It is always nice to keep it inhouse for a job like this even though it is tons of work you have more control over it. Although outsourcing to a larger company is appealing time and money wise I stopped doing it after a 53' outsourced trailer that needed to be fixed was sent back to the same...

He needs to stick to bikes and grills. That looks like crap especially for someone who sees himself as a celebrity designer, the logo is amateurish at best. Thanks, Kurt

Not only because it isn't cast some say Rapid Air style of vinyls aren't good for marine applications due to the air channels and water getting into them. Not sure if this is true or not but I have heard other voice this concern in the past. Thanks, Kurt

Ok, I have had the same problem not only with the 4560 GTX but the 6000 as well. I was using fully to spec as well as allowing the proper outgassing. Almost ever job I have done with these vinyls they had to be redone. It's funny didn't have anything come back when using the other materials. I...

You might want to consult a rulebook. At one time they had dimension requirements as well as requirements on contrast and strokes etc... Thanks, Kurt

I received an order for some printed postcards (8.5"x11") on Friday for Monday. Doesn't seem logical. I have artwork and files ready to go and was trying to figure out anyway to get this accomplished? Anyone use the big box stores for any of this? I went to Kinkos this morning and they said...

I would tell them they are out of luck. there are to many "designers" out there without a clue that get themselves into trouble and expect an easy bailout. What if they desinged the stuff and you printed it and it didn't fit or they don't like it? Tough for them... We have a disclaimer that if...

Look in the left column they are a MM... For their vinyls and supplies they are always very reasonable and quick. For their substrates they are a bit expensive. Thanks, kurt

lol. Amen to that!!! :beer:beer:beer:beer:beer I was just a bit concerned becasue everything was fine and then not and there is no explanation... Thanks, Kurt

Very good idea. I don't have a problem ordering from anyone as long as I know they are legit. Thanks, Kurt

While I agree some parts are getting cheaper and it is cheaper to get them from China it is becoming harder to find reputable places to get them. I am sure over time they will go down but a 50 - 75% increase in 3 years is ridiculous at best. I can only imagine some folks are finding it better...

Yeah I know. I am always leery when buying them. Just seemed odd it went from printing perfectly to not the next print after the apparent headstrike. Maybe I am overreacting... Thanks, Kurt

Yeah I did a 90 minute nozzle was followed by a strong wash and a couple of normal washes. Still there, exact same spot. Any other ideas you might think I could try for it? Visibly it doesn't look damaged but it is not printing great by any means. Thanks, Kurt

Ok, so this week I had to have a head replaced in my Mimaki. No biggie. Called a merch member up here who was very helpful and got the part overnighted and everything was grand. My certified tech came this morning an put it in. Everything was good, we where chatting and I was going back and...

Our local Advantage is carrying a lot of the typical substrates now. Do you have a local location? Thanks, Kurt

Good story. I have to say I love my Mimaki as well but the rate parts prices are climbing for these things it is only a matter of time. three years ago a head was $700.00, now $1,500. What gives? Thanks, Kurt

Check with Grainger. You are looking for inline fans correct? Either Grainger or a boat shop. Thanks, Kurt

Ok, I am interested but I would like to know of anyone else who has ordered these from you and make sure there is no problems. Sorry to be that way just so many people out there selling so much different stuff it is hard to trust anyone. Please advise, feel free to email me @ info at...

Yes it is. You can use cast lam on cal vinyl typically without any problems but you may have problems with what you are doing. Thanks, Kurt

Exactly, I agree 100%. It is awful hard to put a price on something that is custom each time. Sure if you are selling plotters or rolls of vinyl pricing is a bit easier, if you are selling a custom made advertising piece how do you put a base price on this? I don't like putting pricing on...
