  • Anybody working over the festive period?

    Don’t know about anybody else, but I’m working this afternoon and tomorrow.

    We’re ‘signing’ a tropical fish shop on Monday and have to get all the rigid signs ready by then.

    So, here’s the question – anybody working today/tomorrow or Monday/Tuesday?

    im in on tuesday, wed, thurs, i will go in tommorrow for 10-15 minutes on sunday though.
    reason for this is… i have a grenadeir full solvent machine. and as many will know that these machines, if left idle from just before christmas, right thru till new year, run the risk of clogging the pipes, as they gel….
    the manufacturers recommend a complete flush at the end of the year (just the once) this costs about £200 in wasted ink and flush fluid.
    the way around this is, just treat it like an end of week maintenance clean! only takes a few minutes, then run a test print for a couple of mins, the whole process, like i say will take only ten minutes and costs about £2…. got to be better than £200 😉
    anyway, from tuesday to thursday its business as usual… 😉

    Sorry Robert but i`m gonna phone Pat at Reigart and tell him we have his 3 vans done and are ready for lettering 😉

    I`ve got 2 trucks to letter on Wednesday also so i don`t see why we hard grafters have to be slaving away while you part-timers get 3 long lies in a row 😉

    Just Kidding, The vans probably won`t be ready till next week 🙂
