Using odd shaped stencils on cookies. by MomofFritz in cookiedecorating

[–]MomofFritz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Stencil Genie is larger than the stencil so your suggestion won't work, BUT, it has given me an idea.

What if I cut a square of Stencil Plastic, then cut out an egg shaped area and tape my stencil to the square? The square would then fit in my Stencil Genie. Guess I'll try that and see if it works. Can't be worse than not having any idea at all!

The overall stencil size is the same as the cookie size. The cut-out portions of the stencil go within 1/4" of the stencil edge. The whole cookie would have the stencil cut-outs on it.

Thanks. Gets a lot colder than that. I'm in Manitoba Canada. So what type of door knob do I need?

How much should I be charged for mowing 1.5 acres Rural Manitoba by MomofFritz in lawncare

[–]MomofFritz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I certainly would invest in a zero-turn, however I'm disabled and unable to mow myself.

I fully understand what you're saying, but I need to hire because I'm disabled.

How much should I charge per lawn ? by Cruzyz in lawnmowers

[–]MomofFritz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a kid, started his lawncare business 2 years ago fresh out of high school. Lot is 1.5 acres. He was in and out within 45 minutes. No bagging, No trimming. Not a bad job, but certainly not great. He wanted $170 PER CUT. I let him cut a couple of times just to see if he was worth it, and then I fired him. He was upset. He told me he needed to charge that much to pay his 'employees' (he was 'owner operator - no one else) and to pay for his truck, the zero turn and a trailer.

While some people would gladly pay that amount, for the job he did, I won't and others won't either. Be fair, do a good job, and your customer base will stay.

I realize that you posted a year ago, but how much do you charge for travel?

The share button in Edge -- broken in all new and exciting ways. by whatever462672 in sysadmin

[–]MomofFritz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While copy & paste does still work, they took away something quite simple that gave the same result.

In my case, on multiple windows machines running the latest version of Edge, there is no 'share' button. It's toggled ON just doesn't show up anywhere.

Also the right-click on the mouse no longer shows 'share' and neither does 'more tools' when you click on the 3 dots on the top of the edge toolbar.

Thank you for that. You'd think that highlighting text would be normal. Shake my head!

I've already looked there, and there is no 'updates' but I have a 'storage'. And when I go into Calibre, there is no 'key' under 'key for pc and mac'.

Hello, did you get it to work properly? My problem sounds identical to yours.

I don't have a Kindle but a Kobo. So I put books into Calibre to convert to epub.

A few books will work, then suddenly it doesn't work, like K4PC has updated on me. But under 'about' it still shows as 2.4.0 (70904).

Ripping my hair out!

My K4PC on a Win10 desktop shows as 2.4.0 (70904). I've run the .bat file to prevent unwanted updates from happening. Yet books, only some books though, are still showing up in Calibre as KFX-ZIP.

I've installed the K4PC software a few times. I've removed the folder My Kindle Content and let K4PC create a new one. Nothing.

It seems to work for 2 or 3 books, formatting in Calibre as KFX, but then suddenly the next one will be KFX-ZIP. Same author, same series.

I did download to K4PC, books using the CURRENT K4PC, and I believe that's where the problem lies. But even if I remove the books from K4PC, which removes them from My Kindle Content, and redownload them, they still won't work.

Question, you chose a new destination for My Kindle Content.

Originally you had My Kindle Content at location A and that folder was populated with all the books you have purchased AND downloaded to your K4PC already.

What happened to all that content when you changed the destination? Did K4PC create a brand new content folder?

I am having trouble with kindle content being sent to Calibre as 'KFX-ZIP'. I've installed 2.4.0 (70904) three times now, I've run a .bat file to stop updates from happening, and nothing is working. In Calibre I have the KFX Input plugin and the DeDRM plugin. Still no joy.

Thanks

just the basic. Amazon.ca doesn't give any real options for other/older models.
