it seems to be a part of their press release... I cant find anything on their website.
My onyx advantage ended March 26... press release was april 30 :mad: Going to E-mail them to inquire... I'll...
Ahh. That makes sense then. I wonder if you.need to be on advantage to get it... Think mine ran out a few months ago. Time to check! That's not bad then. Surprised it costs so much considering you.csn get onyx for cheaper than what they're charging for true nest
It should be built into onyx tbh. Flexi has it.... And it wouldn't surprise me if it was in the next version of onyx. I feel like they're just milking it.
Don't get me wrong, it looks awesome and has more features / options than flexi and other ones... And $3000 is nothing with material you...

Have you tried this? I've only used it a few times but it works pretty good for $25.
The only helping hand you need is a roll of double sided tape.... Far cheaper than paying someone even minimum wage.
A job like this including cleaning assuming it's relatively new would take maybe 3-4 hours.
It's called a corrogated surface. You can Google and find tons of guides... If you...
Ryzen is better than Intel right now. So go with a Ryzen... Maybe next gen intel will bounce back, but AMD is wiping the floors with them price wise right now.
Video card isnt too important - If you google what uses the GPU in photoshop / illustrator you'd be surprised. M2 SSD, good CPU, and...
Cmyk to pantone would be handy. Illustrator is a bit finicky with that.
For the above...adding custom spacing would be nice. IE. .25" spacing for a router bit, or 1/16 for a saw blade, etc.
You can't us mist if there's graphics on it. So you have to turn the mist off.... Otherwise it contaminates the glue. Not a problem when cutting a sheet or two, but if you're cutting tons of sheets it is.
Depending on the vinyl it'll gum up the bit. Using regular cast or vinyl doesn't seem to...
It's impossible to do everything though. If someone comes in wanting powder coated signs... Do you turn them.away? Or.if you're slammed and a customer needs a roll of.covid decals... Do you outsource it and keep your customer happy, or tell them you're too busy and look elsewhere?
Our shop is...
Depending on what you're doing... Most aluminum has some sort of oil on it before it even gets to your cutter. Traffic Signs especially need to be acid etched before application to be 3m certified.
I know you can buy some pre etched stuff... But it was quite a bit more pricey so we didn't...
Everyone tries to save a buck or two here. How many times have you guys changed your own heads or cap tops, or plunged your own toilet or built your own fence, etc?
I need a line sensor on my machine. I know the part is $50... but I got quoted $1100 for the repair. I said I'd do it myself...
http://proofs.groupimaging.com/GI/manual%20hp700/service%20manual.pdf a good manual to have. Use the first link step 2 to get into the service menu...then on page 182 it shows you diagrams on how to calibrate it
https://support.hp.com/ca-en/document/c04616912
Follow step 2. It tells you how to get into the service menu.
From there do a shutter calibration - To calibrate it... have one person standing next to them and tell you when theyre fully open / pointing down on one side...then calibrate the...
Theres a few factors that play into this.
How many decals are you ordering? If you're buying one decal that's 6" x 40" and theyre using 30" Media... then they're charging you for 30" x 40", not 6" x 40"... etc. You have to use up all the material to get a good price.
The most expensive...
The more expensive machines track better. If you're just cutting a few ft in length a cheap one will work.
If you're doing 5-10 vehicles it'll likely be cheaper to outsource than to buy your own machine.
Keep in mind you'll also need to premask these to put them on a vehicle... If you have...
It's possible to remember and care about more than one thing at once. Covid, overdoses, fires... 2020 is a terrible year with a lot happening. But it doesn't make what happened on 9/11 any less important.
9/11 didn't even affect Canada at all and we still feel it every year.
Does 3m not have stock?
I think I saw three tubs in our paint room while I was looking for 882 today. I don't normally do screen printing, so I'm not 100% sure.
I'm heading in tomorrow to do some work, If you can't find it elsewhere and want to pay shipping from Vancouver I can let one go for...
Speaking of plumbing. I just had a kitchen sink clog. 4 liters of draino.. nothing. went and bought a 25 FT ryobi snake... Snaked it... nothing.
Caved and called a plumber - He brought a snake... snaked it...said it must be something soft thats clogging it since he felt no resistance...and...
