Thanks both of you. SignComp from 2B was the one I've used before, but thanks for the Ackland pointer - I knew there were some more out there. Need to go have my head checked.

Since it just took me 5 minutes to remember the post new thread button is in the top right corner of the site (and hence I couldn't find it) I'm pretty sure I'm just being dense in not being able to find this product, geez. Can anyone steer me in the right direction toward the interchangeable...

Forewarning this is a bit of an idle curiosity post. Someday, we are looking for a starter laminator that will handle 54”, possibly used, and I keep seeing these western magnum units floating around in pretty good shape. I’m usually pretty industrious in my research but can’t figure much info on...

Hmmm. Better get MAACO.

He is going to sign a liability waiver right? And he's not going to be a reputation problem when you're using your 10th type of chemical and it spontaneously combusts, right? Just a sensibility check-in. I know a little about Humble, and word of mouth travels fast among us east Texans...

Goodness, you are awesome. How in the world could you remember this thread and go to that kind of trouble!? Exactly the type of applications I was figuring there must be a case for. Thank you. What an awesome forum.

Yeah, I think you'd end up blowing that cinder block wall apart with all the anchoring you need to do, unless you fill it, and then that's not any fun either. Good miles on an SDS drill by the time you're done. I'd frame it with something, metal, wood, whatever, and connect that to the...

Could you just stick frame this with Trex? Drop 24" on center 2x4's (trex) into the concrete base with a top header to seal off the enclosure, and then overlay the Trex planking and EMCs on top of that? You need to cable this up inside anyway, right? Other option is you could still stick...

You have it receiving a DHCP address from your router so the DNS populates automatically, or did you manually assign an IP?

That's exactly what I'm thinking. I don't suspect I'd even have to worry about delamination, since they use these things in Phoenix and Dubai and high heat places, they probably have to be designed for a few hundred degrees. Don't have any delusions on my skill level here, but I'm thinking in...

I'm feeling particularly motivated to experiment. I'll post some results if we go down this road. As a concept, we're toying with the idea of doing some curved table top displays out of ACM, low volume, probably easier to find something at the trophy store or somewhere, but we also have a...

Ah no, my apologies I wasn't referring to corners and boxes, I meant to imply radius curvature like through a slip roller, creating a large arc, cylinders, etc. Tiny partial v-grooves might still be necessary, but that would be a huge pain. Wondering if anyone has tried bending like this in a...

Anyone ever try bending ACM with a slip roll or some other mechanism? I'm sure the spring back would be brutal, but curious if it would even bend (without wrinkling) with the composite core. Seems like this would add some unique shape opportunities.

Hoping Frank W or someone with experience can help get us noobs started. Been using a new HP Latex 115 P&C that BigfishDM set us up with for a few weeks now. The printer is great, but we haven't been able to move beyond direct cut with the cutter (e.g. into barcodes). We're printing legit...

Haha. I wish, I’d keep the trailer! Sent him away and told him to come back because he was supposed to call ahead. But I’m liking the flatbed idea. We have some connections and could get one cheap. Probably $45.
