  1. How's about this one?

    I've estimated a size of a wall using Google Earth. Also when i am talking with a customer about a sign over the phone i often look it up using Google Maps street view. Talk with the customer at the same time as i am looking at the site where they want their sign. It's so handy!
  2. Suggestions Need a 3rd party shipping service.

    Maybe you could open shipping account with a US based company? Just thinking here.
  3. Suggestions Need a 3rd party shipping service.

    Bringing in stuff from another country you need either a private Shipping Broker or UPS Worldwide (expensive brokerage fees). Or you cross over yourself to a UPS store or other similar business close to the border and coming back fill in the appropriate paperwork yourself.
  4. Can a cut file change over the years?

    Makes me think about my engraving software. Whenever i open old files (older version) it will tell me to save the file over. If i don't i can get screwy results. But just saving it with no changes seems to make it run fine after.
  5. How anal are you.......... ??

    Whenever i do an "Hours of operation" sign. If it's in french i always list the hours in a 24h cycle. I get instructions like "from 8:30am to 5:00pm". I will change it over to "from 8h30 to 17h00". Haven't gotten any flack for it yet.
  6. Just slipped a disk.

    I would not go see a Chiropractor. You need a Physiotherapist!!! To me Chiropractors are quacks.....
  7. Insurance from Hartford

    I am set up the same. My insurance company forced me to take an extra "garage-keeper" policy once they learned i keep vehicles in my shop overnight/multiple days.
  8. trailer rivet question

    I create canals when installing wraps on rivets/screws. Hit it with a blow torch and roll over with a Rolle-Pro. If you do it right you won't need to touch each rivet head. And you only need Primer94 if you use 3M vinyl. I don't.
  9. trailer rivet question

    I would never touch up screws on a trailer with paint. You end up with painted screws once the wrap is taken off or changed. Ends up looking like a mess. IMO you either go over them or under and i won't babysit each screws either. If i go over them it will be a very quick pass with a Rolle-Pro...

  11. Discussion what's everyone's hurry????

    Allot of times they ask for a rush job but don't show up for a couple of days after they said they wanted to pick their stuff up. :banghead:

  14. Roland VS540 service manual

    Without reading the whole manuals. I see the User's manual for the VS series of printers and the Service manual for the VSI printers. VS series does not have the same head or ink cartridge setup as the VSI series.
  15. Roland VS540 service manual

    Thank you. It is titled "User's manual". Is it also the "Service manual" or is that a separate document (i would assume so)
  16. Roland VS540 service manual

    Link is not working Bert. I would also be interested in having it. Don't need it now but would like to have it for the inevitable.
  17. Been using this for a long long time...........................

    I've had that happen before. And it was only with red vinyl. Kinda leaves a stain. I try top avoid erasers when removing vinyl. Pretty munch the only time i will use them is if i am removing old vinyl that has a million cracks in it. I've used a 3M product before. Don't remember the name but it...
  18. PVC free print film for laser cutting?

    Gene ... I have two Gravograph units. An LS100 35 watt and a LS900 60 watt. Not sure about the types of lasers they have. I only know they are CO2 laser systems. Like i said though. Smoke doesn't stay long in the unit. The blower (also got from Gravograph) does a really great job. I have to be...
  19. PVC free print film for laser cutting?

    My airflow sucks big time! :D I never though about the PVC content in regular vinyl, i guess that's why. Smoke does not accumulate inside my units (i have two connected to the same blower), goes straight out the back!
  20. PVC free print film for laser cutting?

    I laser cut regular vinyl or printed/laminated vinyl fairly often with my lasers. Never worried about pvc free vinyl.
