I had seen the use of label machines in labeling instrument panels before but got my first taste of it yesterday. I bought this at Office Max (or Office Depot, heck I can't ever remember which one it is we have in town:-) at a whole whoppin $19 yesterday.

I'm going to heat a couple of them up as if under the canopy on a summer day and see what they do. From what I hear, they work just fine. You can get all differnet colors such as: black/clear, red/clear, gold/black..........the list goes on. You can print in five different sizes, nine different styles including vertically and six different underlines or frames. I know numerous people will post other ways to do it that work just fine, so have at it as I don't remember this thread popping up here lately. For $19 this falls right into my line of thinking which is cheapest/easiest, kinda like the $18 cheapest/easiest static system. BTW, this is a Brother P-touch 1180.............piece a cake!! Yes, sure I will have an Eject button in my airplane on the passenger side:-) Another BTW, I'll post a big time, major, put a smile on my face cheapest/easiest tomorrow on Fun Friday...........course I'll probably get a few smacks over the head with baseball bats, but so be it.
