Currently, I cut my vinyl letters and border and then I also cut out a square the size of my blank, so when I weed out the square it leaves behind the vinyl I want on the substrate. Then all I do is slide the blank up against the square weeded out edge and drop the blank. Perfect!! Of course...

Actually we make novelty signs as well as MUTCD signs.

Thanks for the info Mike... Do you have a solvent printer or the UV printer?

I would like your thoughts about the Vutek 200/600. I have my eye on a couple used. One a 2004 one a 2006, both between $25,000 and $30,000 I have put traveling with a uv printer to festivals on the back burner. what I like about the Vutek, is it will allow me to expand the wooden sign...

Yeah, I have been told that a few times, but it is the cutting part that gets me. For one I would probably scratch the aluminum in a shearer (if I owned one), don't you think? Also, it would be more labor on my end. I kind of like getting them ready to go.

lol...keep in mind I have been doing this for over 10 years and it has taken a lot of sales and work to build up to this. As you know things do not happen overnight.

That is one of my sites that we sell through. yes.

They are one off customizable. I do get many orders for quantity of the same thing but most are one offs. Any thoughts?

One other deal. One of my suppliers was trying to talk me into buying a large latex printer but I asked him...how do I get the blanks lined up on the printed material?

I'll tell you what artbot...you seem to know what you are talking about so I would like to hear more. I have been selling my novelty signs for 10 years. I have been using vinyls up til now, so I would like to keep at least the quality of an average vinyl. Some of my customers might use these...

Good question. We sell about $30000-$60000 per month. We sell direct to consumer online, and to many retailers. We are also licensed for about 20 products with General Motors.

Sorry I was not very clear... Here is the small machine. I thought it would be nice to go to shows and print onto my aluminum blanks. By shows I mean festivals. That would be a huge advantage for me if I could use the machine at shows and festivals. The other machine is a Colorspan UVX...

How do you line it up on the blank?

Hi Bobby, do you print these onto aluminum or do you use vinyl? If you print, what type of printer do you use? Thanks

Hi Ken, could you give me some examples of Thermal printers? Are these flatbed?

Hello, I have a sign business and have been making street signs for almost 10 years...mostly novelty. I use aluminum blanks and vinyl since most are one offs and all are unique. Very few large runs. I recently bought some signs from several competitors and one of them it seems prints...
