that sounds low, but even if you were able to pull that off, (I converted 5 of these about 15 years ago when the prices were cheaper and i couldn't touch that price) it still wouldn't be worth it. The daily maintenance required is silly, sure it will print, but you won't make money. I assume...

switched to latex about 8 years ago, I would rather have rusty nails driven up my fingernails on a daily basis rather than go back to solvent.

hope you didn't pay much for this, this is a path you don't want to walk down. been there done that, not worth it.

get a job at a place that does them and learn, anything else is dribble...

any cast without lamination will work, the key is to use thin material, calendared just wants to regain its original form so it pulls away from the valleys if there was a VOC problem you probably wouldn't have been able to give us those pics

without knowing if you were using the correct tools I would say it's either a stone or rebar. if it was rebar, put a regular bit in and see if you can cut into it. if that don't work, then it's a stone and your equipment isn't up to the task.

I remember my first job at a sign shop when my boss would flip me a $100 bill every once in a while and tell me thanks for doing a good job, don't tell anyone I gave this to you. I already had the work ethic, but getting noticed and rewarded for it made it good. Until I realized I could do...

when you purchased this used printer did you request a current sample of what the machine was printing like when you bought it? if not, I would assume you purchased a machine with heads that were poorly maintained and/or shot. It definitely looks to be out of alignment too.

If your looking for your workforce to be more proficient I would think a performance based bonus would be the incentive to get there. Giving everyone a share of the profit does nothing to give the people who are making your profit more profitable...

my busy season is Sept-March, I'm entering the time to work around the house phase of the year.

I used Hartford for about 20 years, can't remember why I dumped them, something stupid. I use Michigan Millers now. $1061.98 a year

tell them you can do it cheaper if you use HELVETICA and valu-CAL but it doesn't last more than a year

send along the crappiest jpeg you can muster and tell them that's all you have...

i don't think they were supposed to be different, i think the artist took artistic license...aka they were bad

I saw this pic and thought that can't be NT.... Those two stores are a throwback in time for sure, the liquor store is always locked with a buzzer that rings to the store and they walk over and let you in. sorry can't help with the font

I have a few signs up like this, they have been up for about 4 years and look like the day I put them there. Make sure you use exterior grade zip ties.

Chrome, but i'm getting ready to jettison it, it's become Microsoft hoggish

95% of what i print i just use the HP matte can profile, most of the artwork is all reprints of same art. this was a freak thing, has only happened one other time. i just turned on the old eco solvent ceiling exhaust system and it was cleared out in seconds.

just curious, are you using the "my friend is an idiot" kinda like "i'm asking for a friend?"

stupiest thing i ever saw. who in their right mind would park off to the side and work on a traffic light with on coming traffic. block the f'n road and do your job without fear. amazing what a couple of traffic cones and a flagmen can do for you.....
