need smart computer guys help...

I was asked where to get a CHEAP degree wheel

heres one you can print out and save for engine builds on the engine stand
(put curser on an click)

I don,t know how to explain how to get the picture printed, but my younger son (32 years old) printed it and had it laminated for me, I made several copies on hard plastic sheet

try, right click , hit "save as," then saved it to my desktop. Opening it with Windows Picture and Fax viewer will let you print it centered on a single piece of paper.

This is more of an answer thread, than a question eh?

That picture for the degree wheel, with the intake valve opening etc, wouldn't that be specific for a certain cam? And not useful for any ol' cam?

NO! what I need is exact step by step instructions for computer illiterates to produce a printed 18" full size color copy at someplace like KINKOS from the picture on the computer

figgure your dealing with a guy who bought a computer about three days ago.......


Look IF this was tuning or building an engine IM up to speed, my computer skills in some areas are far less than IDEAL, but as far as getting a picture on a site changed into a poster size degree wheel I can laminate when I need more copies, IM IN THE DARK

I'd probably just take it to Kinko's and say "Here, print this".

Yea, if you can bring it to the store on a memory stick or something, then just say "print this on B size paper" or something like that. Tell them to make it 18" in diameter.
a .png file should be useable by anyone I think.

So you'll need a way to bring it to Kinkos, etc. Memory stick, or burn it on a cd would work fine. Then they should be able to figure out printing it full size (18"), color, and laminate it.
