Is your NIX the simplified version for sampling color or the full on version for color profiling? Have you used it for print profiling? They look neat but have never talked to anyone using them.

Have heard good things and thought about getting one because a lot of the wholesalers I use have MPC setups. I ended up getting a used xrite i1pro for cheap which is more useful in the shop for profiling and scanning. Two very different tools but so far I haven't ran into a situation where I...

I agree with stacking, it keeps the from blowing out a burr on the bottom surface of each sheet and make a cleaner cut. Lightly clamp the stack so they stay together. We use regular twist drill or punch mostly. Step bits need cautionto not accidentally remove the aluminum face around the hole...

https://a360.co/3WaDzfi That is the basic design with angled thin fins I came up with.

I was playing around with one in Autodesk Fusion with variable spacing to try to get the best viewing from 3 images (very basic graphics) and could probably figure out a way to drop the fil in once and have it "mapped" to each instance of the model. Rendering in fusion is pretty good too. Ill...

For something that cheap I would double the total material cost and add labor.

Yep, classic. Had a bigger ad agency spec pantone colors on reception sign a few years ago. Had gemini paint match it to pantone and it was VERY close. Had the customer look at it in person before installing because I knew they wouldn't be happy with it. Of course they said "that's not even...

Canva bought out Affinity, and "pledged" to pour more resources into dev and distributing. Free licenses to teachers and students. They are gunning for Adobe and I don't see the competition as a bad thing. Canva used to be a curse word coming from customers but I have been surprised lately. A...

Quality MFG in Minnesota, World Wide Sign in WI, Faces Inc. is down south. I would imagine there are several closer to you, maybe Integrity Sign Solutions?

Soggywinter update us with what you find, I spoke with a ultraflex rep that had a few options last year but haven't taken tome to order or run any. I'm sure the CSAshop team would have some recommendation as well.

Depends what the majority of your use is, but I would start by looking at vectric products

Pretty sure they are looking for 1" edge seal tape instead of 1/2".

If any of your suppliers have a log slitter just buy a normal roll of your preferred media and ask them to slice off a roll however wide you want. Then you can use the remaining as usual (how often do you need laminate full bleed).

Are you pulling media size from the printer into onyx or just using a preset roll size? Go into media settings and placement to make sure you dont have margins set or anything but from the looks of it it should be fine. Maybe restart onyx and see what happens. For the dashboard check to make...

Grimco Briteline poster paper is pretty good but might be too heavy for some uses.
