[Emc-users] OT - decal/paint printing. Re: Piccolo
Thanks for the ideas; I *believe*, though that: 1) the old dry-transfer lettraset white letters you used to purchase are no longer being produced; 2) decal paper for laser/inkjet printers - you can get it clear or white, but printing white on clear (white lines and old script lettering) is not possible - no white ink! 3) the old AALPS (sp?) printer people used is no longer being made and the cartridges are hard to get; (they had multi colours, including white) 4) printing with a CNC printer would have that neat factor. There are people who will make ink decals on clear decal paper (or, dry transfer lettering), so there are lots of ways still do this - I don't know the lead time or cost, though. (not that those really matter, as these locomotives take years to build, and any high costs get amortized over the years) Waiting for my Oldham couplers to arrive from misumi so that I can get my CNC machine back running -- JohnS. -- Virtualization Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

Simply print using a BW laser (or copier) and convert the graphic or text to WHITE or any of a dozen real METALLIC shades plus do FULL COLOR graphics using any color laser printer or color copier.
