  1. Anyone Use Vinyl On Your (physical) Desktop For Organization?

    I don't have any photos but my desk is wrapped in a printed carbon fiber, and our front counter is a wood grain. The front needs to be re-done because its been beat up by customers and our UPS driver. Next time i would use a thicker laminate for sure. I think desk/ counter wraps are amazing...
  2. Who Uses Instagram? Post Them Up!

    Zx360 is my personal one, boss doesn't do the whole "social media thing" but i tend to post work stuff up on my personal page as i do jobs.
  3. Layout Suggestions

    i hate the red background.
  4. Printing On Magnet - Hpl360

    What pass count are you running at? If you have to lower the heat to avoid the material deforming i would go with a higher pass count so the material is under the heat longer, test that and see if that helps. If you are already at a higher pass not sure. Hopefully someone else will chime in soon.
  5. Photo Backdrops

    Creative banner sells 8'x8' backdrops, we just ordered one for a customer a month ago and they loved it.
  6. Opinion Not A Real Problem, Just Wondering........................

    Funny we were just having this conversation this morning... I had a customer call last week, urgently needing 2 trucks done by this Friday. We scheduled them in, moved another customer around to next week. Came in this morning and the trucks aren't here, I called and no answer and no call...
  7. Prefered Screen Print Black

    Would depend how they print the films for making screens. Just set it to black and give them a file, they can easily do what they need to do (don't over think it), You have already done way more compared to the "ready to go" artwork we get all the time.
  8. Fluorescent Overlays Are Shorter Than Printed Graphics

    are the prints laminated? Could your tension be set a bit high causing a bit of stretch in lamination? Like others have said, i would eliminate the knock out, or at east put a stroke on it to make it smaller, You still have the idea where the overlay goes but can account for the difference if...
  9. Question Never Used This Before............................

    works great, just do a few cut tests before sending the whole job. Pressure settings will be a little different compared to regular cast vinyls.
  10. Printer Opinions Wanted

    Ive seen your issues on the FB HP group and it sucks what you are going through. As far as the HPs/ latex printers go, we switched to the 360 about 6 months ago. The printer and new graphtec we bought with it were paid off within 2 months. My increased productivity of having the prints...
  11. So I'm In Charge Now?

    Glad I'm not the only one like this. I say it all the time... These guys go and get gas on company cards, they can pay on pick up. Boss doesn't go for it.... I'm just happy we are finally billing in a timely manner.
  12. So I'm In Charge Now?

    Welcome, Little different situation here, but we are a small business. The advice i can give is, find time to invoice immediately! Do not let product walk out the door without a bill/ bill being paid. Since i started here, we got our receivables down 70% because the newer (younger) staff...
  13. Acquiring A Computer's Business

    Would only value it on assets, not customers. I don't care how many "loyal" customers they have, customers are customers they are never a guarantee. Some of our best customers go elsewhere now for a cheaper price, they tend to make their way back, but nothing is guaranteed. Assess the...
  14. Acquiring A Computer's Business

    Is this a computer business or competing sign business?
  15. Avery Digital Film Class

    I will also be taking the digital films class coming up in a few months. Everyone i know who has taken it has said its worth it. I do quite a few wraps every year and still think the class is worth it, any tip or trick that saves me time is worth it. Hoping to also take the advanced class if...
  16. Looking For A Cabinet Sign Vendor

    I've been working with world wide signs on a recent job for quoting that we just sold. Prices were great, and they are easy to work with. Located in the middle of WI and they can ship/ deliver so it may not be too big of an issue for you. Wholesale Signs - Channel Letters

  20. Orajet 3641
