Well...this puppy is staying on the porch!! How right you are Arlo. The prevalent philosophy is such that "you can just peel it of and do it again". While vinyl and other things offer some advantages it has also destroyed the philosophy of "do it right the first time". (I was guilty of that...

The point of the other posts was that you did not clarify what you want to accomplish with the printer. Without getting more specific than a "4x8", there is no way for the others to properly advise you. There are essentially three types of printers - roll (vinyl), flatbed (substrates), and...

Welcome!!

You are referring to branded products intended for retail. Al these companies are doing is protecting the value of their brand. Equipment and tools are things that you can use to create or maintain a branded product. The success of these companies is simply based on the number of units aka...

Maybe not. Some truck stops have guys sitting there doing two doors for $30. That is exactly what most vendors see. The only way around that is to form a bonafide buyers group and pre-negotiate pricing for all of its members.

Have to join the crowd about the font. If it is upscale, invest the dough in some of the LHF fonts (I can think of a couple right off the bat). A couple of the SignFonts should work also.

Careful Joe. New reports say that those little pills make men go deaf :Big Laugh Happy Birthday!!!!! BTW - What the hell did you do to anybody to get all of this loving abuse ???

Frank, Maybe Andy will chime in. Do you know anybody in the UK? If we were in your position we would probably look to find what people are happy using there. Because of the proximity, you can easily obtain whatever brands are there and that way you are not at the mercy of one distributor, yet...

There is no easy answer. The less you spend, the more you work. Unless you know how to maintain the machine, and do not need any training, the best machine is from the vendor that will give you the most technical support.

Happy Birthday Steve!

Exactly

Unless they are looking to get something for nothing, you be making a very big mistake by making the "go away".

Happy 19th birthday Teri :clapping:

Understood BUT panels covered with prints, even banners, are not the same scenario. Based on the original post he is speaking of bare wood (guessing probably carved). That will expand and contract at a much greater and different rate than any type of panel. We too use the Clearshield - and it...

For indoor projects the stuff is fine on wood - exterior no. In our area we saw some stuff dry/crack within a year. Probably a little longer up there but would not trust it.

Looking good Keith!

One of the most important things, and often overlooked in the sign industry, are contracts and their language. In most cases there are "remedies of lien", IF and only if the paperwork and contract are in proper order. Sometimes this even includes the added expense of filing a lien. It is also...

What you really should be doing is looking for a class on color management and workflow. It is nowhere as easy as everybody makes it sound. Once you get some formal training (1 day, not a tech stopping by) the rest will fall into place quickly and easily. As for the RIP, there is nothing...
