  1. Discussion What do you wish you had a better source for?

    I've been looking at pan faced; however, I found a supplier for an LED blacklit shallow box with Poly face...I just need a better price and closer to Southern Oregon!
  2. Discussion What do you wish you had a better source for?

    Large job suppliers; by this I mean sublimated canopies, large backlit signs, etc. I'm currently looking and not finding a great source for a 5' x 8' backlit sign box.
  3. CJV30 Can't get all Black nozzles to fire

    Did you manage to get your issue remedied? My Jv150-160 is doing the exact same thing as yours! Mimaki and Midwest suggest the head height is too high 0.o I also can't get my Feed Comp to eliminate banding
  4. Font help please...

    Yeah! Pretty close atleast. I can atleast tweak and match from here. Thank you!
  5. Font help please...

    My client said this font was TIFFANY; I thought the font was CALVIN...we were both wrong. I know it's super easy, I've used it before, but rarely!
  6. Cutting down stickers

    Where do you get your blades? EBay? Mine are expensive!
  7. Cutting down stickers

    Awesome man, thank you for all that; especially setting the blade depth with folded vinyl...excellent idea! Soon as I get back to work, I'll give it a go! Btw, I usually do smaller orders of 100-500, anything over that I generally source out, not always.
  8. Cutting down stickers

    I use a Graphtec as well as a Mimaki CG (for my wider jobs), I've never been able to get either to cut PERF cuts well...what's your secret? Mine will generally track off somewhere or some will perf cut properly and others not all the way through...0.o
  9. What would you charge?

    I personally charge .10/sq in for calendared vinyl, Oracal 651. I charge $60 an hour and $25 setup fee. Between my sq in charge and setup, that covers my time on something that basic, and my waste. I charge a 1 hour minimum, so based on rough guesstimates from your pic, I'd be at the $150...

  12. Flexi Sign Prints Missing Colors

    I'm curious if there is a conflict between your color settings and whatever color conversion choice your printer is using to open your file. Does it look right on his end before printing? Rasterlink doesn't have the best preview, but good enough to see blocks of color missing.
  13. Suggestions Backlit

    I'm curious as well...we're in the same place. The one backlit I have done was just translucent over the face of clear acrylic; however, all of my research suggests you'd want to do that plus a mirrored image printed on clear perfectly registered with the face graphic, increasing the color...
  14. Cutting down stickers

    I'm with ya. I hand cut everything with a guillotine or straight edge and Olfa knife. I have tried Half Cut repeatedly with little success on my Mimaki. I always get the material bunching or pulling...if not, the half cut isn't substantial enough to remove the sticker... Ugh
  15. How to Enlarge shutterstock images for large wall murals

    Any suggestion as to where to download Perfect Resize? I found it on the softonic website; however, I'm leary about downloading anything that isn't proven safe (got an encryption virus once..screwed me over huge).
  16. New 5 Mil Grey Back Air Release!!

    I would be interested in sample rolls of the 5 mil permanent gloss white w/ grey back in both comply and air release. We've been looking for a worthwhile vinyl for stickers that is easier to handle and install than the IJ35c-10 (given it's thickness it's so flimsy and we don't like taking away...
  17. What is this half-cut option called?

    Do you know what your machine at work is called? Maybe a pic of it? I've got one of the "top-sheet cutters" but can't imagine cutting 1000! Lol
  18. Clear Application/Tranfer Tape?

    Use TransferRite I recently switched to TransferRite Ultra 1310 and won't use anything else anymore. It lays flat, tears clean, and applies super smooth. Contact Midwest Sign in Portland, OR -- tell them DropZone Specialties sent you...they have the best price by far!
