Title: Schematic copying
Post by: USSEnterprise on September 15, 2005, 04:10:30 pm

I have a schematic for my pinball machine, but the thing's 30 years old and tearing at all the fold points. The other problem is that its about 5 feet long.  Anyone know of someplace I could get this professionally photocopied without it needing to be cut in half?

Kinko's, I would guess, or any professional copy shop.

Kinkos should have a large format scanner.

Ok, thanks. Staples was telling me they'd have to cut it up, but I'd perfer not do that

I've had full-sized blueprints and poster sized stuff copied on the big drum scanners at Kinko's.

Staples is staffed by the people smart enough not to work at Walmart but not smart enough to work at Target.  Only go there if you need no help.

Staples is the Radio Shack of the office products stores.  ::)

I once went there looking for staples.  The Staples sales girl could not find staples.

Good looking sales girls? NO. 250 pound 40 year old woman, at least I think she's a woman, wait. I don't want to remember this

What is Black Friday?

I believe that's what the hard core shoppers call the Friday after Thanksgiving.

So you're secretly a midnight burgler?

No, I avoid them when they are closed too.

I am the evil midnight bomber, what bombs at midnight.  Boom baby boom!
