    Joe,

    I will place my first order for Frog Juice tomorrow.

    Mike,

    I got an extra sheet of teflon with the new press we just bought. I expect the previous owner was using it insode shirts to prevent the bleed through you mentioned.

    Thanks for the tips, now if I can find the box that I put the T-Shirts we ordered months ago I can give them a try

    Keith,
    For shirts I just use a piece of cheap copy paper inbetween the front and back. That way I don't have to clean the teflon - you will get an accumulation on the teflon sheet and have to clean it off - not so with paper.
    I use:
    teflon
    blowout paper
    shirt (back)
    paper (inside the shirt)
    shirt (front)
    transfer
    blowout paper
    teflon

    The paper inside can be used a couple of times, same as the blowout paper.

    I agree. Also pre-press your fabric to flatten and remove humidity.

    Kenneth,

    No pronlem, I should have a price sometime today on the 1/4" sheet and I plan to cut it into small plaque size pieces. It should be in the neighborhood of 8 cents per square inch. An 8" by 10" plaque should be about $6.40 plus shippping and I will use USPS flat rate shipping when I can.

    This is really nice stuff for dye-sub and also for laser engraving, letter cut-outs, inlays, bathroom accessories, light switch covers, etc.

    Kenneth,

    I just got the price and ordered a sheet of 1/4". The sheet size is 30" by 96" but the price per square inch is the same as 1/2" Corian. I can cut your pieces 8" by 30" .

    Keith
    if three pieces are to many I can live with two.
    not sure if three would run you short
    if not three is good
    ken
    let me know how you want paid and the amount with shipping

    Kenneth,

    The Glasier White 1/4" Corian was delivered yesterday, You can have three pieces of 30" by 8", it will still leave me plenty for the jobs I have planned with some left over.

    I will PM you with the shipping costs ASAP, looks like I will have to build a box to ship your Corian.

    Keith
    thank you
    the laser bed is only 24 inch so if cutting it smaller
    makes it easier to ship do so and I like you can also use the
    smaller pieces
    thanks again
