The Shirt Board.Com Is International
« on: May 21, 2015, 08:14:20 PM »
I had the very distinct pleasure to meet up with our good friend Maxie from Israel this week during the Fespa Cologne exhibition.

Maxie:  I enjoyed meeting you this week and having the opportunity to learn about your operation, and about the greater garment decorating segment in Israel

Some won't believe it, but though concerned with spelling and pucuation in general, I actually show restraint in pointing out errors, as it makes me seem overbearing to many.
However, years ago, I publicly declared, that some missed keys, or other errors result in great humor, and can not pass up those opportunities. That said, I have to point out, that if any one here is a "goof" friend, it would be yours truly.  ;D

That said, all our best to Maxie, Peter, and all of our other friends lucky enough to visit Fespa.

Maybe "goof" is an Australian slang for something like"really cool"?

Or he just started an International incident. Ha!
But we know Peter better than that.  :)

Yes FESPA would be fantastic.

Peter thanks for the post.   It was nice meeting you as well.
We'll take the good part of the typo, the dictionary has nothing nice to say about goof, not Australian, American or any other English slang.
I was at Long Beach in January and wouldn't have gone to FESPA but I needed some spare parts from MHM and it was cheaper for me the fly over and fetch them than have them shipped, and I got to go to FESPA as well.
For screen printers Long Beach was much more interesting.     FESPA covers five halls and only one is silk screen, all the rest are digital, display materials, etc.
Rich Hoffman was there, M&R had a big display.    Nice to meet someone who has succeeded through creativity and hard work, he's also a really nice guy.     I looked at the I Image and Starlight. But I'm not ready for these yet.
I am going to be buying a new carousel so I looked at the MHM X treme and the S Roq.     I already have a MHM and think it's a great machine.      I've heard good things about the S Roq but it will take a big price difference to even get me to consider it.

Maxie, just a thought here. . . used E-types are going prety cheap now and since you already have one/know it well, I would imagine buying a sued one in us and shipping it over there would be a pretty good move.

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

Watch out Pierre!  The Frog will be coming after you next for your reference to a "sued' MHM E-type :)

A sued unit could be one that was sold after someone was sued for not paying the leasing company.
Pierre, second hand might be worth checking but they are not making E Types anymore and there might be a spare parts problem down the road.
I already have to change my frequency converter every time I change a head board because the new boards are not compatible with original frequency converter supplied with the E a type and they don't have any of the old boards.
I am also looking at a 14 or 16 station machine.
There were a lot of ovals at FESPA.     Nice but expensive.
