    "Clean Cut Blade manufacture Mimaki compatible plotter blades in the USA from US made, high grade carbide steel blanks." but " Mimaki MIMI-0001 £16.70 " They don't have a US site to sell from?
  2. Brass plaque

    From Gemini as a one piece, that would be a cast plaque. But the background of the sign in your photo doesn't look like a cast plaque. it looks like polished brass letters and logo mounted on a painted background, installed in a polished brass frame.
  3. Temporary coverage

    As long as it's not a perforated vinyl wrap on the window, Glass Apeel would probably be a good material to print on.
  4. Hand painted signage pricing question

    I think you can price it like buying banners online. Just add 25% to the cost of materials.
  5. A Question on Gemini

    He said he wasn't a sign shop, like you are. He just makes letters and sells them to sign shops.
  6. Need ideas for 69 Camaro wrap

    The tricky part is the c pillar. Take a look at pictures of Camaros that have a vinyl top and consider following a similar line to two-tone it. Or add a gloss accent that hides the seam. Or make the seam at the top of the c pillar and create something like a Mini of Ford Flex idea.
  7. Banners, windows, shirts etc. for franchises like "Pruvit" "31" "Tupperware" etc.

    Usually with companies like these, the franchisee has to get the approved logos, you have to be set up as an approved vendor, and then everything has to be approved by corporate before you produce it. With some companies, once you are approved as a vendor they send you the logos along with a 500...

    The white cartridge holds less ink than the other cartridges.
  10. gemini????

    Even if they didn't lay anyone off, they most likely in the same boat as everyone else. After the extended lockdowns and stay at home orders they had in their states where they operate, people didn't come back to work.

    Not a font
  12. New Graphtec 9000 Not Ready to go Out of the Box!

    What adjusting are you talking about? You just position the sensor over the first corner and click cut in your RIP.
  13. NIX Pro, Color Muse ?

    I have a Nix. It works relatively well. It's really good at picking paint colors and telling you the name of the color or a closely matching vinyl. Moderately good at giving you a color to start with when trying to color match for digital printing. Definitely not perfect.
  14. FastSigns and Signs365 and Gemini

    Trying to get business by racing other people to mark things up less and less is what's killing what's left of the sign profession. So is considering that "I didn't do anything but a half hour of layout and uploading so I'll just make $50 on this order for $1000 of banners". Owners of retail...
  15. If you forget the premask

    There's another way to forget application tape. We did some prints for another shop that were print/cut to go on an electric sign face. We used clear plastic application tape for easier registration. Their installer went out and put them up in the field. A couple of months later I got a phone...
  16. Matte or Gloss overlaminate for longevity

    Gloss will rinse cleaner in rain. On a car, matte wears out when rubbed and turns shiny.
  17. This is for anyone who screwed up lately...

    Calendared vinyl. The funny thing is the inconsistency. The first picture they star cut the vinyl over the screw but forgot to cut around the screw. Then one of the others they tried to wrap over it (with predictable results).
  18. Any tricks for centering graphics on T-shirt heat transfers?

    T-shirts are never truly straight and square anyway. You cannot measure them to determine an acceptable placement for the graphic. It's kind of like putting an advertising graphic on the side of a curvy car or truck.
  19. Suggestions Wholesale screen print T-Shirts

    Right now is a hard time to find them. The pandemic wasn't kind to screenprint wholesalers.
  20. Printing Individual Sheet on an Epson s40600

    You cannot turn off the roll backtension check. If you have a short piece of material to print, you have to tape it to the end of a roll of something the same size (kind of like when you get a roll of cut vinyl that has been spliced)
