R-Tape. Has a lot of uses in the shop. Taping graphics, Blocking out screens and covering shirt platens. We also steer clear of the clear.

Glad he was caught. We were broken into a few months ago. Alarm scared them off and nothing was taken. A few other businesses in the area weren't as lucky.

I don't know how many times I've had customers come in and balk at the price of mags or yard signs because they had just placed an ad in one of the local papers and didn't have the cash to pay. I always ask how much they paid and than tell them what they could have had for the same amount. I...

You hear folks on hear saying "you get what you paid for" all the time. My advice, since you're asking for it. Save and get one from a company you can call when you need parts or assistance. At some point you'll need a fuse or something for this.

Welcome Skyhawk... I agree with Auto. Find one of these guys to print the graphics for you. No reason to buy a roll if you only need a little.

I had a situation like this a few weeks ago, from another sign shop! Sent the artwork for decals. All ready and to size, right...wrong. Not only was the size wrong but there was some copy missing from it. Now we have done work for them in the past and had problems. So we e-mail proofs, call and...

The one's I work with are friendly. The others in town are neither. There's 3 sign shops we help out with dig. prints from time to time. A few times one or the other has stopped to see if we have something they might need to finish a job, if I have it I sell it to them just a little over cost...

Boosted, you've gotten a few good recommendations of where to start...for your own safety you may want to slowly back outta this thread now. Don't turn around, just back up slooowly. (and Welcome from NY, a little north of PA)

I'm with Flame, just re-print. If you go that route you might as well experiment and try printing on the already printed banner, you're not going to be out anything and who knows...you might just get lucky!

Very cool stuff

Perfect..thanks for bring this to my attention...I'll be getting no work done today as I'll spend it playing with my balls.

OP...looks good. If you don't mind that I make one suggestion. Place a 2x4 under the two that are supporting the substrate. As it is now, the weight of the substrate is on what ever is fastening (screws or nails) the two 2x4's to the one that has the rope attached to it.

He's not trying to cut a raster image. He's trying to contour cut it after it's been printed. I could help out if you were using Corel. We do these almost every day. I'm sure someone who uses Illy will chime in.

These people are getting desperate. I don't remember having these many call or stop by wanting me to buy something. I let them know that I've gotten this far in 10 years without them. Good day!

I don't know how that would work on a koozie. Does the customer want to be able to change out the photo? If not then I would recommend printing and heat apply on Solutions Opaque material. We do a lot of koozies this way.

I hate that!

Forgive me my ignorance but why can't a liquid lam be used on these? Just curious. I understand making them more rigid with roll lam., but is that the only reason?

Maybe he meant "small rocks"

We do a lot of fades on banner designs. Have never seen this (knock on wood), but we do 90% of our designs in Corel and export as an EPS

Already made the adjustment. Gotta love pricing software, one click and it's done.
