  4. Frosted windows

    Another option is to sub it out to a professional window film installer. A good friend of ours does commercial buildings so I refer the work to him. When he needs prints he gets them from us. The pros will have all the tools and most importantly techniques to do a flawless job. The couple...

  9. radiant heating

    I think you'll be fine. I have Space-Ray brand in the laminating and fabricating areas and I'm real pleased with them. No dust to blow around like forced air. They're explosion proof too which is good since I do custom paint from time to time. A big plus is zero maintenance save for blowing...

  15. SP-540V Printing Issues

    How much ink is in the carts? Some 3rd party inks don't "inform" the printer they are empty and allow a backflush which contaminates the neighboring line. OEM or 3rd party ink? If 3rd party the drain lines are clogging and hardening. Best bet is to replace them. The other issue may be a...
  16. Safety of Chemicals used in sign making

    At my old job they would periodically have environmental audits/testing. This was done over several shifts over a couple days. An employee from each work area would wear a device that monitored anything that was in the air. Dust, VOC's, etc... This is the only way to know for sure what is...
  17. Eagle Clamps

    I looked at something similar at the local woodworking store. Salesman said not to buy them. Especially if I planned on using them a lot.. The small rods that the clamp "bites" into get nicked because they are so soft. Once nicked the clamp cannot slide past that spot. Not saying the Eagle...

    I like the carbon fiber.
  19. Which Table Saw for PVC, Aluminum, Dibon

    X2 I have a Powermatic with the Vega fence system. Can go 52" to the right of blade. 1/32" in 96". I run the 7 1/4" Oldham laminate blades for ACM and foam-pvc. Also TIG'ed up a 4-wheel stand so it's easy to move where I need it. Can slide the fence off the end and have a big work...
  20. Proper way to Print>Laminate>Cut?! Material wanders away?!

    First mistake is using the sheet cut. Sheet cut only gives you a straight edge. It does not guarantee 90 degrees to the factory edge. My wife ran into this and a large batch of decals was ruined. I pulled the material and did a manual squaring. Material was off 9/16"! One thing I do on...
