We are promoting this Open House in many ways, one of which is mailing out a flyer. The flyer is finally done and at the printer, it should be mailed out by next week. I wanted to give the signs101 community a first look at it. We are hoping to have most if not all of the equipment listed in the flyer on our demo room floor for the open house.

I think the mailer is too large of a file, unfortunately it will not allow me to attached it to this post but you can view it at the link below.

We have started another project in our demo room to get ready for the Open House.

These tiles were printed on our Mutoh RJ900 and sublimated to the tiles. We will post more pictures next week with the finished project.

Tomorrow is the first day of GRS Open House. Attached are some pictures of the VJ-1626UH and also a video of the first print we ran off the printer. This print was done on a 3mil Gloss Vinyl. Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to make a video of it on rigid material yet.

Well the Open House is over. This was the biggest under taking we have ever attempted with the most equipment on the floor. We want to send a big thanks to all of our vendors for lending their knowledge and time. Mutoh, Flora, TVF, Catalina, Sihl, DAF, Graphics One, FosterKeencut, SAi, and Royal Sovereign. Thank you as well to all of our customers that came out and checked out all of the new products.

We also need to send a big thank you to the GRS staff for all of their hard work over the last couple of months to get everything done. Thank you Jack Keiling, Scott Riether, Krista Anderson, Alan Mendel, Brian Bulger, Craig Coviello, Brett Philipps and Mike Keiling. Without your effort Dave and I couldn't have pulled all of this off.

Sincerely,

Dave and Chris Philipps
