:omg: Problem with folks like that is they will never change. Everything they do is perfect and you're the problem. I know I've worked for some of them.

Follow the 5S routine. Sort - Straighten - Shine - Standardize - Sustain. Establishing work cells for specific operations goes hand in hand with this strategy. Table tops and benches will no longer be used to "store" tools. All tools go on a board in their respective work cell and have their...

I have an SP540V and have posted regarding its contour cutting. There are a number of things you can do, but it takes some detective work on your part. Search my posts regarding what I did. Shouldn't have to go too far back. Just not up to typing a book again.LOL

Sooo, instead of spending half a day at 50 bucks an hour and 60 to 80 dollars of material it is more cost effective to buy a table for 1000 dollars that you still have to assemble. (and had to pay to have it shipped to your location and had to have a helper to get it off the truck, moved...

This^^^^ You could find a local carpenter or metal shop and have them build EXACTLY what you need. Get your perfect working height, add storage, drawers,outlets etc...

Thank you for the clarification. Once I hear "cloud" anything I cringe since it usually entails a monthly fee. It is nice to know Flexi gives you the option. Kudos to them.

You da man!!!! Sounds just like me. Both RIP servers are XP and we still have Corel 3! Wife cranks out fantastic work using CS2.:omg: Don't ever get me started on this whole cloud deal or the "necessity" of having to have the latest piece of software.

Sub it out. In your area there must be service bureaus that serve architects. By the time you wast time looking for a cheap plotter then wrestling with software, pens etc... See where this is goin?

If you don't mind another monthly payment then go for it.

Methinks you need to get a thicker skin. You opened yourself up to all kinds of criticism/sniping regarding your post. Followed immediately by calling people trolls. Nice. Would love to be a fly on the wall when the client comes in. Just sayin...

If I was close to retirement I'd find a buyer for the equipment and transition myself out. Then go find a part or full time mindless job and coast to the "golden years". No way would I be signing contracts and having major capital expenditures late in the game. Remember, everything looks...

We printed tons of WallNoodle on our Roland with zero issues. Our shop was doing contract printing for another shop. Their installers really liked it.

These guys can do it: http://www.independentinc.com/print-and-finishing.html FYI: You may want to find find out what embossing costs before you go any further. It is not inexpensive by any stretch of the imagination unless you are doing tens of thousands of units.

What is the project? If you need a small amount and it isn't going over compound curves paint vinyl to match. Used to do it years back. Base/clear on white 2mil always turned out great. Rattle cans worked well for smaller projects.

Does it have to be polycarb? What about sheet metal? A competent shop could fab that easily. You could also put shallow cuts in ACM to get it around the corners.

We buy as needed from Dreamstime or take our own pics. We also sell on Dreamstime. Good way to offset costs.

Could be there is not enough nip pressure.(how hard the rollers push down) May not have been set correctly at the factory. Made a huge difference on my SP540V. Also load your material square everytime.(there is a method) Do not depend on the Sheet Cut function. Sheet Cut will cut a...

Only thing I know of with CC is InDesign will crash and lock up the system everytime if you have HP SmartStream installed. HP is working on it.

Get into Service Mode and run a fill test. If that works you can start looking at file or electronic issues.

Would need to know the scale of the project to know if tool cost could be "buried" so to speak. 3M makes the air tool and attachments to do brush finishes on stainless. Straight shank with a small pneumatic tire that accepts the conditioning sleeves. I used them at my former job. Not...
