    A sign shop is just like any other business when it comes to customers and their expectations.They really don't care what your backlog is, a machine is broken or someone called in sick. They expect to get what they want or need. Like mentioned earlier..... some bloke walk-ins, send 'em off...

  6. VersaWorks unselectable option

    Not sure, but you already have 'high mode' selected. That should give you the best quality. Just make sure your media profile is correct.
  7. Don't know how to appraoch this..........................................................

    Understood, but we've been using kerosene heaters in the shops for about 30 some years. In all those years, no one died, however, we did have an employee who would get headaches while no one else had any symptoms. Thanks for the help.

  11. Clear plastic divider bar?

    Several times we bonded a clear piece down the back of one side, slide the next panel over and glue is on the site. We would cut the matching halves on a 45º angle so, as mentioned, no bright light shone between them. Not great, but it worked. Luckily, we were never called out to work on any...
  12. Don't know how to appraoch this..........................................................

    I don't really care too much about the outer shop, 8,800 sq ft. We can work in 50º, so 40 something isn't too bad. It's the computer room which is about 1,260 sq ft where all the computers and roland are located. I have tow torpedo heaters. Both run on kerosene. Together, they'll heat up...

  14. Don't know how to appraoch this..........................................................

    We have an sp540v.... an old guy, but works perfect. Our furnace went out 2 weeks ago and the guy is having trouble finding the gas ignitor for up inside the boiler or wherever. Therefore, the whole shop is kinda cold, but in the last few days, we can't get the room with that printer above...

  16. 3 Sign Shops Closed

    So, is it your shop or are you a glorified babysitter ?? The best people we ever had, were not burnt out ex-employees or stolen from other shops. We hired based upon their integrity, ability and if we could stand looking at each other.
  17. 3 Sign Shops Closed

    Signjockey...... do you really think hiring two girls from two separate failed shops is the thing to do ?? Any hint what the common denominator might be ?? Ya look for young blood which has talent.

  20. What material is this?

    Not sure. :bookworm Looks like a rigid lam over it, which normally you would not use on gold, unless it was cheap stuff, but the way it looks, it does look hand gilded. Regardless, you're not gonna be able to patch a few letters. Have them remove the entire area, re-shoot it and put your own...
