  1. Credit Card Companies

    absorbing the fee seems reasonable for smaller sales, but what do you do on jobs that are 5-10k? We just require a check or a bank transfer or ACH payment. Not sure if there is a better no or low fee option.
  2. Accu-Bend Model 26

    Sorry my knowledge of the accubend only goes so far and it is all 2nd hand. Accubend might require Enroute and I believe it doesn't like very many nodes so that is done by having a larger tolerance in the arc fitting programs to reduce nodes as much as possible.
  3. Accu-Bend Model 26

    I'm sorry you have the misfortune to try and make an Accubend kick out a letter. They need dxf files. You can use ECUT SOFTWARE to export a dxf file from corel draw. http://eng.e-cut.ru/ I use vectric software which is fantastic but may be more expensive. Enroute also works and I...

  13. One-step away from buying a channel letter bending machine.

    Just ran a drill bit half way through my thumb today. Kind of hard to type. Kind of wishing I had a machine that could do rivet holes on the seams right about now.....
  14. How is this made

    Won't know until you open it up. I'd guess 2" angles around border with adhesive to aluminum face and L brackets holding it to a backer of some sort.
  15. One-step away from buying a channel letter bending machine.

    It recognizes holes for the rivet feature. The drain hole feature is different and needs to be added manually at node locations. I'd double check with the techs because I'm a little dated now on the SXP machines and I own a different SDS machine. There is a difference between drain holes...
  16. One-step away from buying a channel letter bending machine.

    Best to give them a call and have them walk you through it-- they have great tech support, but both Enroute and Vectric Vcarve (my favorite) have features that will copy shapes along vector. So what you do is inset your channel letter vector file half the size of the flange which is usually...
