Unlock the secret of timeless colours with the Wool Scale! 🌟 Did you know the lifespan of your prints in daylight is all about the wool scale (WS) rating? 📊 From the short 5-day lifespan of WS 1 to WS 8's impressive 700-day endurance, each level on the scale doubles the time your inks remain authentic. 🌈 But beware, direct sunlight cuts these numbers in half. Also bear in mind that in a mix of different inks, the weakest element sets the pace. It’s a challenge even for the best colours! 👉 Discover more about light fastness by taking a look at our slideshow – swipe now! #printings #inks #printingtechnology #woolscale #lightfastness

My favourite use case for my own 3D printed insoles is stand-up-paddle (SUP). On the board you stand in a quite static position if you go longer distances, and the arch support is a great relief. Moreover, the insoles have a good grip on the board, and when they get entangled in seaweed they can be put in the washer without any deformation. #3dprinting #insoles #TPU

Let's talk shop. When it comes to my work, whether I'm assisting a customer, talking to a new lead, tackling challenges head-on, diving into new projects, or nurturing long-term relationships, one thing's for sure – I take pride in everything I do.

Regarding Print Quality... ✅ 🔸 Ghosting is a term used to describe ink distribution that has occurred unevenly, on opposite sides of the paper, or accidentally in the background of the desired image. 🔸 This quality issue is specific to the type of machine being used and can be very unpredictable throughout the print process. 🔸 Here at Minuteman Press, however, we specialize in recognizing these errors, so you and your business have quality print material every time! #MinutemanPress #KingstonPA #PrintShop #PrintingPress #QualityChecks #Ghosting 👻
