  1. Contour Cutting Magnet with Roland

    What about an SP540? I assume the "small strips" refers to cutting a section off the roll to alleviate the weight of the magnetic material. makes sense. Seems like it could lead to a lot of waste with the leading/tail edge on the sections of material.
  2. Shop tables

    5x10, as most substrates start out at 4x8 & larger (5x10) sizes, also our printer is 54" wide so it's necessary for cutting so to fit it on there you'd need that. Wood construction with a 5x10 cutting mat on top is what ours is. Ours also has casters & a shelf underneath, I'd like to add side...
  3. Label printing for small bags

    Couldn't you just print onto vinyl with a solvent printer? We could do them that way here, for 100 qty @ ~4"x6" we could do them for $1.10 each + shipping.
  4. Apply Reflective over this??..Suggestions

    it's a lie. works fine for us long term. also, remove all old vinyl before you start. never apply new over old, as the old will just continue to deteriorate behind the new causing it to fail along with it.
  5. Box Truck Partial Wrap

    Owner of the painting company is a good friend of the owner here so we got a super deal, IIRC around $1200.
  6. 4x8 sign

    Where ya at in SO Ohio? We do it in one piece easily with two people, just print a little bit bigger, get the material good & wet & apply it. With one person, lay it on straight, put tape over the middle, then fold & hinge it on there (again wet) one half at a time. We never laminate in-house...
  7. 16Pt Paper For SP540

    We use a material called postermax & buy it from Sign Supply USA, give them a call & they will send you a sample. It does tend to scratch easily & take a bit longer to dry but we & the customers really like the finished products' looks. Our contact is Aisha in Cleveland @ 800-545-7818, tell...
  8. Apply Reflective over this??..Suggestions

    Looks like a PITA to me & we specialize in Ambulances... So, the blue, white, red & gold are all reflective vinyl? Seems like a lot of reflective to me...and that star of life is HUGE! I would apply the pieces seperately at the door edges (seperate panels) so that they wrapped around the...
  9. A Couple Lobby Posters & Flyers

    I would have removed that text, but left it as it was how I was sent their "official logo", the flag did end up pinkish in parts but other areas were bright & vivid; sometimes those transparency effects can do some odd results. thx guys for the compliments & suggestions; I also agree about it...
  10. Box Truck Partial Wrap

    We wrapped this one with laminated std oracal vinyl (besides the hood), the rivets were a PITA, but it ended up nice in my opinion. Customer LOVED it. Box truck was purchased white (first pic), we had it painted black & then applied graphics to the panels as shown in the other pictures...
  11. A Couple Lobby Posters & Flyers

    We did these for upcoming events at the boss' church. Let me know your thoughts. Finished product was 48" tall mounted to sintra(sp?) with matching flyers @ 11x17" to put at area businesses. Logos created/recreated in Illustrator, layout designed in InDesign, exported as a PDF & placed...
  12. Surveillance Sign <O><O>

    here is one we made recently, around here we have to be bi-lingual with our warnings...
  13. AI "An unkwown error has occured"

    I have run into this before & what has worked well for me in the past is to hide the layers, so that only a simple object or two is left showing, then save it that way. All the data is still there, but I think the main memory hog of saving is generating the preview for some reason. Once it's...

  16. Creating a Contour Cut Line?

    copy the object(s), select the objects currently there, create outlines, add a stroke to achieve the total area you'd like cut out around, flatten transparency, ungroup, release compound paths, pathfinder (top left icon). Now you should have an object of sorts without holes in the middle. Apply...
  17. Creating a Contour Cut Line?

    That is really one of the better ways to do it (Illustrator) versus usign Flexi. Flexi is made so that "anyone" can make a sign, seriously, but for detailed/complicated stuff with picky clients (or designers :biggrin:) I always use Illustrator. Not sure what you mean by "stamp" in your post, I...
  18. Halloween Stuff

    Nothing spooktacular, but I did a last minute job for a local Halloween event last week. Worked well for what it was.
  19. vball pic

    google Image search with the filter for large images only turned on? Hate to recommend using something without permission, but possibly you could contact the owner through their website, I have done that in the past with some success in a pinch.
