Hi James. Haven't been on the forum for a very long time and just happened to drop by for a visit today when I saw your question. I've been using an L20 for more than 7 years and just yesterday...

Hey, THANKS, Larry. Saw "granite" in the name you listed and the old steel trap mind filled in the rest as it saw fit. That's great. I really appreciate it!

Ok - I knew it! Overdid it again and the first 6 pictures didn't make it. That's ok. I'm patient. I'll keep tryin'.

Terry - I did a fairly long post (I know...hard to believe) on lithichrome once before, but here is the gist of my opinion.

Best stuff available for harsh outdoor climates - including those rare,...

Well, I feel a proper fool. Not to put my heart too far out on my sleeve, I have 3 people very dear to me in one way or another that don't have much time left on this side of eternity. I realize,...

Terry,
I came in to work early to find, and post, a bunch of pictures showing the contrast between black marble and absolute black granite as well as "good" absolute black granite versus "not good"...

Not sure you will be able to see the difference, but the emblems of the U.S. Service branches would have had details washed out if we used as much power on them as we did the text. Conversely, the...

Sorry, hardly any pictures on this computer. The centaur is from a test we were doing with 3cm granite frames for painted 1 cm black veinless marble. This particular one was a tropic brown granite...

I think you wil like the results after you dial in the right settings. As stated elsewhere, I would expect higher power or lower speed or some combination thereof as compared to abs blk granite.
...

We've done a lot of both for several years now and I would basically agree with the "marble inside, granite outside" mantra. The veinless black marble has a sharp, beautiful contrast every time and...

I still use Uline for some items, but mostly go to http://www.staplesindustrial.com/ any more. They carry the products I use the most for a lot less than Uline. Sometimes the items in the "Clearance...

Can't vouch for the quality because we haven't received our unit yet, but I've talked at length...

Once again Rodney's words are sage. Sorry, I don't know how to pull his quote in down here except the old-fashioned way: "yes, if you already have a captive audience and client base , it might be...

Thanks! - Please include me.

Rodne - we are all very blessed that you share your huge trophy of knowledge with us (pun partially intended) on a regular basis. It's always down to earth, no BS, and sound. Perhaps it is partly...

In the corners???

Having both bought and sold from iStockphotos I honestly empathize with both sides of the issue. But I gotta tell 'ya... the reason iStock and Getty images do so well is that graphic designers and...

Frank - That sounds like a good plan and since I never seem to have time to wax the car anymore, why not put the stuff to good use? Thanks!

Rodne – I see what you mean and that makes sense. The...

Please include me!

Filling the cracks is just what I'm looking for but does it wipe cleanly off the surface and allow the natural shine of the acrylic to remain? Are there tricks to make that happen? Does it look good...

Hi Brad – welcome to the Creek! For memorials and monuments I stick with lithichrome whenever possible. The color selection is fair but you’re pretty much stuck with what they have. The colors do not...

We just found a box of laser tile that got misplaced over 2years ago. The variations in how each piece reacted to the laser were amazing! The image could hardly be seen on some and were almost as...

Hey Dan & Bob - thanks a bunch. Figured it was something simple but often can't find my head with both hands.

Anthony - thanks for reining me in. Unfortunately my fingers work faster than my...

Steve- about the lithichrome... it's great for outdoor use. Best UV resistance I know of. We've used it on tombstones, monuments, and large and small signage with great results. Goes on easy with an...

Thanks for the kind remarks. I know I don’t post much, but I normally only get to catch up on the Creek on Saturday mornings and by then most of the things I could contribute are already said....
