Looks very good! What about putting complete names in addition in smaller font at the bottom, except for people that don't want it?
This is the joy of printing them at the rally. We can add your name if you like and we won't be wasting labels on folks that don't care to wear them. These are thermal and adhesive backed so you can drop them in a credentials holder or stick them on your shirt. They also (some of them) have the cutout to put a clip on them but since they are paper. doesn't work the best. They would probably work well on your cover of you wear one as well.

I may be able to get my hands on some credential holders if you are interested. What size are they and how many holders do you think you would need?

These are roughly 2 1/2 x 4". Credential holders would be cool but one for everyone isn't realistic. There will be a couple of hundred people by the time they come and go, would be nice though.

The holder would be great since I may decide to change clothes sometime during the four day event. :)
Last year I pre-printed a bunch and factored in the remote possibility that folks may change clothes. I made 3ea. This year as long as supplies don't run out, folks can return for more labels as needed.

No one is probably thinking about the rally yet - or getting ready - or waiting to see their friends - or buy parts - or sell your wares - or eatiNG at the awesome MKT - or headed out onto the fantastic trail rides - or heading down to the Vets post that WM set up for us - or checking out other members trucks.

BUT
THERE ARE 10 MORE DAYS TO MAKE PLANS

Dwight, if you have room, bring the genset. My jump box has an inverter but not sure how long it will last. There may be power at the gate as well.
Thanks.

If there is need for a larger generator, I can bring my trailer mounted MEP-003A generator. Plenty of power, but VERY noisy.

My ex father-in-law was trying to get me to take his generator, did not think I would need it.I was think to run electronics, would need surge protection. I will load it up, maybe it can be used.

CAMO sorta started getting ready for the GA Rally today Zout...not that we are excited or anything...LOL:drool::drool:

We unloaded the "crane thingy" after only nearly a year, checked her out some and started loading a couple of trailers with "nice to have" stuff.

Then hooked up the "spinny thing" in the pics and started cleaning our saved up WMO/TF/WTF concoction to provide fuel for the multifuels making the trip. Should end up with about 300 gallons when we are done...that saves about a thousand bucks in fuel!:shock:

Also tinkered with a secret project and it's coming along well...hey Zout...how ya doin Bro??:beer:

ARE WE THERE YET???:drool::drool: HEEERRRREEE PIGGY:drool::drool:

Hmmm...now that's a darn good question, and one that deserves some serious discussion over a cold glass of "Zout Elixer":drool: (With white cherries of course)

One would also need to provide some excellent close up pics to gander at while partaking of said beverages.

I gotta tell ya though Kenny...I REALLY like the crane thingy...even though I don't have a clue how to work it.

4x4 - that is one nice Knuckle - saw it in person and was drooling on - I am sure PB will throw in the drool for free.

Ya know - couple "hits" and you both might forget what you were dealing over at the rally.:beer:
