Kraken Up!

Evan’s back on Kraken Up!. He’s the guy who runs the R/C wrap side at Carpy’s, and this one is basically him sitting down and talking through how those wraps actually get made, plus where AI fits into that work and where it doesn’t.

We get into the design side, the stuff that still has to be done by hand, and the usual shop nonsense that shows up once you put a mic in front of us. If you’ve ordered a wrap from us, race RC, or you’re just curious how a print shop is actually using this stuff day to day, this is the episode.

Kraken Up! is back. Episode 22 with Garrett.

We sat down in the new shop, talked through the energy drink can contest, who actually won it, what’s been going on since we moved into the building, design work, AI, and the usual shop nonsense.

If you’ve been around Carpy’s for a while you already know the vibe. If you’re new: we wrap race cars and RC cars, print shirts, and try not to take ourselves too seriously while we do it.
