    First Video I've made

    I just got a gopro camera setup because I wanted to start making videos. I had a trailer install yesterday and thought it would be the perfect opportunity to use it. It's nothing crazy. I'm a SUPER newbie and just starting off. Let me know what you think? https://youtu.be/I38Hl1U7Sb8

    First Video I've made

    I'm using RTape 4076-RLA. I spray it mostly out of habit when I use to apply wet with rapid-tack. It would take forever to dry and wetting the outside of the tape helped release it. Now, as you can see, I apply everything dry. since the tape is a high tack and it helps alittle.

    Yep. I want to start vlogging my car repairs also. My 1st project is replacing the transmission in the SRT8 300. I decided to trash itself a few weeks ago.
  6. I don't know what's going on but I have a order for Heather: Red, Blue, Green, pink, and purple. I've been looking at all 3 of my vendors and they either don't have a color in any sizes or they don't have certain size. Preferred vendor is Sanmar or S&S. Preferred brands are Port and company or anvil. Does anyone have a good lead on these heather shirts?

    How is this made? CNC Router?

    No way it's done on a laser. It's made with a CNC and a V-bit. there's no way a laser can create that much of a ramp on the letters.

    Hi Everyone!

    This is my personal opinion. You're starting off with WAY too much. For example why do you need 15" and 24" paint mask? Going down the list...... - Drop the cutting strips until you need them. Graphtec is a super nice machine and you won't be cutting into the strip if you leave the sensors on. - Just get the 24" roll of paint mask if you're really going to use it. It sounds like you're most interested in shirts. I'd stick with vinyl and shirt tell you learn the trade then dive into paint mask. - Drop the Poli-flex and just stick with the tried and true siser easyweed. - Drop the Orafol plotter sample pack, Oracal 631, and all the transfer tape you have in your cart. -I'd get a 24" roll of Oracal 751 in black and white, Few colors in 651, Rtape 4076-RLA transfer tape (I like 30" wide rolls). Learn on the basics: good vinyl, good paper transfer tape Those would be my suggestions. You'll get overwhelmed with all you've got going on. It might look easy but just trying to apply transfer tape can be hard for a beginner.

    Allways Sync is a kick ass program. You can schedule backups to ANYTHING. You can also backup in real time. It'll completely sync an drives or folders. I use it to sync everything business with my harddrive, dropbox, USB drive, and backup network drive.

    It's been OK. I really haven't been putting much effort into it. I've made about 18 sales on my 28 listings. The more I look at it the more I think these types of signs are really only going to sell during the Christmas holiday. I may pickup a sale from someone looking to give a birthday present but that's about it. It's a great platform but you really have to do your homework and you HAVE to have a niche. Etsy has grown too much for you to be selling the same things as everyone else. Yep....... what he said.

    What do you use?

    So far Vinyl Master has been the best auto trace software that I've used. It's just as good or better than Vector Magic and beats inkscape hands down.

  21. I gave up on inkjet printers because I never used them enough to keep the heads from clogging. I switched to this and LOVE it. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/canon-color-imageclass-mf632cdw-wireless-color-all-in-one-printer/5746102.p?skuId=5746102&ref=212&loc=1&extStoreId=1763&ds_rl=1266837&ref=212&loc=1&ds_rl=1266837&gclid=CjwKCAiAo8jgBRAVEiwAJUXKqAmLTMBs7HBBTDWrGQ8EREgrqahnKC2IFA9Qhp-ZtHuAWRs06Nw26hoCN9cQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds I never have to worry about clogged heads again. It can sit for months and still works great. Yea toner is more expensive but at my current rate it's going to be another few years before I need to buy toner.

    Need an idea for trailers

    I have a company that needs temporary signs for their trailers. Something along the lines of a car magnet but the problem is the of course the trailer is aluminium. Does anyone have any ideas what could work? I don't think coloplast signs and suction cups would last very long because they'll be driving around with them on. They just need something with their logo, phone #, and CRC #.
