This week, Bethany had all of the prints for the firetruck mostly finished, she just printed out stickers and sent them to the cutting machine, if the were off it was fine. The stickers were just nice extras that we wanted to give them. They cut perfectly, and all we had left (besides packaging the prints) was to print the black backdrops for the gold letters. When we sent those to the cutting machine, the cutting machine was off somehow. And cut the letters wrong by about a centimeter and a half. So we had to reprint them, Not all of them were cut wrong because we had stopped the machine in time to line it up to get at least some of the black backdrops cut correctly.

Towards the end of my stay on wednesday, Steve approached me he asked me if I wanted something to work on while I was here, and I of course said yes. He proposed that I design a wrap to go onto his truck, he had been wanting to wrap it for a while. Wrapping a truck meant coming up with a design laying it out and printing it on an adhesive that would stay on the truck through tough weather. Then installing it after everything was ready. I agreed to design it and talked about ideas of what he wanted. I came up with two different ideas, a pokemon truck and a truck with flames and a dragon.
