  1. Hello from germany

    Welcome from Minnesota. We had a German fellow in the sign camp in Indiana last summer who is very knowledgable. I will see if I can find his name- I think he was from Bavaria? BTW your english is better than most here. Gene
  2. 4th grade level question about hard drive ghosting.

    I clone all of my system drives with True Image- very easy and if a drive fails or becomes badly compromised I can have the puter back up in 10 minutes. I use all Dell Optiplex puters and have even switched system drives from other puters successfully.
  3. Font ID please

    Thanks- it is close enough- the '1' has spurs on the bottom but it is closer than I had. Gene
  4. Font ID please

    This looks familiar but I find numbers hard to id. Thanks Gene
  5. Grommet Machine Question

    On ours the upper die slowly peens over to the point where the cut out pcs of vinyl etc. jamb in there and then you cannot compress the grommet all the way. Tip it over and look. Gene
  6. ??? Franchise Pricing ???

    And they are paying about 8% off the top to SAR (at least that was what it was 16 years ago when I talked to them extensively before starting my own shop without them). :covereyes:
  7. Sign I am making for myself

  9. First Made-in-America Smartphone

    Wall Street thanks you.
  10. Gold Sign paint?

    I *think* that the Rustoleum gold is a different gold than the ModernMasters gold that we used at Robs. We have some of the former (also from Menards) and it isn't the same. Gene
  11. Weight of printed 180C with 8519 laminate - no liner

    We have a customer who campaigns a pro dragster nationally- they wrap their body because it is lighter than paint. We just patched the vinyl on the body from a engine that turned grenade.
  12. Roland Spot colors- is it possible to print PR 35K?

    PR 35K is 100% magenta but it is also the cutline 'color'. Thanks Gene
  13. Looking to pay someone for help

    Learning the software is hard- but you don't learn anything by doing what you already know. I can remember grinding away at a logo for hours that I could do in 5 min now. It is the grinding and frustration that teaches us.
  14. Why do people try to haggle with sign shops?

    Simple solution. No. Once had a customer tell me that 'I never take no for an answer'. I said 'Sure you do- I just told you no'. He still comes in but he talks to my daughter. Mission Accomplished- ©GWB
  15. ShopBot Buddy 32

    I am replacing my SBB with another shopbot- so it needs a home. I can of course supply picts and info if you are interested. I is a 2007 model and a standard with a PC router. I have been having a lot of fun with it and it is a good machine and well sorted out. I am looking for about $7k. PM...
  16. My new (old) SBot 4x4

    I am working on a 2006 SB 4x8 that was converted to a 4x4 that I bought from Boston. Shipping went well and I see no damage. This will replace my SB Buddy 32" and will fit where I need it to until I find more space for my new company- 3D SignCraft. I am having a ball with both CNCs and am...
  17. Take Up Reels

    I used to tape 24 and 30 inch cores together when I first got the 54" printer. Now I cut 54" cores into 24 and 30 so that NGlantz will take them. Gene
  18. What does a graphic designer do?

    They send out files to lower class life forms that DO NOT HAVE THE TEXT/STROKES CONVERTED TO OUTLINES
  19. Moving the dots

    What printer are you using- I didn't see a Roland in your profile?
  20. Moving the dots

    On my VP540 I can move the right hand roller in 4" which will crowd the reg marks to the left. I posted a year or so ago how to set the GX500 up to cut a bit wider also. Gene
