can you call them and have them ship all orders on YOUR UPS account from now on? we have a few suppliers who charge much more than shipping is worth, the solution was to give them our account number and have them send it that way.

but seriously, depending on what you are getting done, shipping may kill you. I would also check out local cabinet shops.

That does seem a bit excessive, I don't care if you sit, stand or hang from the ceiling, as long as you get the job done. That being said, a shop I used to work at was experiencing some growing pains and the boss kept coming up with silly rules like this that he thought would make up for his...

yeah make sure you keep us updated!

funny how they never called you about the errors. whenever we get an error in an order, we make sure to call the supplier first and figure it out, in fact i'm sure that's how 99.99% of businesses would handle this issue.

prime example of more money than brains, sorry they are well done, but 2 mil is just stupid

We make similar decals for a local big rig mechanic, he does the same thing, sticks them in door jambs and under the hood, very greasy locations and static cling wouldn't stick. We print these on our gerber edge on Oracal 651 vinyl, no laminate, they use a fine point sharpie marker to write on...

You can't please everybody! it's too bad, the first design posted looked great! the revised one is pretty sweet as well though, either way the customer is getting a hell of a wrap!

we've had good luck with the avery MPI 2111 wall film, prints beautifully and cheaper than phototex

Oh boy, another guy in Toronto with a printer in his basement, who doesn't consider having any expenses! There are hundreds if not thousands of people with this same mentality in this area. The going rate for printed vinyl is barely enough to cover the cost of the vinyl, let alone any thing...

Phillip: I would go with acrylic or polycarbonate, 3/8" thick, but use 6 stand-offs to support the centre of the panel.

not a chance, good rule of thumb is to expect the print to last the life of the shortest rated product, up to a max of about 5 years.

We have a Trotec laser (made in Austria) and the service guy from the company told us about a local architect that bought a chinese laser off ebay to cut out foam board for making 3D models of his buildings. The machine comes with a 10 Gallon bucket that you are meant to fill with water and put...

I told him that since he is now a competitor, I will be billing him for "consultation" at $300 an hour, starting immediately. Let left in a hurry

We quoted a welded aluminum hanging sign for a customer once, he came back a few weeks later with a list of my costs for the materials (no idea how he got a hold of this) and told me he needed a better price because he knew how much I was "ripping him off".

It's 5 o'clock somewhere...

pics of the finished product?

Hey I got paid, the customer was happy.

I have local university students send me research posters to be printed all the time that they created in powerpoint, he should be able to save them as a pdf or tiff file for you, if not you should be able to using one of the many "print to pdf" programs out there.

While there is no standard size, the most popular size we do here is 3'x8'
