This is really disappointing to hear, as I too saw some YouTube videos and have some experience with FDM 3D printing on a smaller scale, I got rather excited at the idea of being able to produce professional looking colorful, LED signs using something I already know and use (3D printing). In...

Thanks for the great info! Unfortunately in this scenario, the business owner is my little sister! So I have a deep brotherly obligation to try to help her out as much as possible. I will call the city tomorrow and ask (or do you think I should I GO there in person to inquire?) Thanks!

I've owned a little commercial sign company for 15 years, but I've always focused on small cut decals and inkjet signs, decals, banners etc. My sister recently bought her own business and I need to help her reface her sign. Since I've never taken on a job like this before I have no idea what...

Are my language settings for the website or chrome messed up or something? Or are a bunch of these replies in a totally different language?

This is good advise. I would add, don't fall into the trap of buying an old and/or used printer, or a cheap, chinese printer! Both cases are going to end up costing you a ton of money to get (and keep) them working. If you really want to buy a printer and you're on a budget, I would...

I'm talking about the expanding core "flange wheels" that press into the ends of a roll of inkjet vinyl to hold it up/off the media rollers. I finally broke one of the the OEM Roland ones that came with my printer, and I'm in need of some replacements. I'd prefer to not have to spend...

As everyone else has alread pointed out, there appears to be shortages on different types of vinyl across the board! And as such, I had to resort to buying a 60" roll of some vinyl that I needed to complete an important job. I bought a 60" roll with the intentions of cutting it in half and...

Would you mind sharing more detailed/hi-res photos? I've been kicking around the idea of scaling up and building off the design of the cutter I've already got, and I'd love to see how you tackled it up close. Thanks!

To clarify, yes, I still have mine. It's the small model that doesn't use olfa / snap-off blades, it just has a delrin fixed razor blade holder that accepts the flat rectangular blades that have a square hole in them. The reason I was asking what happened to the company is because I'd like...

Wow, you're AWESOME. :) Thank you!

Note: Sorry for the bad quality photo, it's the only one I could find of the cutter and it was sitting in the background, so I had to crop everything else out and zoom in on the cutter. Does anyone remember this cutter? I believe it was called a "linear cutter" or "linear slicer" The first...

This is EXACTLY what I was going to suggest, but instead of really strong magnets, I was thinking just stick strips of 3/16" 409 (magnetic) stainless steel to the inside of the door skin (horizontally) using a product like 3M 467MP.

I got tired of having to use a headlamp or hold a flashlight to see calibration prints etc, so I bought a cheap set of self-stick, low-voltage, LED strip-lighting meant for under-cabinet installation, I removed the top panels of my Roland XC-540, set them upside down on my workbench, and I...

Thank you for the good info!

Ugg. Like a dummy, I was moving the dampers around and I heard the sound you never want to hear (CRACK), and the damper on my BRAND NEW black DX4 printhead went loose. I quickly found out that I had snapped the plastic nipple off inside the damper! So in a panic, I grabbed one of the old...
