In response to Gino's post above: Because of auto correct, NO SHEEP WERE HARMED in the making of this post. JB

Just checking in to see how many of you have ever utilized a maker space. We've had access to our vocational center's machine shop for the past two years during their evening courses for apprentices. It's against school policy to make "salable" items at the center, but we do a lot of R&D...

Exactly! Schools, colleges, libraries, hospitals and churches are on our short list for such projects. See my thread just above this. JB

TLDR main article, but a lot of schools have athletic booster or alumni clubs that raise funds independently of tax dollars. We deal with a lot of organizations that have "friends" groups that do this very thing and they're usually fairly well-funded. A lot of animosity builds when something...

We only do engraved stone work. As noted above, Black Beauty will not work. You'll need to use Aluminum Oxide abrasive...60 to 100 grit, depending on your stencil material. AO is costly, so make sure you have a way to contain the abrasive so you can use it again. Doing a v-sunk (deep cut)...

Cricut has brought the Gilette (razor blade) business model to the 21st century. To the OP, the craft fair market is a bloody one at that. You're better off doing the stuff a Cricut can't touch. JB

That combination sounds interestingly dangerous... Google the word and you'll get a bunch of sources. JB

Ditto to some type of floating floor. The anti-vibration mounts are primarily to isolate a heavy vibrating machine so it doesn't walk across the floor. Used on a machine like a printer, I think it would still transmit vibration unless it is a very low durometer rubber. JB.

Dang it, that's what I was going to say. Must be old vinyl from 2000. JB

Just curious what software people are using for inventory management. I'd also like to track service / maintenance parts for our equipment as well. The most recent post on the topic was from 2015, and that didn't have much information. Thanks, JB

Yep...pad printing. Rotary pad printing is the ultimate way to go for your project. Do a google search for the subject and see if anybody near you comes up. See it here: JB

You Bet! Think of them as a work horse that poops dollar bills... JB

I like happy endings like that! JB

Makes me hungry just reading it! Fortunately we have an extremely authentic Mexican restaurant not too far. JB

From one JB to another, thanks for the translation! JB
