Depending on what software you have you have. But as far as I know you need to do it in a vector software such as Illustrator, or corel. If you have Flexi you can also do it in there as well.

They make a dry erase lam. So you can print onto anything and just lam with dry-erase.

The USGS have vector maps.

There actually have been several. A guy on a city bus, a guy on a train, and a guy that decided to put one in his car. I think the guy that installed one in his car was from Florida.

We have a material we call Aconyl, it's a PVC. It's rigid, and will snap but only in one direction... also super cheap.

These are highly illegal to use. If you are caught using them it's federal charges. While I know that this a tongue in cheek comment, this is a horrible idea. I can not stress enough how bad of an idea using one of these is.

Try looking for a Topo map of the area. I know that at one point you used be able to download them from the USGS.

There are a few different things that you can try. You can use some primer around the edges, and 3MIJ180, use a heat gun and a soft roller to really get it in there. I've done this before and it works. You can also try looking at a convex material, I think that 3M now makes a low energy...

I think that the cell phone/social media issues are going to be an ongoing thing for years to come. I think that anytime safety is a concern, there should be a no cell phone rule. If a designer in a loud environment wants to put in some headphones and listen to music or podcast, I understand...

HP 570 & Graphtec 8600 I've done about 40' reflective with bomb site.

Have you talked to anyone about a replacement machine?

I don't think it was like that when he picked it up. It probably had a small scratch in it and he decided to use waste ink to cover the scratch. The solvent cleaner mixed in made the issue worse.

Why would you use the waste ink to try and cover it up? How long did you let the banner dry before you took it to the seamstress? Also unless it's a huge banner just re-print.

Not sure on Onyx, but in Flexi, I can set the margins to 0. My HP570 prints 1/4 inch from edge. So just account for that when setting up spacing.

Very important. If you want laminate afterwards switch to latex.

Well I have yet to deal with a Epson, but look at your market, your needs. Weigh the pro's and cons. Is speed an issue, is waiting for prints to out gas a concern, do you have proper ventilation, do you plan on expanding into other things? I think that if maintenance is an issue for you, look...

For me, the font is decided by the job. While I know it sounds a little tedious I have a basic idea of the look I'm going for, and I just open the font window or drop drop down and start browsing them. Since I already have an idea of what I'm looking for I can skim through them pretty fast...

Can you not just create a circle the size you need in Flexi with no fill or border, than assign it a contour cut?

Probably be better off doing a rubbing.
