Well, I'm a "SE" in training.
I've got two other shops that send me all the hard stuff....like lasering on glass, lasering 10 brass plates with a logo that needs to be scanned in (and they do have the same laser and scanner that I h ave!).......sublimation.......etc. I'm amazed at some of the "easy" stuff that they have me do. Oh, well.
I have engraved on a lot of "weird" things. So I have a lot of 1 time molds made to hold them.

How neat, I just assumed they would want to save those items until they got to go to the "Big City".
When I went up to MN a week ago, I didn't see your sign out on I-35 - you must not have paid your elect. bill, since I went thru at night. And I know you've already got all the people off of I-29 coming in.

John,
I don't have any billboards on I-35, but when you drove through Des Moines you may have seen some of my work. Six percent of my total business is done with Des Moines customers. I have been able to establish this base thanks to the help of old childhood friends and relatives who live in that area.
And yes, I have paid my electric bill. My gasoline bill may be a different issue this month.

But, at least your gas prices were less than here!.................Now, California is a different subject, I heard they are around $2.75 for regular unleaded in central part of the state - LA must be $$$$$.
