  1. Consecutive Numbering Corel Draw

    Open up the x3 help file and look up "Using the Print merge wizard" It will walk you through the process. You can use Excel or Open Office Calc to auto generate the 001 to 500 list of numbers. Youtube has a few video clips on doing it also. wayne k guam usa

  5. Can I heat my shop with a kerosene heater?

    Tried and true: http://store.colemans.com/cart/military-yukon-m1950-space-heater-p-2393.html These kept the cold out of the field tents (sort of) during the winters in Hokkaido Japan. Seem to remember them being hard to get lit without a fireball removing your facial hair. wayne k guam usa
  6. Live & Learn...

    You can grab a copy of Acronis True Image from the Western digital site. It checks and if it finds at least one WD or Seagate drive will run and allow imaging or backup to any drive attached to the system, maybe the network but I am not sure. Think most of the other drive manufacturers have...
  7. Transfer tape residue problem

    I dunno, maybe test some "Goo Gone" adhesive remover on a small spot to see if cedar will react to it. Don't feel too bad, men have been plagued by problems with "soft wood" since the dawn of time....... wayne k guam usa
  8. Large custom check

    Check out a set of alcohol pens. We used to use them in the old days to mark military maps. They stay put and won't smudge or run when wet like dry erase and should come right off 210 lam with a alcohol wipe. At least I think it will. Sell the pens & clean-up pads as part of the check. wayne k...

    Neat OP. How many slices of toast will that thing do in one go? wayne k guam usa
  10. laser engraving through faux finish background on white acrylic backlit signs

    Looks good Doug, no idea on getting paint to hold up on acrylic outside. Question on the production. You are sending them out to be laser engraved after painting to expose the text? Could you do something like that with a super light pass on your CNC table? wayne k guam usa
  11. Tiles aren't matching up

    What materials are you using? If they are a quality cast vinyl you should be able to fix them up. If your second panel is short it should not be to hard to drive it into alignment with the first via a little controlled stretching. Best to use a 6" block with a sleeve or velcro edge to guide the...
  12. Aaarrrrrgggghhhh!!!!

    Man, you have to be very careful with the spelling when you type in "1st Annual" into Google to see how others use it.......
  13. Offered partnership, need advice.

    No advice from me, but good luck with the meeting. Any opportunities, unsolicited or not, in this economy sound positive to me. wayne k guam usa
  14. "Certified 1 Owner" car had more than 1. Now what?

    Have your guy replace the timing belt, while he has it apart have all the drive belts replaced too. My son's college beater is (was) a pretty well maintained 98 mirage. Last week the main drive belt (water pump & alternator) failed - shredded and wound up behind the crank pulley - forced back...

    Nothing says "not really Christmas" like a low budget Ben Hur movie makeover. wayne k guam usa
  16. CLIENT REFUNDED! How would you have handled this?

    You should have offered her a tour of your shop, when she got close to the laminator stuck her hand under the rollers and raised the heat assist until she agreed to pay the quoted price. wayne k guam usa
  17. Looking for advise on a big job

    Wax if the graphics end up being all the same size I think you will find that it will work out cheaper to have one of the big print houses like Merritt do the production work. I've found that at large enough quantities they can do the job cheaper than doing it in house. Even if the price lands...
  18. Jerk!

    Tell them the last you saw of your logo back up drive was right after the flood as it was being carried off by an odd looking group of albino frogs.... wayne k guam usa
  19. Thoughts?

    Johan, when Fred wakes up he is going to(u)can you if you keep re-posting this same message to multiple threads. Pointless replies (see all GAC05 posts for examples) in this thread are accepted but have to be somewhat related to the topic. wayne k guam usa
  20. A little something about you....................

    Due to that "upper-case Brush Script on an arc" incident in 05 I am in the Sign Writers Relocation Program and have to keep a low profile. wayne k guam usa
