  1. I feel like I get electrocuted everytime i run composite aluminum through laminator

    I had 3 more sheets to laminate this morning and tried using the blue rubber disposable gloves. As uncomfortable as it is to wear them, it worked and I never got a zap once. I did notice on one panel when I took out my Olfa to trim an edge, the biggest blue spark jump out through the material...
  2. I feel like I get electrocuted everytime i run composite aluminum through laminator

    On top of that, many times while laminating or even taking sheeted laminates off the table behind the laminator, you can hear these snapping sounds emanating from the table itself. Scary back there I tell ya!!! Maybe a pair of big rubber gloves would stop that awful feeling. Some days it...
  3. what do you think of this method to cut aluminum composite

    What I really like using this method over the saw is that you don't get all those mouse turd black crap everywhere in the shop
  4. what do you think of this method to cut aluminum composite

    Ever since seeing that video, that is now how I do it. Some aluminums are thicker and may require several passes with the knife. Also you have to be careful as sometimes the bent edge can turn up a bit looking a little ugly. I solved that problem by finding one of those little 4" rollers...
  5. What is the goofiest thing a customer has said to/requested of you?

  6. I feel like I get electrocuted everytime i run composite aluminum through laminator

    I feel like waterboarding possibly would be a nicer feel than the electrocution I seem to get whenever I run Composite aluminum through the laminator. Not just a shock, but almost like a pin ***** mixed with a shock is being inserted into my hand. It has to be one of the most annoying...

  8. why would a city spec gatorboard for simplistic info signs

    I have a client who sent me a spec from the city, which is probably so far out of date...in any case they are 18 x 24 inch signs that get nailed to areas of construction explaining something related to not storing hazardous materials near the trees. I have done these signs many times over...
  9. Can I sell these legally?

    As far as I am concerned it is just type, so I would do it, besides, that car has to be 15 years old and you probably couldn't buy it from a dealership anyhow. Take me away in handcuffs, fine with me
  10. How Much would you charge???

    someone quick... get a doctor to Gino's place
  11. Graphtec not finishing cuts

    On my Graphtec I can open the blade holder up and grease the bearings inside. It could be that it is not turning 100%... (white grease)
  12. Graphtec not finishing cuts

    How did you remove the adhesive? I have found the best way is to roll your thumb....sure it will go raw and be sore for a few hours, but it works better than any other tool I have tried.
  13. Throwback Thursday: post your first set of wheels.

    Ford Mercury Comet GT - dark metallic brown with Gold striping / radial t/a's and Hijackers. The car was 2 years old when I got it and the rust was incredible. 250 1 barrel 3 speed tranny. This pic is not mine but close. What a piece of ^&%$!!

  15. anyone here have a Samsung galaxy 3 Tab?

    Volume was on full and I monkeyed with the jack several times....having said that, there is a cover on the unit, but the headphones worked fine.....so I don't feel that was the issue...the speakers are plugged in so they get power...just odd.
  16. anyone here have a Samsung galaxy 3 Tab?

    at least I am not alone except the sound I get would be maybe a whisper over a shout...not good for listening to music.
  17. Horizontal banner stand?

    www.theexhibitorshandbook.com look through this.... This is the online catalogue of the Canadian version of Orbus. I would think whatever is in here will be available through them. This is a great link to send to customers too. They will find things in there you never knew about lol

  19. anyone here have a Samsung galaxy 3 Tab?

    I purchased one of these over an Ipad mainly because I liked the idea that I could insert a micro s chip into the device increasing it's storage capacity. So far so good. Anyways I am an I Tunes user for music and I have an Iphone and love listening to music at work. I have a set of speakers...
