Is that one of those cameras that makes my ass look big? I hate to tell you, but they are still in constant use.
No really it’s still used a lot in screenprinting for spot color jobs. The company I used to work for still uses it and buys it in those monster big rolls for the plotter (which also cuts vinyl for signs).
Amberlith, however, I haven’t seen in ages.
We hated to use ruby for compex jobs. And Og help us if our manager said “Well, have Yub-Yub help you peel the ruby it’ll go faster.” You have to understand, “Yub-Yub” was the well-deserved nickname for our cow-orker. It’s an abbreviation: You useles bitch, you useless bitch.
You’d have a 36" x 48" sheet of ruby from the plotter. Something really complicated like the green separation of a forest. You star peeling away at one end, working on your big film postive (oh, yeah you see where this is heading). Yub-Yub would start at the other end. At the halfway point you’d find out that she did hers as a negative.
Then you’d have to stab her to death with your bodkin.
I should be feeling your pain, but I have to admit I am laughing my ass off. I am okay with this, as that camera that will take up the slack.
