I could totes see you doing this. Hacking away while thinking of upseeker or your current poster nemesis at the time.

Newbs. Ive been buying the 3” x 48” Yazoo tubes and cutting to size with a little reciprocating saw for years. The 48” are extra thick - basically uncrushable when you cut to smaller lengths.

My kraft roll is 36" wide so I've always just cut the paper to the length of the tube pre-rolling as opposed to stuffing fudge in the tube. Guess I'm going to have to test cutting a couple of inches off each tube from here on out though. Fun damn times.

in that case just buzz/hack the entire roll
the point was, roll is sized vs cutting each one manually
that 15 dollar bump is more like 20 after ebay gets done taxing you

The title of this thread is a bit misleading…no?
Any of ya'll been using "Ground Advantage" to ship posters yet? If so, how has it been so far? Seems way cheaper than Priority with the ridiculous size requirements introduced last year. I figure they're trying to rival UPS Ground, but with dis it wouldn't be necessary to stick tubes in a box.
