  1. Dry Erase Print Over Magnetic Board

    Use rare earth magnets (neodymium). They will work. eBay is a great place to get them.
  2. New To Vinyl Cutting, Need Guidance.

    Summa is a great plotter, but any of the name brands will work fine for quick runs or small stuff. We work with a ton of stores like yourself. Please keep us in mind for when a customer asks you to print or make something that you don't do. We're only a 2 day ship to you! You can get pricing...
  3. Suggestions Outsource Recommendations For Banner Printing

    We stand behind everything we do. We do alot more than just banners too.
  4. Prefered Screen Print Black

    The setup really depends on the pritner's RIP software. For us, the most important thing, aside from a 100% vector graphic, would be that all the same color to print, is actually the exact same color in your file. For example, you could create black in your file an infinite number of ways (by...
  5. Zund Or Oce Procut

    We really love our Zund, but why isn't Summa or Esko on your shortlist? Also, what are you primarily going to cut?
  6. Color Match Problem

    Is there a clear coat or something on it? You need to match the finish first (this might include an overlam) and then the color. Gloss, matte, etc.

    We can do these. Could use 020 or 030 styrene, foam core, coro, pvc, aluminum, acm, etc. What's there now? Email for a quote once you get a better idea on material. Support@firesprint.com
  8. Direct To Substrate Longevity Outdoors

    Can these be screen printed? We can screen print with an overprint clear and that will last longer than a digital direct print. Email us for a custom quote if you would like. Support@firesprint.com
  9. Cutting Lots Of Coreflute

    You could use a foot shear. That'd what we used to use before we got our guillotine cutters and later our Zund. If you want to sub this out, we can do it.
  10. Sign Shop Lobby Help

    We're able to gut them out of 4x8 sheets of coro. Flutes run vertical to the ground when they are set up. This gives them the best strength.
  11. Quotes Needed On Small Cut Vinyl

    If a digital cutter is capable of doing this, our Zund would be. However, I would think that the challenges would present themselves differently with each type of vinyl. When you figure out what vinyl it needs to be on, send me a 2'x2' sample (or about) of it and a to scale cut file and we can...

    Here are some ideas: Sign Size chart Letter size chart Color chart When someone walks in and has no idea what they want, those charts will be very helpful to get that transaction moving along faster! Also, I don't really see a problem with filling the wall with samples. When someone walks...
  13. Selling Rolls Of Vinyl To Customers

    Double the rolls. By the yard, triple or more. You could also put a bunch of random scraps in a "Grab Bag" for $10 or whatever. I see leather shops and hobby stores sell stuff like this all the time. Just bag up all the small offcuts and sell it to a hobbyist.

  15. Suggestions Adding Bleed To A Simple Design For A Better Contour Cut [video]

    Wow. I didn't think this would spark such controversy. I agree that with this very simple demo, increasing the stroke would have done the same thing as an offset path, but there are times when understanding how to create an offset path in Illustrator are helpful. Hopefully, this helps someone...

  17. Suggestions Lamination For Rigid Materials

    You're on the right track. That's a UV Coater, and with small parts, that's probably what you need. Keep in mind that the UV coating is not nearly as durable as a film laminate with a UV inhibitor though. It's mostly to give it a higher gloss level.
