  1. Summa F bed size question

    It would be faster yes, with our 1612, once it has finished cutting a segment, it takes about 45 -60 seconds to turn off the vacuum, advance the media, turn the vacuum back on and read the next batch of crop marks and start cutting again, with a larger bed it doesn't have to do this as often. I...

  8. Ceramic Coating Removal

    people pay upwards of $1000 to get their cars ceramic coated, i would tell the client to take it to a body shop or detail shop to have them remove it, them you can apply the decals, 100% not worth the potential for messing it up for a $200 decal job
  9. Covid Sick Time?

    yes exactly. the 24 hour news cycles mean that news companies are constantly looking for cr@p to fill the air with/ publish on their sites, in order to do that, some news companies will lower their standards of journalism to get there, kind of like how I lower my pricing if I really need the work.

  15. What's the big secret with the channel letter industry?

    I agree with the above, we used to try to get a piece of anything that we could, but about 5 years ago we made a firm decision, if we don't either make it or install it we don't want to do it. Relying on subs and vendors will bite you in the ass, Imagine this situation: Client comes to you for...
  16. Oh, I really went and did it now! In serious need of help or suggestions.

    Yes we've done this before, also 3 in 1 oil works well too, it will eventually dry out and the issue will return, but it can be reapplied by the client while you remind him that they wanted to cheap out and reuse the letters....

    I don;t know the number of unvaccinated kids no. I'm sure the doctor could run tests on your sick kids and determine exactly what strain of virus they had, however who's going to pay for that testing, and why bother?
