Thanks FatCat! I sure wish I could hop out and buy one of those printers rightnow! Heck I wish I had that much business to need one.. You've been very helpful! Yeah I figured that's what did it.. I am still generally interested in knowing how much printers of this type(doesnt have to be this...

I must say.. I'm not buying one tomorrow, next week, or probably within the next year. I just had a few questions about these printers.. that's all. I like the L26500 so far as I can tell, and heck by time I get ready to buy one there may even be another new one out. Thanks for the info! PS...

Well I would like to do that.. I just don't know anyone who will print 1-2 posters/1-2 banners, 50 stickers, etc.. Do you, or any of you others know anyone who does this low volume stuff?

Thanks for the answers, CheapVehicleWrap... It definitely seems like one could make their money back fairly easy with one of these printers. It's awesome their is so many avenues from wraps, posters, candles, walls, floors, labels, signage, etc.. Anyone know about how much a used L26500 is?

Hey, I have just a few questions about these wide-format printers.. You don't always have to use the full width media, right? If you have a 60" you can print on 30", or 24"? How are these printing custom wallpapers, wine labels, cd covers, billboards, light shades, cande labels etc...

I see no image... Did you attach it?

What do you use to seal the edges?

haha I'm not really sure.. I guess I figured you were running back, and forth between the pc, and whatever else like me! I'm not near as busy as you probably are so...... :D

LOL! You're a dang interesting person! I never imagined you out in the shop on an ipad in a ziplock bag.. LOL! I appreciate you answering my questions even more now!

I thought so.. Just wanted to be sure... ;) LOL! It's actually pretty cool, imo!

What do you mean by "shell" it? (Do you mean just make it hollow?)

Charlie, Thank you for explaining that. I really, really appreciate the information, and motivation you've provided here, and on the phone. This type of stuff seems really fun, profitable, and fairly easy to do. I'm waiting to get paid for some vinyl letters I cut, and then I am headed to...

Hey Charlie, Thanks for replying. I'm getting more, and more excited about this foam stuff! I see you using those hotwire tools you showed me too! I do have one more ? How was it mounted? How strong is the styrospray? Did you just glue the coroplast to the foam, or use screws(if the...

Did you coat it with that styrospray before putting the wide-format printed print on it? (is the 2nd pic the styrospray?) How did you hollow out the inside?

Thanks again! I know you said something lastnight about them, but I had completely forgot. I'm going to order some, and it's not too bad a price.. :D

Well.. I'm kind of at a cross roads. I now know where to get EPS foam, and how to glue it together. I'm now wondering what I should use to make it smooth, and ready to paint. I know you can use water based paint to paint it, but I am just not wanting all kinds of tiny foam bubbles.. I'd rather...

I spoke with Charlie this evening.. I'm seriously excited to get started on making a dimensional sign. I'll be hitting the local hardware up in the next few days(or tomorrow)... Charlie sure made me feel a breeze of fresh air, and it's great to have someone so nice on here! Thanks Charlie for...

I'm really clueless, Roller. I'm a newbie, and never made a sign close to any of those. Could you kind of layout the process? Buy foam, depending upon needed depth stack it/glue it, and what? How do you get the foam baby butt smooth? Sand it? Like what are good cheap things to coat the foam to...

You use GatorHyde for these signs? Isn't that stuff pretty expensive? I wonder if real fiberglass is cheaper, or about the same as GatorHyde? Are there any other products you recommend to be able to have a smooth glass like finish ontop of foam?

Lol! Point taken.
