Little update, so you guys know the status  ;)

Yes Andre, i remember your 2600 sticker, i have the tool in the car and can pass next week and drop that, and pickup that decal

i now have all orders in my file, and i need to do some re-arrangement.

I expect this to be done and taken to the printers this month, so if anybody wants in on this run, let me know before lets say 25 November.

Then i can wrap up the files and send them over to the printers, and take it from there.

Thanks for now to everybody.

The run has been printed, i just picked it up at the printers.

However, there was a small issue, one of the corners of the alu bended during printing. (probably the heat of the UV curing lamp)

No biggie though, they offered me a reprint of that, for which i will deliver the material next Friday.

Ofcourse everybody's order will be delivered in perfect condition as you guys may expect/are used to from me.

Crappy cellphone pic, don't be fooled by the picture, it looks very very sharp IRL.



The damage on the corners:



It was inevitable because i changed the "free border" of 3 cm to 2 cm and normally they paste the sheet down with painters tape to the belt.

The 2 cm border makes the "taping operation" more difficult as there is less space to tape, so we relied on the vacuum table, but the material is aluminium and is much more temperature sensitive than paper / cardboard / vinyl, so one of the corners bended and pressed against the print head  :-\

It was a gamble, and i learned again something for the future...  ::)

Anyway, a reprint will be done for the damaged decals.

Delivering quality is all that matters IYAM.

For those of you who are interested in the printing process, here an old video i shot when i was at the printers for my first run:




Now its time for the worst part...  cutting every decal....   8)

During the finishing up of the last run, i am also preparing the next, i have a question, is there anybody that can tell me the missing text on this decal ?

Its on the back of a frogger according to the person who asked me to repro this.

Any help is appriciated !

Thanks

I have unscrambled this so far:

Notice
Outside interference such as s....c (1.static ?)
..urge (2.surge ?) or line voltage variation ca...s (3.causes ?)
... (4.the ?) monitor screen to scramble, ..- (5.re- ?)
...ing (6.jecting ?) a coin instantly recycles .... (7.??)
...re (8.??) system. this feature saves m... (9.??)
..erwise (10.otherwise ?) required service calls.

I'm with you on 1, 2, 3, 4, 10

8: entire? But why should rejecting a coin recycle the game??
9: many?

Good guess Nic, it also makes more sence then ..

Lets see where we stand:

                  Notice
Outside interference such as static
surge or line voltage variation causes
the monitor screen to scramble, in-
serting a coin instantly recycles en-
tire system. this feature saves many
otherwise required service calls.

Sounds legit to me  8) ::)

Many thanks guys !

9: many

Diese Funktions erspart viele ansonsten notwendige Service-Anrufe.

Sounds good in German  ;D
