  1. looking for an acrylic bending machine

    We've had good success routing a groove in the back then giving it a shot of heat from torch or heat gun then bend over the edge of a bench in a pinch. (With 3mm pvc)
  2. looking for an acrylic bending machine

    Nice setup Gino! Used to love making jigs for different projects when I first started working for my dad. Your workbench brings back a lot of memories.
  3. I am well informed now

    1. Unpack components, compare with the bill of materials. 2. Verify all parts are present. 3. Call it a day and crack a beer
  4. Forex cutout with Summa F

    I wouldn't worry about harming the tool or blade, I'd be more worried about how detailed your cuts need to be. Multi-pass with Heavy Duty blade will cut up to 6mm PVC fairly cleanly, just make sure your overcuts and lift angles are adjusted properly.
  5. what material is this?

    Right?

  7. Printing white ink around Summa registration marks on black substrate for Summa cutter?

    You could manually create crop marks in Corel/Illustrator and assign Spot1 to those, or just lay down some white vinyl for the marks to print on. Otherwise, can you create a custom camera profile and just adjust the threshold/contrast so it picks up the marks?
  8. Reverse registration/crop marks?

    If I understand the OP correctly, he's not laminating. So his marks would be buried on the inside of the core. To the OP - I don't think (In versaworks anyways) there is a way to solve this. If you were using an aftermarket RIP (like Onyx) you could rotate the cut file afterwards but no...
  9. Brand New truck with mixed and matched aluminum and steel panel?

    Ouch, that's no fun after only 3k miles. I've been looking at the new Suburbans and Tahoes, considering moving to that once my lease is up on F150. More room for kids and gear, but would hate to give up the box for work stuff. I finally got a Lariat after always getting XLT's (I really...
  10. Getting paid from customer using bank ACH method

    You would think.... We have lots of customers that pay this way and it stills falls under their "we only run payments on every other blue moon etc." excuse. :rolleyes:
  11. Brand New truck with mixed and matched aluminum and steel panel?

    Could be, those Titans are fugly too. Too bad they can't figure out how to make a nice Tundra. I've always liked the Tacomas but I don't mess with girl trucks. If the Tundra was just a bigger/beefier version of the Tacoma I'm sure it would be a hit. Now it just looks like a Silverado had...
  12. Whats vinyl is used on boats and marine things?

    Gerber 220 for boat numbers here.
  13. Brand New truck with mixed and matched aluminum and steel panel?

    Their designers must be working out of a basement somewhere.....new Tundras look like absolute crap.
  14. Roland VW-S1 Colour Match Tool - Looking for reviews

    Cool, I hadn't seen those. Price point is nice, but I'd be curious to see how it performs vs. other high-priced/quality equipment.
  15. Roland XC-540 possible bearing problem, grinding

    Judging the condition of that poor thing I don't blame it for breaking down. It's hard to believe how it could possibly be working perfectly. That thing needs some serious loving! (And a new filter surge mist pad) Sorry, not helpful I know. Have you considered replacing the scan motor?
  16. ACM for parking signs

    We use 3mm acm for parking signs all day long. Not worth the extra cost/hassle of using aluminum. .080 definitely makes a rock solid parking sign but overkill in my opinion. I'd probably be more inclined to use aluminum if we could cut in house, I just don't like having to outsource blanks...
  17. Help with retreiving vehicle dimensions

    If you're using an actual vector template, then scale should be indicated in the file. (I still don't trust these 100%) If you're using pictures of the actual vehicle (my preference), take a few measurements (doors, tailgate etc.) for reference then bring in pictures and scale up accordingly...
  18. Roland DGA

    Sorry to hear about your troubles. Keep pushing your dealer - threaten them with legal action if you have to. They should be your ally when dealing with the manufacturer and if they're not then they're not doing their job. Hope you get things sorted out, those new Roland printers sound like...
