ooh I'm jealous...what configuration did you get? Did ya go for the silver???

I want to be the first solvent printer to complain about the fact that all the new signs are thin film digital 3d video holograms. It takes all the skill out of the traditional way of printing signage using solvent printers. I remember when It took skill to design a sign in illustrator. Now a...

Okay I'll say it again, I'm not building a signage CNC router. I was looking to build from plans a 2x3 cnc router. I'm confident I can do this level of fabrication and electronics. I don't see that I have any lack of reality. Plenty of others have done this before. I was just asking for some...

my god this thread won't die. I have used both since the early days (illustrator 88. CorelD 3, Aldus Freehand), Corel was always more of a suite, however adobe produced the better postscript. Anyone in the print industry 20 years should remember the problems with bad postscript errors in...

I'm lucky enough to live where I print, Many mornings I'll be working in my robe. Thank god videoconferencing never really too off.

This is how it used to be. You paid a private fire station a fee each year, they put up a plaque on your house. No plaque and they would just watch it burn. I guess Fire Brigades that were late or did a bad job lost customers and went out of business just like any other company. I don't see...

That is clearly a "by the hour" motel, you need to quote your hourly rate. Judging by the bubbles that is meant to be an inflatable sign.

I wonder if it was adhesive on the side of the trailer rather than banner, would you have needed that permit?

My sympathies, up here they are just enacting laws to ban all "street" advertising, banners, A frames, the lot. It will make for a pretty city. Problem is you can't eat pretty.

oh wow, you have it bad at 27... just wait 20 years...ow.. ouch. the only thing that gets better with age is the drugs.

Oh wow, you have a problem install and you can ask for advice with one hand while you hang off the ladder with the other. Now if only my smartphone could run a RIP...

Why not give the cops in Colorado a call?

oh for the days when my email was just filled with Viagra ads. Even with spam filters I'm getting a couple a day. Some are pretty cunning. I have to read through looking for the trap. I get the feeling that one of these days I won't be able to tell the difference between my real customers and...

A good pedicure will deal with it. maybe give you 6-8 weeks of peace, plus if you take your wife with you you will get maybe a week of peace.

So I'm getting either dial up or dial down. I guess I'll have to play with scraps today.

the boards are centered. I'm thinking maybe I need to feed something with it to build up the thickness yet not thick enough to crush the Coro. The nature of this laminator is it has about 6 thickness presets. Thank you for letting me know about the slight crown. I did suspect it.

I have a Royal Soveriegn cold laminator, I'm okay with just about anything with the exception of full width (48 inch) mounting adhesive on Coroplast. there seems to be a slight gap at either end of the top rollers, this doesn't quite make an airtight seal with the adhesive and Coroplast, I'm...

ditto with most. it just sits there on the bare plywood. Hardly ever shifts. Actually its time for a rebuild, after 4 years the ply has started to warp.

I think it was my curse. I was good with numbers, but better with crayons. If it was the other way around I would be an accountant now. Signs are just one of the tools I use to make a living out of "artist". There are some days though when "artist" takes a break and its just slap the letters...

I understand the cost of this build. Getting the right design and catching as many of the issues before they happen is why I asked the question.
