  1. All it's missing is the circus music...

    I love how CNN puts all the blame on trump when they were both pulling the same crap on eachother :eek:
  2. All it's missing is the circus music...

    No kidding. A president should be civil... respectful, charismatic, and a Leader. Neither side has shown that so far! If I were the moderator, I would have walked out in the first 30 minutes... can't believe how much patience he has!
  3. Suggestions Want to automate our manual sheet layouts somehow

    True shape nesting would mess up his flute direction. I think he just needs to use whatever rip / software that came with his cutter to nest, while turning rotate off... Should be simple.enough, but not familiar with that cutter. Also sounds like op is using web software to make print ready...
  4. Scary Thing about Ransomware

    There is way too much to learn, and way too little time though. And it's different... The generation that grew up with computers tend to pick it up a lot more than the generation that didn't use them in their daily life. For most, e-mails and artwork is all they use their PC's for. Learning...
  5. Scary Thing about Ransomware

    Well.. I think we can agree you understand more than the average person :D Were a shop of about 30-40 people. Before I came along they paid $1600 a month for IT. They also paid $300 to bring someone in to setup email for each users cell phone..... Because no one knew how :confused: When I...
  6. Scary Thing about Ransomware

    We use fortinet firewall at our shop. Also keep in mind most of the good firewalls charge for upgrades... I believe we pay $600ish a year to get updates sent out. Another expense I don't think most shops need... Don't get me wrong, I'm AL about security. But the cost of a good firewall, good...
  7. Cutting a 54" roll of laminate into smaller rolls

    Most distributors will cut it for you. Usually it's $5-10 a cut.. Free if you have a good relationship with them / buy it from them. You can do it yourself with a chopsaw or bandsaw, but it's not as nice or clean or a cut
  8. I need some HIP reflective

    It'd pribably take a week to get to you, and shipping would probably be $20 alone... but if you can't find any other option, shoot me a message. I'm in canada, so not the best option if you have others... but we use 3M HIP daily, so all of that is in our stock.
  9. Suggestions Cloud Storage? Do you use it?

    Google drive... Unlimited data for $10 (50 if you want to do it properly with the 5 accounts Google says is needed for unlimited...but I have it on good authority they don't care if you use 1 acct) or how mu h data you use ;) For 99% of.people this is sufficient enough to backup to. It's not a...
  10. Need Help Tab feature for routing PVC letters on Colex Sharpcut?

    We used to double sided tape small stuff in our multicam. The we found out by accident premasking it makes it have a much higher hold down than with no premask.... So not for small stuff we just slap down some premask on the back and suction is usually good enough to hold it down, and it's much...
  11. Free color conversion tool from FireSprint.com

    How often do you guys actually use the CMYK values from a pantone to get a color match? I usually scan the pantone book, input the LAB Values into onyx... and print a swatch. 7/10 times the scanned value is a close enough match, 2/10 times it's within the swatches onyx picks... and 1/10 times I...
  12. How Low Do You Let Your Inks Get?

    Question for you... Very rarely has it happened, but I can think of twice now when I let it run to 0, and it ends up killing the head. Usually on the light heads, or magenta... I just had a head that was just swapped and working fine... It had about 130 ML through it, the ink ran out...I put a...
  13. Discussion Not sure I'm thinking correctly.........................

    Another "Maybe" option is after hours / weekend work... and upcharge quite a bit for it. We do a lot of work for the hospital, they re-wrap their shuttle bus every 3-6 months depending on what campaign theyre running. They can't do it during regular hours because it's in use picking people...
  14. Discussion Not sure I'm thinking correctly.........................

    This is why we tell most of our fleet people they need to leave the vehicle overnight. Then if they dont show... not much of an issue. If they do... we clear a spot for the vehicle and put it in. We use rain as an excuse... We use we're really busy and can fit them inbetween jobs... Vehicles...
  15. Just an observation...

    I've seen a few females get torn into on here. It doesn't matter male or female... Generally if you ask an absurd question or don't belong here... Most members won't be afraid to point that out. It may be said in a bit of a more polite way, but they still get told the same thing. Equal rights...
  16. Need Help HP Latex 360 with bulk

    If it makes you feel better I needed a new line sensor too. I know there $50 and easy to install... So I emailed our usual tech and asked to order one. He confirmed it was $57.... Said he'd get it shipped to me. Head office sends a bill for $1100... I ask if they ordered.the wrong part...
  17. Question Zoom and the sign maker - my question - is there anyone that is already using Zoom?

    I don't want to join the bandwagon and go against threads like this. Usually I just skip them and don't participate... But it seems they're happening more and more. So my question is has anything beneficial come from one of your surveys or participation threads? I feel like at least for the...
  18. New PC Specs i would need for Adobe Design Software

    No business should go with an eco system theyre not familiar with. We always tell people who own fleets and want to buy their own vinyl cutter to save a few bucks, stick with what theyre good at... their time is better spent driving sales and making proffit that way... The same can be said...
  19. Decent Grommet Machine and supplies to buy???

    I had a cheap $100 Amazon one for my house (Work has a pneumatic) I had to put so much elbow grease into grommeting anything...all my weight. I hated using it, but for the odd banner I do at home I needed one. One day when I was doing a banner It snapped in half... so I bought one from...
  20. Best Software or plugin for artwork nesting

    Yep. They reached out to me already (Quick support) And said its a standalone product.... Their website wording is different and specifically mentions a license purchase. Said it's a $2000 purchase for onyx products ONYX TruFit Software Availability ONYX TruFit covers the entire product...
