client: "This logo the outline on the left is pulling away from the fill. Can you totally redo this" ? totally redo? this is a simple edit to compensate, no problem. start from scratch? then come to find out by the "left" they meant the left on the hat as you wear it... which for the actual design is really the "right" side/ arggg

the rain in Spain... lol

client wants to know why the tagline is sewing through the logo.! I am sorry sir but when I look at the design it is under the design not on top , hence "tagline" he calls up design on his computer and also the tagline is Under the design. machine jump? operator hitting magical buttons? just seems odd that the machine would move up .75 inch all by itself. Any ideas?

Sounds to me like a corrupted file transfer or export or something. If he exported the file or loaded a dst via a floppy disk, (assuming he doesn't have a visual display of the file loaded at this point which is why modern machines have screens) it is possible to have bad bits on overused disks normally floppy disks transfer programs and poor disks will just cause a failure to run the program... But with these types of files... say for some reason the 5th bit of the third byte of a jump stitch somehow got transmitted as a 1 or more likely didn't get properly turned into a 0 on a overused floppy (each individual stitch are the sum total of 3 bytes of data with all but 4 bits corrilating to real world measures of movement) then you end up with 8.1mm of upward movement... That 1 bit signifies 8.1mm of movement in the y axis.

If it isn't that then it could be a format error or other*

Serial cables can also have bit failures as well and some machines may be programmed to move via calculated path instead of jump paths and may have caused an issue. (I ran into that problem before as my 4 heads throw out jump paths and decides for itself to move to the next location which caused issues on hats I was running)

sounds fun actually. would be interesting to discuss opinions on different parts as well.

Honestly itd be interesting to compare opinions on things like digitizing choices as well as production etc.

tbh Im actually only 29. (and apparently everyone tells me i look 23) But somehow in 6 years I became an expert? lol

29 ha, that means I have been digitizing longer than you are old! 30 years this past November. Do not ask me to help with a car's engine but digitizing?, well that is a different story. Who would think that anyone could make a great living off of a micro industry like digitizing!!

Today (keeping on topic of thread) a client wants to know why I quoted them such a high price for digitizing when they already did the "hard part" of vectorizing the art. ah yes today we just press a button and quality digitizing is made!
