  3. hey everyone hoping you can give me a quick pointer

    "He is installing them as well", ok that makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE in the world, just make them however he wants, let him come and get them and after he installs them (wrong) and they blow out of the frame with a strong wind, because you had him SIGN a paper, and you are NOT responsible, he will...

    Plastic sheet bender Here is a video showing nice DIY plastic sheet bender and although it is being made for Acrylic plastic I have used mine for PVC plastic sheeting. If you don't want to use the Nichrome wire and transformer, use can purchase a standard plastic heat cable from Amazon...
  6. My machine is shocking me. literally..

    I'm getting the same shocks every time I touch the keyboard on my SP-540v (only happens this time of year), I don't know if it's me building up the charge as I walk over to the printer or if it's the printer that has built up the static charge. I have been worried that if it's me building up the...
  7. Shirts.. Tagless, private labeling?

    You can get a manual pad printer for $439, it would be a GREAT investment and also allow you to get into a new market of imprinting other items like pens and key fobs, etc. http://www.ebay.com/itm/251705419890?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649...
  8. Shirts.. Tagless, private labeling?

    Pad printing is the fastest and cheapest way to go for Tagless Care Labels. Yes, you need a different Cliche (plate) for each different label type. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7ulJUgrM2s
  9. Shirts.. Tagless, private labeling?

    Pat, you don't need a different pad, you can use the same silicone rubber pad in your pad printing machine, you only need a different cliche (plate) for each different artwork. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GahUxycTQto
  10. Removal of wall letters..............................

    Another idea is to put a long flat blade into a replicating saw (with no teeth), and let the saw do all the work starting at the top and letting the weight of the saw do the work as you move down the wall. The pre-made is a little pricy ($400+), however we all have a replicating saw, so all we...
  11. Removal of wall letters..............................

    Over the years I have used the classic PVC Cable Saw to remove letters and graphics glued to the wall. They are cheap ($6) and have a fine tooth like quality to the wire (more like a spiral) and padded handles at the ends. It does a good job and does not cut into the wall as you pull back and...
  12. Radiant Heat in Shop

    Yep, it depends on a lot of things, like three more winters after this paying $325 am month x 6 months of cold weather x 4 years = $7800 in heating bills, which is money spent and gone and nothing to show for it, and if you continue to stay there, this scenario keeps going, how much in ten...

  14. Radiant Heat in Shop

    Yes, sell all you can, but you can't control what you sell or how much, that decision is up to the customer and they are having HIGH heating bill this time of year also, which makes them cut back on purchases. It's better to take control of things you have FULL CONTROL over, like INSULATING...
  15. Radiant Heat in Shop

    Here is a good video showing a project lowering a very high ceiling down to a normal height that will not allow all your heat to linger way up there. Notice the laser line projected on the walls to guide the installation of the wall angle. The T-bars are suspended from wire coming down from the...
  16. Radiant Heat in Shop

    As mentioned several time already, the basic fact is HEAT raises and you have HIGH ceilings over your work area. The radiant heater is located up close to the ceiling, so the heat stay up there (as Gino said, nice and cozy for the bugs up there). Have you heard the phrase "pay me now or pay...

  18. New Shop Finally Ready To Show

    Nice job on your building, I built my 3200 s/f home here in Texas back in 1993, I did it part time (evenings and weekends) so it took me 2-1/2 years, I did all the framing (even the cut on-site hip roof that was a big challenge for me), plumbing, electrical, drywall, trim work etc., but the...
  19. Ag repair logo

    Yea, but even they didn't use the overpowering face of a bulldog, and maybe they should have....as it relates to the name of the tractor.
  20. How to fit a vinyl cover on a credit card

    Ok, let me get this straight. People are poor and have NO money, so they get Food Stamps, which today is in the form of a credit card (EBT). Yet, they have $9 to spend on a cover for the EBT to HIDE the fact that they are actually using an EBT card for purchases, because they want to be able...
