----- Original Message -----From: desyreSent: Wednesday, August 09, 2006 6:44 PMSubject: RE: [bc2000] Re: BCR Plastic OverlaysMy thoughts:
I just thought if someone could make up a die-cutter for the templates they
would be pretty easy to print on sticky backed laser printer (or better)
paper. I know I used the behringer templates to print on thick paper before
gluing to cereal box thickness card and then hand cutting out. And still
I've had to use blu-tack to keep them attached half decently to my bcr.
I only use my bcr in Mackie mode so there is never really any need for me to
change, but if I did, then removing the templates shouldn't prove too
difficult with any left over sticky/bits of card easily being taken off
with some lighter/art fluid and cotton wool.
The main thing is getting a nice edge, which took me a while with a scalpel
blade and still looks a bit amateurish, so if someone sould set up a die
cutter this would be excellent and I'd certainly buy - but like I said it
would be excellent to have them sticky backed (or optional depending on
others' thoughts).
Also it would be good to provide some with punch out die-cut/perforated that
you could run through your home printer for your own customised layouts.
And for the pre printed and completely blank ones it might be good to have a
laminated/stick back plastic coated overlay - for protection for the presets
and for a wipe on wipe off for some customisable options?
Either way it would be great to colour code the shift and Page+/Page-
options throughout the presets just to help with a visual aid - I'm always
forgetting which button to press to change another's functions.
Anyway just my thoughts - hope they help.
Cheers
Craig.

When I was a kid in the 80's, there were these toys
that were basically a picture book with plastic pages, to which removable
stickers could be stuck. These removable stickers would hold pretty firmly
to the plastic pages, but they also peeled cleanly off, and could be restuck
with equal strength later.
If anyone knows what type of material the plastic
pages and the removable stickers were made out of, and knew a good way to print
on the removable sticker material, this would be ideal for printing templates
out on and using with the BCF/BCR.
Does anyone know of such a material or pair of
materials?
