    app tape

    Im using 651 and 751 along with greenstar for some stuff. I was looking at using the greenstar layflat for every thing. what do you all think or what would be a good tape to use on all of it.
  2. My family just had to put down are 9 1/2 doberman and I am building a box for her ashes. She has been around us like one of the family sleeping in are bed at night sitting on the couch watching tv and making us all smile in many different ways. I am going to get some nice exotic wood and am wondering if some one has a 3d engraver that could do a picture and a name on a board I send you. I will pay for every thing. I can scan the picture and tell you how we want it dropped and the font for the name. If any one can help that would be great. Thanks Greg Havens

    weeding light

    I have tried different watt lights soft white and a clear 120w light and still having a hard time seeing the cut lines. Is there a light or color to get that will help find the lines better. I even tried my light table and it just shows the backing paper. Thanks

    Racing go kart bodie application

    I have a couple of guys that want new graphics for the racing karts. I was going to use Oracal 651 but I want to make sure it will stick before i say yes to them. i ran across the 3M tape primer 94 can that be used with other products or just 3M.. The bodies are one of the 3 polyethylene, polypropylene, or ABS plastic. What are your comments on this I can switch to 3M or Avery if it will work better but didnt really want to dish out that money for just 2 bodies. Thanks in advance Greg

    Fed Ex dropped the ball

    I was waiting yesterday for my roll of vinyl to show up that was on the truck for delivery. 6pm came around and still no package. I called and was told it was dropped off at a different address. How do you drop something off at a house number that was 25 and mine is 17 and a different road all together. After 3 or 4 phone calls thay finley gave me the address it was droped at and loveley bad part of town for any one at night. I tried to go get it and no one home. Fed Ex knew at noon it was dropped wrong and didnt call me or try to get it taken care of. I have a install at 8 am today i need that for and now i have to call the client and tell him i cant do it. I am so pissed its not even funny. Any one else out there have problems with fedex.

    Fed Ex dropped the ball

    That is what i told the mang. today. I expressed that when it said on truck for delivery and the weather was good I should of got it and not had to deal with all the B.S. I agree with giving a gap for time but it said on truck for delivery. Once it said that I called the cust. and said I would be there in the morning. Im still dealing with fedex sence the driver is a contract driver and owns the route. Whats funny is the mang. can yell at him but thats it. Sence he F**k** up he can just say o well and still have a job in the morning but im out of a job that paid well. I got call in to the cust to see if he got it done all ready and he hasnt got back to me. Im trying to get fedex to pay for the job sence the driver left it less than 1/2 mile from my house and he drops stuff here all the time so he knows me and my wifes name and Company name. Well see what happens once I hear back from the mang. today.

    Fed Ex dropped the ball

    Finley got the package no knock at door saying sorry just ran down the road dropped it on the steps and ran back up to his truck. I guess he wasnt enough of a man that he couldnt say sorry I messed up. I lost the job becouse he needed it done now. Now that lost me 400 bucks that was a easy install and i have all the other vinyl cut and ready. So im out a roll of 751 and he will tell others that i dropped the ball. Word of mouth is great if every thing works out but bad in other times. I need a drink and its not even noon!
