Use a fine blade, no less than 60 tooth carbide tip, works good for other stuff too, we usually use 80 tooth carbide tip.

2023 was an incredibly great, possibly a record year. January isn't over yet, and we already have jobs stacked up months out. 2024 should be as good, or better if it keeps up at this pace. :toasting:

You can do it manually like Boudica does. We just use a panel saw, but you can use a skill saw (with correct blade), jig saw for shapes. Stomp shear works good, router, cnc if you have one... any will work Just use a sanding block, file, or de-bur tool to clean any rough or sharp edges. Shops...

Right on the money. This is the biggest thing.... Our vendors aren't grocery stores with fixed prices, you can negotiate on materials, especially the ones you use most often, and the price gets lower if they know they can count on you for a certain volume.

Never rely on just one vendor. Set up accounts with several. We have a couple of main vendors that we use for most orders, one for stuff like vinyls, lamps, sign parts, sheet stock, etc, we're on their delivery route, they deliver every Tuesday, the other is a about 200 miles from us, so we get...

Figured the blue would be way more intense, colored glass isn't made to make the world look blue like tints are. At least they picked it, and it's at ground level where its not super obvious.

Went through this before I retired. We ordered 10+ pallets of sintra at a clip, and had so many problems with marks, scuffs, and other contamination issues. We went through countless suppliers, and finally found one that supplied us with stuff so good that we could just unseal a pallet and it...

What? You didn't incorporate Gino's profile pic? Just shameful.... Looks great!!!

Ummmm... ;)

3/4 oz Creme de noyaux (it's a french liquor, like a amaretto on steroids), 3/4 oz white creme de cacao, 1.5oz heavy creme, shake with ice, strain, garnished with grated nutmeg. For the frozen one it's blended with vanilla ice cream, like a shake with a kick.

We come close here... Wisconsin does everything frozen, a favorite is the "frozen pink squirrel", a lot of people just call it a frozen squirrel. it's a pink squirrel blended with ice cream:toasting:

There are so many sources for both free and paid for vectors, and have used most of what others posted. Personally I search through and use what's out there more for inspiration and draw my own, rather than using something that will be the same as hundreds of others are using. Especially for a...

Had a hunch that's what it would be. Glad ya' got it figured out.

Well don't hog it all! Send a few degrees my way! I have the only office without a window. They know how easily I get distrac... Oh look, a squirrel!

I use the Oracal 5650RA all the time, also stock the 5600, and some 3M. Weeding can be painful & slow with any, but I've never experienced the stringy adhesive. Probably a bad roll or batch, maybe it was on the shelf too long and past it's prime.

You all need to learn to share dammit! We're not even getting above zero for the next few days, probably till the weekend. Next week they're calling for 20's & 30's with a cocktail of rain, snow, sleet, ice... All the fun stuff.

Got a cold, cold lesson yesterday morning. Took the dog out, temp was -3, wind chill -23. Expecting to be out for maybe 30 seconds tops (dog does his thing quick when it's cold), just threw a light jacket & slippers on, and the #*%#@ door locked behind me! Wife was sleeping yet and wears...

Another possible source if everything is set up properly is, how long is the USB cable? Is it a good cable, or an el-cheapo? The longer they are, the more data loss you get. It'll usually recognize the printer because that's just a handshake with little data, but when you send a lot of data it...

Oh Yay! Straight outa' china tint! At least it's flat glass... Be sure to update us how it went.

Close, but here she'd be sitting in a snow bank. And still need a lot of imagination to wonder what's under the snow suit :roflmao:
