  1. Polycarb Thickness Question

    We would use 3/16" or even 1/4" material - I think the .150" would be too flimsy for that size of sign. I suggest you look to another vendor for the right width rollstock.
  2. Thinking about switching payroll services - from ADP to Square

    I suggest you take a look at Wave payroll. It's an online service, and you do have to do some input - but I've found it to be simple and straightforward. Just two employees would run you less than US$ 300 a year. I can recommend them. https://www.waveapps.com/payroll/

    BBB van

    A recent wrap for a local Brewery. Good beer as well!
  5. Illustrator question

    Greetings, This is driving me nuts. I work mostly in Corel, but every now and then need to use Illustrator - which I confess I find difficult. Here is a (probably) simple issue that I would be grateful if someone could help with. How do I select the little circle shape (all the components)...
  6. Weird bubbles/blisters under laminate.

    Curious to see if anyone else has come across this. Materials are Avery EZ1005 RS and DOL1060 gloss laminate. When laminating a section manually (by that I mean the laminate is not spooled onto the laminator, but as a cut piece) and pulling off the liner we occasionally get bubble/blisters...
  7. Familiar but escapes me

    Can anyone id this font - it looks familiar but I can't put my finger on it. Thanks
  8. Print issue

    Hello, Does anyone have any idea as to what could be causing this blur on the print? I've manually cleaned the printer a couple of times, but it's still there in varying degrees. The orientation of the print is how the pics show - the blur top and bottom of the letter is the same direction as...
  9. Could someone try and open this for me?

    Thank you very much to all who responded - a member kindly opened the file for me.
  10. Could someone try and open this for me?

    Greetings, We only have Corel X3. Customer has emailed a cdr file, which appears blank for us, so I'm thinking it might be in a newer version. Could someone try and open it? If it works, save as X3 or an eps? Reply with an email address and I'll send it across. Much appreciated.
  11. Best way/tool to cut acrylic?

    Have you considered polycarbonate (i.e Lexan) instead of acrylic? Cuts quite a bit easier with a circular saw and would be more vandal-resistant as well?
  12. SP540v Stops printing midway, "processing"

    Consider a dedicated network card for your computer, rather than go through network/switch/router?
  13. Rememberance Day

    Today is Rememberance Day in Canada, and I, for one, would like to express my appreciation and respect to our Veterans and all who serve. It is because of their sacrifices that we enjoy the freedoms that we do.
  14. Is the backing to Mac tac vinyl recyclable?

    Our local recyclers won't take the backing paper because of the silicon component...
  15. Need advice for a new laser cut machine

    You won't go wrong with an Epilog. There are some cheaper Chinese machines out there, but I'm of the opinion, like has been said numerous times here about Vinyl plotters, you get what you pay for.
  16. Printing on FB700, customer is asking for VERY specific accuracy across a 200" print.

    Run away....run away.... those are not signmaker's tolerances. Heck, I'd be astounded to hold 1/16" over 8ft.
  17. Trying to remove hdu letters from hdu background

    You're very welcome. Hope it goes well for you.
  18. Trying to remove hdu letters from hdu background

    What about one of these? With the right blade, it'd probably cut through the screws as well?
  19. Roland Versaworks Issue - Color problems and "glitches"

    Have you run the test print in Versaworks? This might help determine if it's something in your file that's causing it? Also, in your example, are you working with spot colours or is it all CMYK?
  20. easiest way to cut 1w inch signs from coro

    Or find a friendly someone with a laser engraver - we cut coro on ours and it's a much better finish than our router.
