  1. Homebrew winder and IR heater- 54"

    nice! has me looking at my roland and wondering. I like the barbeque motor! What stops the motor from turning once the material is taken unto the roll? Does it just keep trying to turn until the motion detector turns it off?
  2. avery 1005 ears fiilm specs

    as far as I'm aware wraps with wrap specific material don't damage paint, in fact they protect paint. The issue is that any non wrapped protions will age and discolor naturally while the protected stay the same. I myself have not seen vehicle specific warranty other than material replacement...
  3. Nothing better than starting off your morning raging a scammer

    clearly you haven't heard about Chuck Bin Laden; the bad seed younger brother to Osama. Watch the skies.
  4. Can I FAX that to you?

    Our fax died last year, but we bought a copier/printer/fax/scanner for $69 from staples. We do still need to send faxes and still get many order forms set to our fax line. One of our product lines is business cards and almost all still have a fax number. The fax is far from dead and does not...

    nice work, very clean.
  6. Sand Text

    Road trip! I got shotgun! the easiest way is a trip to the beach. How good is your finger at fonts though? You could work out some basic curves in the sand that could be used later to construct lettering in photoshop. A couple of hours work at least...unless someone created a really...
  7. free grommet plugin

    ??? Bizarre. placing grommets in illustrator is about the easiest operation there is; create a dot centred in a transparent box an inch or 3/4 on a side. 10ft banner, 6 grommets placed and then use align to distribute them evenly along the edge. copy paste align for the other edge= grommet...
  8. Happy Freakin' Monday

    Ha! you think your day is bad? It's a holiday today here in Canada, So I drove down to the beach just 5 mins away....I forgot the sunscreen! Well since I have just had to drive all the way back and get it. Now I'm going back there to sneak a beer, eat salty snacks, read a book and snooze in...

    go on... tell us. We are all adults here
  10. Gas can label

    Just put "made in China" on the labels. then nobody will be surprised when the ink runs off or the adhesive fails. Got to laminate. If it's a good surface any spilt gas may not get behind the label.
  11. Printing large banner w/ Mutoh Valuejet

    Hmm, here is the thing, a good gust can generate 5-10lbs per square foot (60 mph would be about 7.5 lbs per square) on a solid barrier (in this case banner). That banner looks to be about 100 square feet of banner, there could be a lateral push of 1000 lbs, not just once but many many times on a...
  12. Printing large banner w/ Mutoh Valuejet

    Although I use a roland, many issues are the same; To keep head strikes down I ensure the roll of banner is fixed in the media holders at each end. This ensures a straight feed. To stop wrinkling as it feeds I run the temp slightly lower and ensure there is no tension on the rollers by having a...
  13. The Old Switcheroo

    I wish I could make a tent! Today is another day and being a weekend day, better than yesterday. I have a good book, a cold drink and a printer. life is good.
  14. The Old Switcheroo

    Completely different banner, texture was different, and that fine a dot in yellow (I would have if I could). I sit here surrounded by enough wasted vinyl to make a circus tent. :birthday: to me.
  15. The Old Switcheroo

    What a week, this is by way of a rant. So I get a big order from a big corporation that orders from us a couple of times a year. I have a roll of the high gloss banner they have every year in stock and place an order with my supplier for a couple more rolls to complete the urgent-ish order...
  16. Naming and shaming

    I certainly won't be moving to Triangle Inks if that is the level of support. The issue with head failiure aside, this will cost them.
  17. Window Perf caused window to crack

    They better prepare to replace that window because they cannot prove you did it. There has to be proof of an action. It was good when they started, broken when they left, or the perf caused the break by doing something. If it wasn't broken when you left and all the professionals on this site...
  18. Window Perf caused window to crack

    Unless you used heat, you did nothing to the glass but clean it. It is possible the process shifted the glass in its frame slightly and tipped an already stressed pane to crack, but frames twist over time and glass cracks. This is just a random happening that they will want you to pay for. Of...
  19. Bypass the router?

    or you could fix your broken router/network...something you will have to do anyway. Your network should run without the internet. How will you print signage if there is a Nuclear war or an outbreak of Zombies?
  20. Precise Cuts through Vinyl without a Knife

    ok I'm sold, Although it's $17 bucks for us Canadian "hicks". Oh wait, I stand corrected. $9 bucks. I'm sold, just sent for one. Nice sales effort, You introduced the product in a way that had us all going for it, overcame objections and corrected without offence.
