    I went to lowes last night and picked up the PVC to build the boat racks for the new rescue boat. I hope to have them done for the weekend..

    Yeah, when we were looking at it we're both dumb... all I had to do was swap sides with the foot rests, remember how they came out and went down? Well if you flip them over and swap sides with them, they now come out and angle up!! Looking at them, I think that's the way they're supose to go anyway..

    I need to check Joann Fabrics. They used to sell something called a Cricket. It only does 8 1/2 x 11 but that would do for what I need. Osprey check with your son.

    Two things about the Cricut. 1. It is discontinued. 2. It only does preprogrammed patterns, no input.

    From what I see/read the Cricut 'Explore' is due to be released next month AND, you can upload your own designs/images. No word on cost though.

    Hmmm....

    Rich, If you let us know what you are trying to accomplish, there may be other ways to get it done. For instance, I did my M&M's graphics with an inkjet and laminating film.

    And WHERE ARE THE PICS of this freshly painted beasty?

    Rich, ive used the inkjet method on several boats and it works great. Ive also been looking at vinyl cutters for about 6 mo now. I want one more for cutting tranfer paper for paint masking and plan to purchase one soon w some of the tax return.
