Hi Doug,

Thanks very much for noticing the video and coming over from Hallmark to visit.

I had to kinda “shout” to get my own audio explanation over the voice of the tourguide, and over the noise of the machine. One of these days maybe I can lay a track of upbeat “bow-making” music over the clip so it’s a little more soothing.

I’ve been working at Hallmark headquarters for almost 30 years, and his machine has been a “wonderment” for tens of thousands of people…employees and the public alike. It IS an amazing machine isn’t it. I could watch it for hours and never get bored with it, kindof like watching a campfire.

Hi, “Hawaii Sheila!”

Yes, it’s rather mesmerizing to see; I didn’t want to waste ribbon but it was hard to quit punching that button.

That’s a pretty slick machine. I wish I had one at home to make custom bows.
