Ruben, We'll need an hispanic space traveler along, (to interpret), in case we encounter illegal aliens. :P Thank you, David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri DGL Engraving Port Hueneme, CA

Congrats David,

I look forward to seeing all the upgrades and improvements that you have been working on the last few years while planning for this day.....I can hardly wait to see what you have done to the joint. ;)

Thanks,

Brian

Thank you Brian. The site will be essentially the same, with upgrades and improvements coming steadily. This move will give me more time to devote to those aspects. Running the balancing act of being nearly-omnipresent here, while trying to maintain a profitable engraving business, has been a challenge. :-) David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri DGL Engraving Port Hueneme, CA

I find this whole thing kinda ironic.

The other site started because this was going to be a pay site. The other site started charging before you did.

I am only going to pay for one site and this is it!'

Thanks for a great service.

Steve, Oh boy! I don't want to open that can of worms, but I truly appreciate your support. How else are we going to keep track of your adventures with the Chinese laser machine? :-) Thanks again; it means a lot to me. David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri DGL Engraving Port Hueneme, CA

No problem. I don't want to open any can of worms either!

I did not mean to put down the other site in any way. I just want to make sure that I did not imply anything negative.

I just don't want to pay for more than one site and I decided on this one for various reasons.

Your statement is not totally true, we have a FREE forum with many advanced features and a Premium Members area that has Training Videos, Software and many other features that is $20 per year to help offset server and bandwidth costs.

We have never had a "Forum War", both forums serves a purpose but in a different direction. I suggest you join David's forum and visit us on our free forum. That is a "Win Win" for everyone.

And David I truly wish you success with your new forum, it takes a lot of hard work to run a forum.

Thank you Ken. As you suggest, there will be fans of one forum, or the other, or both. As much as they look alike, there are decided differences in the function and audience they serve. All the best, David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri DGL Engraving Port Hueneme, CA

Like I said I am not saying anything bad about your site.

But I can only spend time on one engraving forum, and this is the one.

Well for a first time, this can of worms has been opened and I will not say anything, but David you know my thoughts on the issue and you you know I have your back. Now that I actually have my laser, it is really interesting to put in action some of the advice that I have picked up on here. I have played around on some of the other sites and this site is the one that the others try to emulate. Keep up the good work and I am definitely on board.

Thank you for not tipping over the can.

David and I are strong believers that the high road, is the ONLY road.

I thank our members for staying with us on the high road.

Thank you Franklin. The purpose of my announcement was to give a bit of prior notice of the launch. Thankfully, for those opposed to a subscription site, there are alternatives. David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri DGL Engraving Port Hueneme, CA

quote: I think it's the diversity of David's forum that has made it such a popular place to be. It's a virtual one-stop support center. David, It is MORE than that. There is truly a sense of family and commaraderie that exists here that I have not found anywhere else...... Just my two cents. Want change? B-)

I have an overdraft on my "advice" account being relatively new to this industry - I will gladly join the subscription format as the site has been so useful to me over the past couple of years.

Count me in, and hopefully, one day, my "advice" account will be in credit with me having a little more to give back too.

Good luck!

Andrew - I hear what your saying but, keep in mind, questions that are asked and answered are a learning tool for many, no matter if your new to the trade or an seasoned vet. Question and answers stimulate thought and growth, that is one reason the forum concept has so much value to it. Your a valuable part of the forum, keep asking questions. I know I will. Joe

Joe, As you say, it's the dynamic between experienced "instructors" and inquisitive "students" that provides the fuel for the site. By all means, I urge people to ask their questions, no matter how well-covered, or insignificant they may seem. Ask a question; get an expedient and comprehensive answer. That's our cornerstone function. David "The Stunt Engraver" Lavaneri DGL Engraving Port Hueneme, CA
