    I remember the first time my graphtec spoke japanese to me, lol. I had my last one set to give me inches instead of mm, haven't take the time in the last few years to do it with this one.

    Welcome
  4. How would you handle this situation?

    I would handle it the way I have for almost 40 years. The price is the price. I am not now nor have I ever been in business to be the cheapest in the market. I am also not the most expensive.
  5. Need Help Flex face

    I was going to post you a pic of the tool but it's been so long since I used it I can't put my hands on it. I believe I got it from signcomp as well as replacement clips. Basically it's a funky wrench for spinning the clips in and out to tension.
  6. Rant Has ANYONE ever heard of this mess................. ??

    Yep, just recently. One side of cab was hinged and the other slid from side. Luckily I checked both while doing survey. The hinged side was an absolute nightmare. Ended up having to totally remove it, repair it on ground an reinstall. You can believe when it needs service I will be going at it...
  7. Shirt re-order pricing

    I don't go to screen for less than 25 pieces. Anything smaller than that is heat press quantity and price is significantly higher.

  10. Need Help Window perf

    If laminated, I go dry. You can re-position fairly easy with lam. If not I do it wet to avoid any stretching/tearing and to be sure I can re-position. Never had a problem with adhesion afterwards. I install quite a bit of perf that I did not print as I have a nationwide company that I install...

  14. What Direction Do You Weed Your Cut Vinyl?

    Same in signlab, weed border . I will usually put one in the middle of very small text or in complex text. Right to left for font, left to right for #. All paragraph text gets weed borders between lines so text can be weeded quickly, easily and with minimal recuts.

    Phototex on interior. If not that brand fabric for sure.
  17. Need Help In need of a sign. lol

    Print, print, print. Not one mention of plotting vinyl. Your customers have asked for something that lasts years and years. That's not print. Composite panel ( not the thinnest they sell) with high performance vinyl cut on plotter. Or a variety of other substrates depending on job at hand...
