  1. 10x40 foot banner....what matieral

    What if you used the Lind sign springs? You can purchase just the springs, screw them into the wall and hook them through the banner, it would make the install quick, easy and perfectly flat.
  2. 10x40 foot banner....what matieral

    Is it a solid scrim material or mesh? Mush has a tiny bit of spring in it. Do you have photos of the existing install?
  3. Health Insurance though Texas Sign Association

    Oh I have one of those too! Lol
  4. Summa F1612 making larger panels than bed size

    Yes you can, the machine will cut everything within the working area of the table with the first bit, prompt you to change the bit, cut the second path, advance the table and have you switch the bit again, cut, switch repeat till done. Keep in mind with the summa, since the belt doesn't track...
  5. What do you consider "color matching"......?

    If both files were submitted together they should have at the very least called you and warned you of the potential issues. Having said that, a company that can't get 2 products they sell to be reasonably close in colour has no business calling themselves a trade printer.
  6. New Guy How to effectively run business which I've taken charge..

    You have to ask yourself why do you want to run this business? Your father seams to have had a good go of it and has now moved on to something else he enjoys. As someone who has also come on board a family business, take it from me, you need to sit down and have a good hard think about why...
  7. Anyone using Onyx in Windows and designing on a Mac?

    I second the Hot Folders solution, it's just a mapped network folder that you drop files into and it automatically starts ripping the file in Onyx according to the quickset selected.
  8. need referal for architectural post in Canada

    Thanks for that, I assumed there was a less expensive option, at that price I may as well use 4'x4' aluminum poles lol
  9. need referal for architectural post in Canada

    If you find something, let me know! I've been trying to find the basic PVC sleeves that slip over a wooden 4x4 that all the americans on here use, I can't find anything even close.
  10. Looking for Website Design & Cost

    With web design, it doesn't really need to be someone local, I can PM you the name of my guy up here in Canada, he uses wordpress, you host on your own server for no extra fee, and as an added bonus the US Dollar is worth $1.25 right now, so you are already getting a 25% discount lol. There...
  11. Looking for Website Design & Cost

    The local fastsigns has the standard site, it's pretty bad, Hard to navigate, and none of the images of work is actually work that shop did, they just use images from other fastsigns. To answer the original question, anticipate paying a professional around $700 -$1000 for a basic site. Or look...
  12. Robert's First Town Hall Meeting

    I agree, since we've locked the door due to covid I'm much more efficient! No more chatty Cathy's coming in to tell me the story behind the 1 yard sign they want. I can leave when I want, no more angry voice-mails in the morning " I came by at 4:59 and the door was locked!" Clients email...
  13. Price check... real estate sign

    A real estate agent will never pay that, they expect everyone to work for nothing while they make $20,000 to handle some paperwork.
  14. Office Depot has a large format printer? Good riddance.

    I'm just happy I could make you look good
  15. Office Depot has a large format printer? Good riddance.

    Who determines what an acceptable price is? If I need to charge $1200 to do a job, that's what I quote, the client is free to call 20 different shops and get 20 different quotes. Do you tell everyone who calls looking for a quote that they can get it done cheaper by someone else? I agree that...
  16. Office Depot has a large format printer? Good riddance.

    $1200 is not unreasonable at all if you had to rent a lift, around here for a 1 day scissor lift rental with delivery & pickup you are at almost $500, you have to pad that number a bit, say you charge the client $700 for the rental, $500 in labour isn't hard to get to, you need to pack your...
  17. What is wrong with S101 today?

    It's taking about 15 seconds per page to load for me today.
  18. Need Help Epson S80600 pausing while printing

    Yeah we have 2 laser engravers that connect via USB and nothing but issues with it, 16 foot maximum cable distance, the connection drops fairly often etc. USB is great for getting grandma's new desktop printer hooked up as its plug and play, but it's just not a reliable type of connection in a...
  19. Need Help Epson S80600 pausing while printing

    I would switch to ethernet and see if the problem goes away, USB has issues for production machinery, I've never been a fan of USB in the shop.
