Remember that the old logo was actually a simplified version of the one from the 1990s, so they've been flattening and simplifying it for years now. This latest version just took that process a step further by removing the yellow background and making the bell shape more angular. I think it works fine for digital menus and app icons, which is probably what they were aiming for. But on a physical sign it does look a little cheap, like what you'd see at a small town burger stand. The old one had more character and stood out better from a distance on the highway.

Wait, 70% humidity? My basement never gets above 55% even in the dead of summer (I check it obsessively now) and even that feels borderline. Can't imagine unrolling vellum into a 70% soup like that, @the_patricia is right that a hygrometer should be mandatory for anyone storing paper supplies. The polyester film bailout was smart though, even if it wrecked your budget for the week.

My buddy Tom had the same issue with his 12 inch blade on a miter saw last month. He was doing crosscuts on some oak trim and the blade would wander about a 32nd on every other cut. It drove him crazy until he realized the arbor washer was a little loose, not the calibration itself.

Man, I had a buddy grab a cheap air compressor at a yard sale for twenty bucks. He figured it'd die in a month but it's been running strong for two years straight now. Sometimes you just get lucky with the oddball stuff, I guess.

Funny how tiny things turn into a whole career, man.
