Warped You actually think that is Funny??

You Da Guys Wow I had no idea where to look for these. THANKS A LOT !!!! Barry

Any idea where I can purchase this? Pic A & B are the same thing. The A part connects (mates) to the C part. As you can see, each have screw holes so the pieces can be anchored to a substrate. Part A has TWO cylindrical parts that have Spring-Loaded Ball Bearings in each. Pic C...

:rock-n-roll: Tony :rock-n-roll: Have a great one!! :U Rock: Barry Signs by Unique

Thumbs up!!! I buy supplies from Advantage once in a Blue Moon ... maybe once or twice during the year. Not because I don't like them, it's because when I need something, I need it NOW so I buy locally here in St. Louis. (We are a Dimensional Shop, not a Vinyl Shop) Since I am not one of...

Thanks !!! :U Rock: "You Da Man" Fred Thanks for a quick responce. You were right on. The outline and shadow do not come with the font, but using the Contour and Extrude tools in CorelDraw, I was able to acheve the needed look. Still have a little tweeking to do but I almost got...

Hi There! Any one know the name of this font and where I can purchase it?? Also, do you think the shadow (on right side of each letter) and the thin outline (on the left of each letter) comes with the font or do you think it was added. Thanks for your help :thankyou: Barry :thankyou:

Hi Tony "COULD BE" are the operative words here. :smile: :smile: :smile: I cleaned the Slides that the bearings track on and lubed the bearings with a bearing oil. I have tested two FORCEs, 3 oz and 6 oz on HP Vinyl. I ran several test using those settings. Sometimes, it cuts my...

Gang I have an Envision that decided to go semi-South. It cuts the vinyl…sometimes. For example it will be cutting a number, say 2. It will begin cutting and then fades out (like the blade is raising) and looses contact with the vinyl. I tried to dialing out the blade and increasing the...

Fellow Letterheads, I need your input. Because we have a CNC router, we focus on dimensional signage, thus we do not have a wide format printer. I have a client who has made a simple request concerning a banner they have that was printed on such a device. The print is on banner type...

Cutting the stencil Although I have not tried to cut stencil with my CNC router myself, you might want to use a Downward Spiral router bit to cut with. This is just a guess, but a straight bit may not cut the stencil cleanly enough (unless the bit is brand new and sharp). An Upward Spiral...

Hi John1 Our Wholesale business (to the trade only) is in the field of CNC Routing, we do not wholesale prints, but your real question is “is it LESS of a pain to run wholesale Vs. Retail”. We find that Wholesaling to other sign shops falls into two categories. Those shops that know about...

Workbench Nice workbench you have there...and with a blue surface. The only thing I can't think of is what do you put in those built-in pockets?? :smile: Barry

Poor Man's LAN ... and a fix to your problem Hey HWG I had the same problem with Gerber’s OMEGA software with a dongle. The “fix” was quite easy. I have my thermal printer on the second floor and my CNC router on the first floor. Like you, I would carry the dongle up and down to the...

25 foot Tape Measurer I give 25 foot tape measures to all of my new clients. If bought in quantity, I can purchase them for less than a dollar each. I remove the label that is on the case and replace it with a digital print that states "Complements from Signs by Unique" along with my...

Plans for a Grain Frame Hi There Been there, Done that. I built my own grain frame using 1 inch tubular and flat steel. It measures 62 inches wide by 40 inches tall. Do you have Corel Draw? If you would like to have a set, email at Barry@SignsByUnique.com Bj

A Car Jack works well also. Got the Jack, the base, and bar at a flea market for $5.00. Just a few suggestions… Take a 2”x8”x12” board with you. Place the board on the ground next to the post and then place your jack on top of the board. Makes for a solid base and distributes the...

Assuming Mosh is using a CNC Router, what type of bit would you use and at what speed?? Thanks Bj

Several years ago when I purchased my Gerber Sabre 408, I opted for the Porter Cable router rather than the Spindle. I chose the Router over the Spindle because of the following… · I do not have 3 phase power in the area so I had to install a converter (single to triple phase) to supply...

Yesterday, I tried to route a shape out of CoroPlast (3mm). The edges came out jagged and choppy. So my question is...Do you cut CoroPlast with your router? If so, what size and TYPE of bit (Upward, downward, etc) do you use and the speed setting. Thanks Barry
