Title: New cards
Post by: thechknhwk on April 28, 2017, 03:46:54 AM
Proofs of my new cards.  As opposed to the old cards which haven't existed for a year or more.  2 sided with lumber scale on the back.

very nice ! In my business I often use the back of the card to leave a quick note. The last ones I got are shiny on both sides and I cant write on them ,now I have to carry sticky notes to write on.

   Nice cards. I buy mine 1,000 at a time from Staples. I think last batch were about $27. On the back of mine I include a 1/4 International log rule as I normally bill by the bf for sawing and people always ask me how many bf are in a log. This way they can estimate their own costs.

I like the cards.  You should add your website to them.

If you don't have one, you need one.  They are 24/7/365 salesmen that also answer common customer questions and work for peanuts or even free.   :D

Chknhwk :
I hope you did not pay too much for those cards.
I'd like to know how you do the math that says that a 1" x 6" x 12' is 5 board feet.
I only checked the first line and did not agree with 1 of 4 entries.

The formula in the spread sheet had the wrong number in it, but thanks for your constructive criticism, and I have fixed it.  I don't see any other errors however, so if you could please elaborate?  I paid A LOT of money for them :D

Nevermind, I see it says you only checked the first line.

I like those cards, concise, to the point, and easy to read.
