Slapakiss, that is an "extreme" cutting mat purchased from Advantage. yup, the grid's on top, even held up when i had an ink spill and used solvent cleaner on it. There was a whole thread on "extreme cutting mat is extreme allright" a couple months back .Seems I got a bad one , it would not lay...

good luck with everything!

here's what i use. one at each end. BTW - that's a 90 deg electrical conduit pipe band clamped to a c-clamp

unfortunately, this probably sums it up for alot of us. but hey, having the oppurtunity to indulge in a job we love and getting to express a little artistic ability is the draw. It's certainly not the money!

yeah, straight silicone spray doesnt smell nearly as good.

there was a whole thread not too long ago about the pro's and con's of free items in the front yard! LOL ! the machine would go away, the sign would be laying in the gutter, and then they guy would come back around to complain that it is a peice of junk and how dare he put it out for free....

for what it's worth, ive done a bunch of trucks and trailers with the regular 651 , and yeah, it tents a little, but not so bad. i torch or blast with the heat gun at each rivet. no comebacks yet ( fingers crossed behind back ) . yes, inform the customer to CYA. the 651 is pretty rugged stuff...

you can rasterize it right in flexi. go to bitmap>rasterize to convert for print.

how ya doing skyhawk? welcome to the show. i would recommend you take a look at the merchant directory.it is halfway down the left side of the page. there are some guys in there that would print it for you as needed. you can buy the stuff preprinted from sharpline, but i think the patterns...

the magnum-moss warranty act of 1975 seems to address this situation, however, it applies only to "consumer goods" and not to goods sold for commercial purposes.

Dont forget to try auto dealerships. go right to the parts manager and ask about their parts delivery vehicles. then maybe try the sales dept for removable "promo" lettering and graphics, windsheild toppers, web addresses on their demos, etc...the sales dept stuff is usually all low budget stuff...

42 extinctions? THAT cant be true, can it?

there are for auto parts. but i guess that's different. gotta keep those cars running so the govt can tax the hell out of the gasoline. maybe if they taxed the hell out of our inks there'd be a law ?

boy, THAT'S a way to waste some time ! very interesting when you sit there and think about all that it's displaying... thanks for sharing

Also, i dont think that'd be a USB on an old version of flexi. the key would go in your LPT (printer) port

IMHO - I think your salesperson (or a warm calling ) idea is better - atleast it will be a little more targeted. I say warm calling to mean - you look for old, worn out signs and what not around your area and cold call these people first. Here's another idea - plaster your vehicle with...

I'll admit I never read them. At all. Sorry. Only took a few minutes, and yeah common sense. But common sense isnt always as common as we would like to believe - LOL !

good stuff, Pat ! I , too, am a horrible salesman and i like your approach to this weakness. i have always relied on Quality and Word of Mouth to keep the jobs list going, but things are tougher any more. i have always found Word of Mouth best for me as i specialize in custom automotive...

I think the guitar is broken....

take a look at the "mutoh new ink disaster" thread still up on the home page. i think you are fine with you're printer if you're using VJ carts. Advantage Sign Supply Tech Support told me that they were unaware of any widespread problem with OEM Mutoh cartridges anyway. The guy only knew of a...
