    some old stuff

    Thanks...It wasn't as bad as I thought. The face was the hardest and made be cross eyed. But it didn't take that long. I was doing it during an up all night crack binge getting gifts ready on Christmas Eve and couldn't gauge time too well. *Or at least it felt like what I guess a crack binge would feel like.

    Vinyl roller made easy!

    You could probably just use the clamp to steady the roll...

    I figure it helps the tracking on big graphics.

    Just an idea

    I've done graffiti art with stencils like this. The only problem with the screen idea is that the paint will work on the adhesive, so you can loose some of your detail parts inside...I use card stock to cut stencils, works PDG!
  9. thanks. no i didn't celebrate with a keg. very observant. rather i have a "kegerator" or a fridge modified to dispense keg beer. i also do a little home brewing (cider). bb ha...When you said 2 new toys I saw the keg and was looking for the other...Then I realized you meant the H/P's! I don't know how you get work done with the kegerator staring you down all day
  10. Nice steal! I see you celebrated with a keg???

    my new website

    I like your characters...My suggestion would be to have a home page splash with one of them...Sort of a mascot or logo. Then put your links around it...Then the background might fit in better too..The home page just seems empty as is. But I know it is prelim...
  12. Looking for a couple plexi sheets...1/2" or 3/8" thick, 24"x36"...So far, ebay is the only place I found them that thick...Any suggestions to where to source them? I don't think Lowes or HD has them that thick? I searched and ppl mentioned Grimco, but their website is under construction in areas. Halp!

    acrylic / plexiglass sheets

    Thanks ppls...I went to Lowes and they had the size I needed, but only in 0.220". It was the best pricing I could find... Quarter inch is pretty damn thick, I am waiting to hear back from my client if that'll work. Oh and just a note, Lowes DOES NOT cut acrylic for you...Or at least thats what dude told me... Sloan has a great color selection! Too bad they don't have different sizes I will keep them in mind for future stuff!

    Working on a Logo...

    Simple (in terms of # of colors and print/cut ability), yet effective! Good work!

    acrylic / plexiglass sheets

    Thanks! Any others??? Also, I am on the beast coast, so anything closer would help shipping.
  17. I've been thinking about this. After reading MMM's thread, I figured I'd suggest it here. Another forum I am on (a car forum), we sell/trade a lot of parts and do part outs...What we started with is a seller feedback subforum. So when you buy something off someone, you start a thread of their name and post your experience with them (or add to a thread if there is already one). Also, sellers/members can start their own feedback topic and link to that thread in their signature! Then ppl can go from there... So for instance if I was selling vinyl by the yard and someone wanted to buy some off me they can go to the Sell/Trade section and then the seller feedback subforum and search for "Fbomb". Then they can read my feedback and add to it after the transaction. We've since gone to an ebay style seller rating/feedback system that is built into every user name...

    2 second shirt fold

    This is the old Asian fold...I've done this and used the shirt folding device (flip-n-fold), but in the end a basic fold is quickest for me...Or if I am printing a bunch of shirts, I just stack them according to size and fold them in half, in groups of 12... This one is my favorite!
  19. Hey Wayne PM me, with the details, if you want a screen print quote. Thanks!

    How would handle this

    Guys check you shipping address through paypal. I went through a buyer opening a paypal dispute on me, after I sent 2 shirts out to him...After all was said and done, paypal pulled up his old address (or something like that). So the shirts were sent to his old house. Everything was resolved there after... Just a CYA suggestion...Best of luck! That really sucks...I know when I sell something I ALWAYS stay in contact with the buyer. Even if there are problems, I let them know.
  21. I mainly use 651 (besides 631) b/c most of my work is decals, plus banners & signage for indoor apps or I explain the life expectancy of 651 if I do an outdoor job. Most customers just go for what is cheaper anyway. I don't really do any auto body stuff, so 751 hasn't really come into the picture. Anyway, my question is how do you price 651 vs 751? I've been doing well with 651 pricing, but wonder how you adjust accordingly for 751? Since I may have to go that route soon... What I was going to do is price as 651, then figure my gross profit...Then add that to the 751 costs. Seems fair enough....BUT, do you guys go for more (or less) profit on 751 since it is cast??? Thanks!

    orcal 651 on shirts

    Before I had my heatpress, I used 651 on shirts...It was for our Halloween costume (Jabbawokkeez). I placed it on the shirts, put a piece of paper over it and ironed them onto the shirts. They took a beating the whole night (breakdancing, doing the worm, etc) and held up. But they wouldn't make it through the wash...
