hey guys! so i also have been in touch with QCM (greg specifically) prior to this merger/sale/hostiletakeover. he assures me that the new company will have the same system, same prices, and also should offer small batches. he was kind enough to email a price sheet (from quart to multiple 50gal drum ...

i have not done enough tests on the PBT (lack of material) i assume that is what u are using. we ran photos and various printouts and the clarity is almost better when sublimated. that being said it depends on the substrate, with a light weave nylon/spandex combo some of the definition is lost, howe...

pine yeah the setup of the inserts requires a lot of math and scary small measuring. luckily everything lined up pretty well for me this time around. i spent the better part of a day checking and rechecking the placement before drilling holes. make sure to dryfit before layup too, any small imperfec...

yeah he makes me feel like a kid when we ride together. this season he mastered a bunch of different doubles, and he has no fear on top of big cliffs and steep lines. i think we have the snowboard dialed in for him too, thats an accomplishment in itself. he does tend to go through them. so we ran a ...
