Looks to me like you might have a height constraint set. JB

Manpower, machinery, methods, materials, marketing...they're the five variables every business owner works with. Use them to your advantage. JB

You might have better chances of getting a greater return if you used it to buy something for the shop. JB

Awesome, I appreciate your help. Thank you, Jim

Just wondering if the dongle for Omega 5 Layout Station looks the same as a regular Gerber CS / CP dongle (purple) or is it different? Thanks, Jim

We've cut many thousands of 4" x 8" and 8" x 8" engraved brick stencils from Hartco 310 using a 20 year old Gerber GS15. It's been an absolutely awesome machine. It was only $600 on ebay five years ago and had hardly been used. Depending on the detail involved, you might want to consider...

For sure, and a bit morbid as well. JB

This is the first time...in a long time...where I haven't had the winter blues. I don't know if I can put my finger on just one thing, however. I've done a better job at watching what I eat, and I'm in the early stages of kicking the caffeine habit (Coke, Pepsi, and the luscious taste of...

'Tis true. There's been a big push called "Karakuri" at the plant where I'm working this winter. Essentially it's a campaign to eliminate as much of the electronic technology and mechanical power needed on the assembly lines, and replace it with simple hand operated / gravity operated...

Thanks for the intro to SV. It looks like a great program, and I'm surprised how closely I designed my magnets to SV with the job sequencing. I love all things technical, but strange as it seems, I'm making a conscious effort this year to "de-technify" some areas of our operation. I...

My Windows just updated earlier this week and I noticed that my OT fonts came back...so far, so good. JB

New Job Board Magnet After working with my initial design, I added a few improvements to better assist the work flow of the new job board. The new magnet features an additinal line to briefly describe the nature of the job and nine "bubbles" to check off as the job makes its way through the...

Thanks for the encouragement...I'll give it another stab. JB

Oy! I've been looking at purchasing the layout station specifically for this very purpose. Perhaps Tony from Gerber could enlighten us on this issue. JB

Well, I hate to say it...but I had to quit reading/listening to "The Goal". There was a bit to much melodrama for my tastes and the plot moves painfully slow. I've tried to get into other types of novels but I'm more of a technical / informational reader. But as far as Kaizen goes, I...

I had a hard time getting in to the book but I found it on CD and I find I have an easier time listening to it while I work. I have 30 years of industrial / manufacturing background, and it's sure sounding familiar. JB

After doing a lot of study about visual management, many of the experts are still leaning toward a manual board that provides "at-a-glance" information that is easily accessible (and updateable) by all. I guess the only way it would work electronically is if everybody were issued a device to...

I run the Intuos 3 and really like it for tracing and node editing, but not so much as a regular mouse. I'm a lefty and usually keep one hand on the mouse and the other (left) on the keyboard. JB
