Stacey, unfortunately the mental strain will always be there but if it makes you feel better that will be where ever you work or whatever business you own. i will say being healthy physically helps your mental health as well. it still can be annoying but if you are busy then you can tell the...

at 53 i have always been active whether in my job or extra curricular activities so i do have my share of injuries in my history. (back injuries/surgery, shoulder tears, quad tear, hernias, breaks/dislocations......) you definitely need to take care of injuries so they don't get worse but you...

that definitely seems out of the ordinary. we recently did some back-lit signs with 1/4" polycarb 12ft and 24ft lengths all came rolled up with no issues. i think you would need some extreme circumstances to get it to snap like that

thanks for all the input

so for those who use a thicker vinyl with no lam, what do you squeegee with? no issues with the print scratching?

normally when i do a wall wrap i use 3M IJ180Cv3 and have no issues but sometimes customers request removable vinyl and i recommend against it because in my experience removable never sticks great whether it's because of the temp changes in the area or compatibility with the paint or what ever...

we recently demo'd the roland LG and looked pretty solid. we currently have the LEJ we are looking to replace. the LEJ was great and owes us nothing. definitely a work horse but slow as hell. the LG is faster, also has cut option which is great and has new color combos available. don't really...

tired of Adobe Illustrator? :oops: :roflmao:

polycarbonate or aluminum will work fine and hold up

is this for indoor use or outdoor? if it's indoor then that poster stand would probably work ok, don't have any wind to knock it over. if it's out door maybe it will still work but have to test it out, might have to build some sort of extensions on the base so it won't tip

well at least there is still a chance :notworthy:

2007 stumbled across the site doing a google search for some info and signed up right away. although my attendance has dropped off a little the past few years i have always found the 101 group both helpful and humorous. hopefully i have contributed enough to balance out the help i have received...

33 yrs and we have made mesh banners for one customer about 6 yrs ago but i have plenty of material left if someone wants a mesh banner let me know :oops::rolleyes::roflmao:

ladders and the scaffolding kill my back and legs. this business is becoming a young person's game. i am constantly climbing around like a monkey doing installations. i enjoy doing it and fortunately i am healthy enough to keep doing it but the past few months i have been climbing around on boom...

we always try to wait 24 hours if we can but on many occasions we have gone a couple hours to right off the printer to the laminator. can't say we ever had an issue. i will say the new roland printers are slow so if you find speed of the printer to be a requirement you might want to look else...

we have always used both fed ex and ups. don't want to put all your eggs in one basket. also we have some customers give us their accounts to ship under so they can pay their negotiated rates. we do that as well with some of our venders. the other thing is each company has their strengths and...

uv ink doesn't bite in to the plastic like solvent inks do. we silk screen a lot of coro and we have to use a catalyst in the ink so it sticks good. we have a roland LEJ, EFI and fugi acuity, the roland uv ink sticks the best of the 3 and the fugi is the worst but if you are aggressive with the...
