Yeah 16 people talking at once would be useless. We generally have 4 or less. If we do something company wide, I generally moderate it or it's a platform for me to tell everyone about a big announcement. In March/April, just letting everyone know it was going to be OK and we still had plans...

Internally, we use Google hangouts. Very useful for us. Our front office staff work from home half to full time now so it's essential with that. We meet with our developers in India that keep our website running. We do virtual demos all the time with equipment manufacturers. We send files and...

Haha, stress free? No. In fact it's a constant battle. What to automate, when to use paper, what happens when there is a bug. How do I do this? Just because I understand it, doesn't mean everyone else will. I worked with a developer that once told me to build a solid paper system first...

Safety orange can be pretty hard to hit digitally. We screen print it.

What other calcs could be helpful? Would love to build more! A few ideas I have: - Roll Length Calc (based on quantity of a print) - Shop hourly rate calculator - Sign equipment loan calculator with ROI - Pantone to CMYK/HEX/RGB conversion

So when buying plastics, the second number indicates the length of the grain from the manufacturer. Also, what do you call the dimensions of a roll? Generally we say length. Working on a roll length calc as well, so this can borrow the formulas. All that being said, y'all are right. I have...

Thanks for looking!

You're just referring to the labels? So you would make it Width & Height instead of Width & Length?

Hi Guys, Set this up today for you to use freely. It's a sheet yield nesting/imposition calculator for rectangles (or squares). It will tell you have many of a smaller sized rectangle will fit in a larger one. Not that hard to run through the possible scenarios with a notepad and a calculator...

I've heard it more than once, the only way out of the graphics industry is in a coffin...

You get what you pay for, but you have to start somewhere. Today, there are 28 of us here at FireSprint running well over a million dollars worth of equipment. It all started when I bought a $300 Vinyl Master plotter on eBay in 2007 and broke into this business. I lived in my parents basement...
