  1. Wow, Check out this estimate

    If it was for one unit it would not have been to hard to see their final price. It hurts having to compete with offers like that for sure. But those type of companies do not last long. I hope they quickly see that they are going to limit their chances for success in a large way having pricing...
  2. gemini 0.25" metal spacers

    Good stuff... We do a lot of halo lit signage in the form of logos. It's been on the list to look into new options for spacers. I will check that company out...thanks for posting.
  3. Should Gino be brought back?

    Yes. If he broke a rule that got a perma ban then that seems odd. He has knowledge that can help others. Not every post from him is negative and I've seen some baiting at time as well from others. It seems there are some love/hate circles here that seem to lead to post getting away from...
  4. Remote Mounted Reverse Channel Letters

    The new font looks far better than their previous for sure. I love halo lit letters and logos. Good work...clean, stylish, and the design fits the project type! What font did you use?
  5. New aluminum big sqeegee= wow!

    We love it and we will buy more of them. I was not sure how easily it would work or the best approach to use with it. We used it for floor graphics on a basketball court. The graphics were about 10'x10' in 3 sections. It took longer to line up the panels than it did to apply the graphics. I...
  6. Suggestions 3MIJ40c - 8508 Gloss Lamination

    I have not tried the 8048, but I soon will now. Thanks.
  7. Matte Poster Paper for Latex is HERE!

    What are you guys using for the profile settings. I realize that they will be different based on conditions. I'm just curious to the profile settings for your printer. We went with 70% / 6 Pass / 178 temp...non-coated paper for the profile. What pound paper is this media? I really like the...
  8. Workflow software

    Looking forward to the responses in this thread. We use SignTracker basically just to track our invoices and pricing plans. But we are looking into other options for a true content management system that can be used to track the progress of our larger State-Wide campaigns in terms of artwork...
  9. Question Customer refuses to pay, can I take his graphics down?

    I would send emails to their board members starting with the CEO or President. If you have not received a response and it's past 30 days from the due date. Include: Pictures of the project. Timeline from the start to the completion of the project. Be accurate on all accounts as to when you...
  10. Artwork/design pricing and deposit procedures

    Know your limits... When we first started we provided a lot of free artwork to help secure the project. Now we only do it from time to time... We charge $65 per hour to design their artwork and create print ready files. We have found that if you are upfront with the client on the pricing...
  11. Complaining about attitudes on S101?

    There is no reason to be a **** to anyone asking a question about this industry. If you feel it's not worthy of your time, then don't comment. If you feel you need to put them down in a way that reflects a harsh or aggressive stance towards the post, then step away. When I started I did not...
  12. Signs2Trade - Great Company

    Once again my go to trade supplier comes through in pinch for us. Not a large order... but a custom order that needs to arrive by Friday. We had a client that let something get by them for a deadline and he got a lot of pressure to have it done by Friday. Double sided 18oz pennant style...
  13. Critique requested

    Perhaps I'm just getting old...lol. I see the Lake Susan 2 png easily a large enough variation that falls outside of the yor #19 post. The logo may have a similar head, but that is where it ends for me. The overall layout, style, colors are complete within the Lake Susan 2 png. I would...
  14. Critique requested

    Lake Susan 2.png That reflects well to the before mentioned wealth as in community. The design creates a new brand compared to having an entrance sign used by the commoner's (joking as if from a millionaire club voice over.). Perhaps you should work something out with neato to finalize the...
  15. Basketball template

    5"w x 2"h is about what we use to create them for colleges that present b-balls to players for breaking records. You can have a few lines within that and it's not much fun doing them. We use our finger to apply and take our time... no money in them for us for sure. But it's one of the those...
  16. Latex Printer

    Pro's Good print quality. Proper profile and passes look great up-close or far away. Good speeds. It's not flatbed or 120+" roll-to-roll fast for sure as it's about a 1/10 of the price (used large format) and limited to 63" media for banners. Easy to profile. By far one of my favorite...
  17. Need Advice On Flatbed Table Applicator

    Many of the models in this thread are really cool inventions. Sign equipment is just cool... Curious as to how many of the current users have flatbed printers as well. Did you have the flatbed before or purchase one after your roller applicator was purchased? I wish I had few of the models...
  18. looking for feed back on the HP LATEX R 1000+/2000+ FLATBED

    Any first hand users know how many 4x8 sheets it will print in production mode? (500-600dpi) Typically no banding with good colors for their coroplast runs... I'm hoping they continue to make strides with this UV series as they have done with their roll-to-roll models.
  19. HP Latex 370 - Auto Cut Substrate

    We have the 365 and it's the same way. If you leave it on it will cut after the print. But I always turn it off and toggle back on when I need to cut.
  20. HP Latex 370 - Auto Cut Substrate

    We have the 365 and it's the same way. If you leave it on it will cut after the print. But I always turn it off and toggle back on when I need to cut.
