Kick down malfunctioned so machine just ran over the weekend until the pressure in the tank found a weak rusty spot and burst. Thing jumped up, threw pieces and rolled down the wall leaving orange strips every 3 or so feet as it rolled on the wall. Found wheels at other end of warehouse. It was...
I have thirty year old galvanized pans for work table tops. Magnets work on them and they are as good as 30 years ago. You go through x-acto blades but that's why there is 100 of them in a box.
Biggest cause of compressor disasters is from lack of maintenance, like never draining water from tank causing rust and weak spots. Never leave it on when no one is around. Had a kick down fail overnight on one in warehouse years ago. It ran until tank failure in middle of night. Heck of a mess...
Haven't used latex or uv personally but know those who have. If precision is key latex doesn't seem to be quite there and are power hogs from what I have seen. Dealing with hp can be a pita also. I just purchased a printer using eco sol inkset and I am impressed with how quick vinyl can be die...

And I'm hardly a new member. been here for years.
Hey Gino and OP, been using my safety speed cut 22 years now. Have had triple chip blade the whole time. Lotsa teeth, lol. On my second blade. When you let the tool do the work it cuts flawlessly and blades last a long time simply because it is held at perfect angle. Safety is a big +. Acrylic...
Is it possible you were running windows 10 in 32 bit just for the software? When I had my pc built with win seven I was told I could do that in 10 somehow for my older version of SL, 8.1 like you. As it is just a pc for work station I opted for probably the very last dell ever built with 7 lol...
