  1. Awesome!

    If I went into a church and started screaming obcenities I would be arrested for disturbing the peace. How is what they do different? They go to places to inflame and hurt. Like the old addage is it Free speech to shout "FIRE" in a crowded theatre?
  2. Large Banner on Chainlink Fence

    Can people peep through the wind slits? If someone puts up something like that to block passers-by peeping they MUST have something worth peeping at.
  3. Credit Card Telemarketers

    don't forget the nice guys from Microsoft telling you your apple has a virus. I had one guy telling me he can detect viruses on all platforms and if I'll just type the following into my browser... My second favourite is booking the guy from the duct cleaning company to go to a fake address...
  4. Large Banner on Chainlink Fence

    Frankly I doubt the Chainlink fence posts will have a chance. 480 sq ft of solid banner would make for over 10,000 lbs of force in a moderate wind. At the very least it has to be mesh.
  5. inhaling vinyl adhesive....

    You know of course that in 20 years they will find it causes cancer. There will be TV shows with guys in hazmat suits taking down signage. Funny everyone loves the smell of rapid tac...I bet it's the worst!
  6. should these be banned?

    See, breasts don't kill people, people kill people. We were lucky this time, she could have run amok with those babies.
  7. It's all about apples and oranges

    I grind my teeth over the whole business of three quotes. As soon as I hear it I know I have lost the job. I know I will never be as cheap as the guy they find using google, and I know they will regret the cheapness of what they do get. It is also a huge waste of my time when I get a call...
  8. Royal Sovereign RSC-1650 Laminating Problem

    I use Oracal for that reason. Although Oracal is not so good with the big Squeegee, it works great with the laminator.
  9. Royal Sovereign RSC-1650 Laminating Problem

    possibly your tension is a little light, that can create a ripple D, too tight can create a V going out. You can adjust yourself, but you have to know what you are doing and what to look for. I have the same laminator and just watched the service tech make the adjustments. If you had bent...
  10. Unrolling backing from laminator

    The base of our are just heavy cores the banner comes on. We have a ton of these lying round. Just slide the big roll of backing off the laminator core and all and drop a new one in. Our local recycling has deemed the backing paper is garbage so once every few months we take a huge trailer load...
  11. Damn that fly is back

    I spotted the same fly over the weekend. at least this one is clever enough to avoid the vinyl. The flies in the chinese vinyl factory take turns thowing themselves onto the vinyl as it is being rolled.
  12. Customer who wanted the cheap option!!!

    Should have done it in Coroplast. I would tend to agree that you offered him an unsuitable solution, you are the expert here. That said I would do the job for the difference in cost between what you did the cheap one for and the Alu composite. You will probably cover your costs and he will...
  13. 4000 banners sewn

    in what time frame?
  14. my home in England

    You have a cat problem.
  15. How long can you print and cut?

    It can be down to the vinyl you are cutting. I have cut an 18ft decal with maybe a sixteenth out at the end (within tolerances), I found it was down to running it very slow on the cut. I also found that some backing papers are too slick for a decent grip by the pinch rollers.
  16. Roland Sp 540v question Please Help!!!

    Was Corel to blame?
  17. Happy Stupid day!

    Can't reuse, cut down into smaller banners. I was clever see, cutting them all down then going back to the first one and stripping the backing. ...it would make a nice sun shade though. I'm on a high dose of percocet because of a trapped nerve, I have the choice of the self-employed; Pain and...
  18. Happy Stupid day!

    In celebration of the end of the week and the opportunity to catch up over the weekend, I printed half a roll of mesh banner. This morning I cut it down to send for hemming. Everything okay until I begin to strip off the backing film... Yup I printed 200 sq feet on the back of the roll. :doh:
  19. Merry Christmas Everyone!

    You should all be tucked up in bed or santa won't come
  20. May you all have a great and safe holiday!

    Happy Hollidays to everyone! Even though in Canada we celebrate Christmas July 11th by chasing a greased pig around the christmas tree.
