  1. dude!!! that is sweet.. anyway you can do like steps on how you do this.. it is awesome.. say pictures after different colors or something to show.. i know i have done this before with a helicopter canopy (i fly r/c electric helis) and i used to have a FROG waaaaaay back in the day that we painted inside out.. was a PITA.. cant wait to see more.. keep em coming


  2. the good ole 3 rings of death.. been there done that.. after my last one died i got tired of this.. i had my 360 since i won it from Mt.Dew before they were released!!!  it died!!!! :huh: ??? so this new one i got.. i did some research online so i took apart and soldered a fan header on the motherboard (there is a spot for it but microsoft didnt use it.. i just desoldered one from an old motherboard)  so the cooling fans would run at 12v instead of variable voltage depending on heat.. in the stock form, they don't come on full speed (12v) until its really too late.. while i had it open i went ahead and put some artic silver on the heatsinks.. and knock on wood.. been staying nice and cool. that is a nice sticker.. im a long time video gamer.. ever since my brothers got pong in the late 70s.. ever since then.. i have bought every system to date.. im a collector.. i still have them all.. thats where my username comes from.. gm2k8 = GameMaster and then of course 2k8=2008..

    also where is a good place to get oracle 631? i looked on fellers but i cant get prices.. i tried to call but it was a weekend so they are closed.. ;D i will try tomorrow


  5. well i finally won a laserpoint off ebay.. so i need to order some vinyl and then get ready to practice practice practice and i was hoping someone out there might have some designs that have a barnyard type theme.. the reason being is we are expecting our first baby boy here in late august and in fact i just put the crib together today.. our house looks like a barn and all the designs for the baby crib bumpers.. blankets.. mobile with barnyard scenes with animals.. cows.. pigs.. chickens.. horses.. so if you have anything that would looks great in a nursery.. let me know..  i was thinking of doing a barn.. with some animals.. sun.. etc..

    thanks in advance..

  6. thanks.. i will bookmark those pages and read them thoroughly.. i cannot wait.. we have a baby coming and i want to make some barn type scenes with the cutter to decorate the wall.. ;D  just put the crib together today..


  7. well finally ordered a laserpoint.. i was looking on ebay for vinyl to practice with and saw a lot of vinyl with the description "CALENDERED WHITE"  what does that mean?  ;D

    also.. are there any recommended ebay sellers that you guys use?

    I dont want a big supply just yet.. i want to learn before I really order a bunch of colors.. i was thinking stick with white so i can play around with some logos for my car windows to advertise my business.. any help greatly appreciated..

    already sent in orders for free samples at a few sites..


  8. thanks.. i really want the laserpoint i think.. but u would never believe the problems i have been having with my ISP.. i think my modem either died here at the house or something.. but of course i was winning an auction that ended in the evening day before yesterday.. and i came home to check and possibly bid up.. and my internet was down :)  and again last night.. :)  so i have to use internet at work to bid.. hopefully i can win one soon.. i have so many ideas i want to try just for my own business advertising alone.. ;D

    thanks for the pics.. i appreciate it..
