  1. Non-Gerber software compatible with Envision 375???

    I am running my personal Gerber 375 with VinylMaster LTR. Cuts fine but I have not figured out how to send speed and force from the software.
  2. PLEASE HELP!!! Colorshifts in my grayscale gradients with EPSON GS6000

    You should print the target that matches your spectrophotometer. If you do not have one, look for an eye one on ebay or new even. As far as spectral vision goes, it is not restricted with a dongle or license key. You can install on any computer and save out the readings to import into colorburst.
  3. Restriction by Chroma vs Total Ink Limit

    Honestly, It sounds as if your media and print mode do not want to cooperate. This is not really surprising for a monomeric vinyl. Most that I have run across are really cheap. Is this the case? It sounds like you are doing everything right but the values you are picking sound way too low for a...
  4. Post your worktable/workspace!

    The same might be true for the electrical panel. Our fire department requires 4' of clearance in front of the electrical panels. Mezzanines are a great idea since you have such tall ceilings. I notice you do not have an in-feed or out-feed table for your laminator. I would consider moving...
  5. Epson GS6000

    $.01 per square foot. Very very very light coverage. You should expect $.22 per square foot average. Typically I see numbers as low as $.12 with the higheste I have seen being $.33.

  7. cheap tablesaw

    Actually, I think he used his home made band saw for most of the cutting. He does have a powermatic that I have seen in other videos. http://woodgears.ca/bandsaw/build.html
  8. Where to outsource this bottle label.

    This looks like a winner. I am going to check them out.
  9. Anyone going to the sgia in florida?

    I will be there on the 23rd for sure I may work in one more day if workload permits. It's really a bummer that it is in the middle of the week many of our employees like to go on Saturday when it is here in Orlando.
  10. Where to outsource this bottle label.

    No luck with Labels2Trade but they were very helpful and I will check them out again. This label is basically a poly bag with perforations between the labels. It will stretch over a jug similar to the ones bleach come in. Does anyone have other leads?
  11. Where to outsource this bottle label.

    I have a walk in client who wants to produce several thousand of these labels but I have no idea where to look.

    I subscribe to Matthias's channel. His contraptions are absolutely amazing. I love the box joint jig and the panto router. Genius. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuFHurrWswQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDPrFJazD3Q
  13. FUJI flat bed - plexi ink peeling problem

    I could be a different series of ink or it could be the acrylic. I tend to use Optix DA whenever possible and get great adhesion with Sericol EF ink. I am using an Inca not an Acuity however. You may also want to try a adhesion promoter like ZE1000 to prep your boards. Sericol actually makes a...
  14. Whoa....................... this oughta be good.............................

    I think you will like dealing with Grimco overall. There may be some location specific issues to iron out considering its a new branch but the overall I think they are very well refined for this industry. After you get your pricing set, get a customer login and you will be able to look up all of...
  15. Streaks through the print >>> WHY???

    +1 Too much ink or not enough heat.
  16. Question for the CNC/3D guys

    You will definitely need to extend the slots by half of the diameter of the bit used to cut. Otherwise, you will need to go back with a file to make the interior cuts square. I would design everything else to be as perfect as possible and build a couple of test pieces into the file for testing...
  17. Workbench for garage

    I thought I would share some photos of a workbench I just completed for the garage. The project was cut entirely on the CNC from 2 sheets of 3/4" plywood and 1 sheet of 3/4" MDF. The edging around the work top is made of poplar. I found the plans on the internet and adapted it to CNC using...
  18. Volvo blue?

    I can confirm that it is Pantone 072
  19. Printing to HPL (high pressure laminate)

    How long are you waiting after print to route? I tried this once with Formica and thought it was a failure for the same reason. The ink peeled on the edges when routing. However, I went back to a waste piece 3 days later and the cure was fantastic and it routed well. According to our ink...
  20. Wet lamination

    Wet applying laminate was once suggested to me by my 3M rep for laminating 10' wide flex face vinyl. He mentioned a company that would wet apply 8518 with a 1/8" overlap on all of their panagraphics material. I really did not like the idea and went with a roll on liquid lam.
