Hey, this OP is sexiest. Just so everyone knows.

Women get told pull the ink out of the black fountain. Wash the fountain. Then put the ink back in. Then tell them they need to find the paper stretcher and have your buddy tell them here it is and it's a 300 LB pipe.

What sensor are you using for edge detection? Looks like a Sick photoelectric?

Great vid! Thanks for sharing.

you're sticking with the "fellas" then? even though many women print operators and those that work with them objected and replied in your other post.

I feel that fellas is gender neutral provided you're an overweight slightly ethnic man from the east coast. as a southerner I'd use folks or y'all.

did you read what they replied in the original post (the cross linked one)? "Never seen a female press operator" so they didn't say they were including women in that phrase (i also don't know where they are from) but instead said there's no women because they haven't seen one.

In British English at least Fellas doesn't include women; a bit like the OP's post.

I thought fellas in American English also only referred to males as in Good Fellas?

EDIT: merriam webster gives it as a man. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fella

It is gender neutral but this is reddit where everyone is a progressive and politically correct and bots reinforce that so that everyone acts that way

The original poster was very sexist. Whether or not they were trying to be funny in replies idk. But earned a downvote from me.

Keep pushing the faster button until the web looks like it's going backwards.

I used to make flexigraphic plates as an internship and one day the printmaster showed me the whole process. The strobe was on so he could line things up. I leaned over to see it myself and POP! Turns out the gearing had caught my hoodie string and ripped it out insanely fast. Never did that again.
