It's just something I was taught when my father got into UV screen printing. He had a big extractor that vented the fumes outside. I only remember the distinct weird sweet smell it had but I'm sure Google has plenty of info.

The problem? You'd need liquor to kiss any of that.

I was always told the ozone given off from uv curing is really bad for you.

Don't let the boss find them.

Sounds like you got soft sitting at that computer all day

Yup, that's pretty much industry standard. We over and short but charge according to what they get. If it's a mistake or an overrun for the just in case factor then we usually give them the extras.

That's bit me more than once.

What's the red outline? Contour cut laminate that extends past the edges?

Sign Comp. Check Eastern Metals if they service your area. Proper 2 part panel bonding adhesive should work too, don't cheap out with JB weld or something like that.

Convert the font to curves. I've had this happen on other cutters. Check the letter that's giving you issues after that to double check

We just got ours cutting but that is they way we have had to do it as well. Design in Corel, set the reg marks, send the print file out, ungroup everything, copy and paste the cut contour to the top, keep those and the reg marks and delete the rest. If we send any part of the file besides the...

It's like fill in work to keep the shop at full capacity. You don't have to kill it, the other work has already covered your sunk costs. You can pay labor to work slower or do nothing or cover their slack cost with work. More billable hours per week will lower you O/H cost on a per hour, per...

I get where you're coming from now. We take a similar approach with certain jobs for the same reason.

I know you know your business but that seems really cheap to me. You have to include transfer tape which costs about as much as the roll of vinyl, then packaging time, time to print shipping labels and the cost of packaging materials which aren't real cheap either. All that for $3.20/sqft...

I guess with barcodes it wouldn't matter what the name was since it is all auto, wasn't really thinking there.

We made some 40'x8' with 18oz with only hemmed the ends (with banner tape) like solventinkjet said but grommetted all the way around. The grommets haven't pulled out of them even after a couple of years of being up year round.

Do you output the cut file from Onyx to a staging/hot folder for the cuts? Dumb question, does it name the cut file because using the corel plugin with gosign, it outputs it as "output.plt" which requires another step of opening the folder and renaming it which is annoying. Unless I am doing...

Hot glue and strips of doorskin would make for a quick and accurate template that would look good as long as you could use a jig saw.

Will it do summa barcodes? The whole Thrive upgrade sales pitch at the bottom makes me nervous. If this will do everything needed, what's the need for Thrive?

I read a different thread where CanuckSigns mentioned that it doesn't come with a cut server. I believe the Epson comes with gamma print but I can't figure out all the ins and outs of what Onyx actually has
