  1. Looking for local printers, short runs. Delaware

    Yes, absolutely considering driving and picking them up. I can combine trips to make it feasible as Delaware is a small state. I'm not ruling out shipping but prefer local. Delaware or even most of the Eastern Shore of Maryland is not a difficult drive.
  2. Looking for local printers, short runs. Delaware

    Gino, we had a Roland printer from Tyrrell Tech, great company. We sold it to focus more on apparel.
  3. Looking for local printers, short runs. Delaware

    We do mainly embroidery and cut vinyl, we have a few customers that still come to us for printing. I had a local shop do our small runs but he sold his printer. Looking for someone in or close to central Delaware to work with. Thank You for any help.
  4. Question Glueing paper to coro

    Thank You for all the replies. The range buys targets in bulk and have about a years supply, so printing of any type is not likely. I am not doing the actual work other than supplying the coro. They use an electronic scoring system so they can use the coro more than once and not shoot out the...
  5. Question Glueing paper to coro

    They are using the coro as a backer for 600 and 1000 yard paper targets. It holds up better through a match. The coro is slid into a type of frame with the target glued to it. The whole target needs to be glue so there are no ripples in it. They are looking for a more cost effective and uniform...
  6. Question Glueing paper to coro

    They are using large size printed plain paper, the whole sheet needs adhesive.
  7. Question Glueing paper to coro

    I have a customer using spray glue on coro to attach paper to it. They are using full sheets of coro and covering most of it. Cost and time is becoming a factor. Is there a cost effective roll on type glue to do this?
  8. What Do Like Best About The Sign Biz?

    Working with my wife, and two basset hounds.When a job is finished and seeing the customer "smile" and say "wow". Seeing our work around town and knowing that it was our shop that made that logo or design. Getting a call from a new customer 2 hrs away because they had a friend tell them we would...
  9. Thanks to Typestries Sign and Digital

    I want to give a "Thank You" to Rick at Typestries. He did some printing for us with a FAST turnaround. His tag line, "We Print, You Profit" is true.He gave me room to add my % and labor and not overprice the job. http://weprintyouprofit.com/ Kate was great to work with also. Thank You.
  10. got heat transfer vinyl but no idea what it is

    It sounds like you have a print heat transfer material. You can print and contour cut it then mask and apply with a heat press. Check out some T shirt forums they have threads on it.
  11. Adding Corel

    I downloaded the trial version,so far I like it. It did a bitmap trace alot better than Flexi.Most of the tools I use in Flexi are similiar in Corel,just named differently or a different icon. I think the transition may not be as bad as I was thinking. It will take some time but I can fall back...
  12. Adding Corel

    Thanks OP,when it comes time I will hit you up if I have any trouble installing.From one cave man to another.
  13. Adding Corel

    Thanks Wayne, I was have been searching and seem to find I will have to use production manager in flexi to plot. I was hoping it would be a few clicks away in Corel like it is in flexi instead of having to import/export.Guess I will figure out a system that works for us. Thanks
  14. Adding Corel

    I appreciate the replies and support. I downloaded the trial version until the full version is shipped. Going to watch the tutorials on it.There is a 2hr dvd included with full version,that should cover everything.I learned Flexi on the fly so I guess picking up Corel with some tutorials should...
  15. Adding Corel

    We have been using Flexi expert for a long time.We are still at ver 7.6 it does everything we want it to do,works great and we are comfortable with it. We decided to look into upgrading to ver 10,we know we are two versions behind and knew it would cost us. We got a price from our dealer at...
