shot at bucko? You really shouldn't attempt to insult someone who's experience, resources, and capabilities are unknown to you. I say 'attempt' because if the above is the best that your apparently feeble mental tackle can muster you make taunts hurled by elementary school...
  19. e-mails from pay pal a scam?

    Here's the thing... Any solicitation for damn near anything via email or via phone is more likely than not a scam. If you always treat it that way you'll never get hosed. On those exceedingly rare instances where it may be legitimate, the interested parties can contact you in person with...
