+1 for Arlon 8000. Stuff is AWESOME! I just did a couple-dozen coolers for a client of ours, decals all-over them. Even sticks to porous wood, like doors & beat-up/chipped MDO's that clients bring-in to "add a quick phone number"

SKILLZ-zone doesn't read right. I'd have the full name being parallel, with gaming center subtext whichever way you like.

I use Avery, Gerber, & Pask Mask, whatever price is right at time of ordering restock, with both MAP & AkzoNobel paints. All turn out great.

pfft. Orafol 5700, printed, and cast-laminated. it'll be 5+ years before the color starts to noticeably fade. stock vinyl may keep its color longer, but i'm sure your client would appreciate a more economical solution. p.s. its black & red. I'd only really worry about color fading if you...

does it go through the motions of cutting? ...or just form feed and stop? if the former is true, then maybe your cutting blade has snapped & needs replacement?

yeah, do a long soak to try and clear that up. as far as your capping station is concerned, try bumping the cap upwards a bit for a tighter fit when parked. last time I did this, I just ran a nozzle wash, and when the carriage moved out from the capping station I removed the black rubber cap...

I'm in.

i'm just a big fan of colorizing faces with vinyl, because it's easier to stock white acrylic and use for everything ...as opposed to sitting on stock acrylic colors for years and years. still, yellow acrylic would be my choice. especially since it is much easier to...

if you changed your damper and then this issue arose, then you can isolate your issue to one of three possibilities: 1) vapor lock, air bubble inside the printhead that is killing the siphon-effect of the ink supply. 2) air bubble inside of the ink line, also killing the siphon-effect of the ink...

projector and a paint brush, working late hours.

any ideas?

copied for sure. whichever direction it may be....and who cares? they own no rights to the design, and the dog owns no rights to his own likeness. ...i have a childhood photo of myself flying off my bed with a nerfball in-hand, reaching for the hoop above my doorway AND MichaelJordan has the...

changing your damper incorrectly could have caused this issue. I am unfamiliar with whichever Roland you may be referring to, but the damper sits atop a plastic manifold on the printhead which could have easily been broken during removal/reinsertion of the damper.

our $100 minimum usually keeps these tire-kickers at bay ...and my sanity in-check.

google "Jack in the Box" Truck for some inspiration. ...has nothing to do with food, and is simply AWESOME!

we've used lexan with trim cap on random projects in the past... weld-on does not work, however. gotta beef-up your adhesive to an epoxy. We use Lord's, but which one evades my mind at the moment.

we charge our shop rate, for an additional body onsite. 1 guy & a truck = 2x shop rate for an installer.

is all your OS software & flash player/etc. up to date? I've had serious issues with my macbook and other PC computers, in the past, when I've waited months&months to finally accept the update notifications that keep pop'n up on my screen.

3rd party. my last batch $600 printheads are still going strong, now 3yrs later. pretty safe to assume that they're all coming from the same facility, or at least the same country. it is just who orders what quantities, or wants to unload them quickly, or deserves a $500 markup for putting a...
