  6. Anyone in here bench pressing?

    Too busy to work out at the moment but we have a decent little gym set up here at the shop. My max bench last summer (when I was also still actively doing CrossFit) was 265, max squat was 345, deadlift was 445 and OHP was 155. I haven't touched a weight in about 2 months because I've been too...
  7. Need Some Advice

    BrandsImaging, we work with very large files all day every day. Right now I have 4 files for wall murals open, all 100ppi at full size, the smallest wall is 9'x21', the largest is 12'x93'. No issues here on my Windows 7 machine whatsoever. Got a file a few weeks ago for a window perf job, PSD...
  8. Need Some Advice

    If it helps, we were considering switching our shop over to MACs for the design computers and leaving the basic office computers and the RIP computer PCs. Then we tried Windows 7 64-bit and instead just upgraded the design computers and installed Win7-64 on everything. It's as smooth as can be...
  9. What's in my wallet?

    Speaking of using your debit cards for business purchases, be super careful with this too. Most of our purchases are made on credit accounts with our vendors (net 30 accounts), but those that aren't are put on a debit card for the most part. We've had the debit account numbers be compromised at...
  10. What's in my wallet?

    You should be proud, that's a difficult accomplishment in this world. But to be the devil's advocate, credit in and of itself isn't inherently evil. It can also be a very useful tool to expand or efficiently operate a business, as long as it's used with extreme caution and isn't abused. We...
  11. I h8 wOrD

    I've been using this free website forever to convert word and ppt documents into .pdfs: http://www.pdfonline.com/premium/SessionEnd.aspx dunno if it'll help anybody but they've always come out right for us. Not sure if that helps you with what you're trying to accomplish but a .pdf is usually...
  12. Printed banner vs applying vinyl

    Your direct cost in manufacturing the banner is significantly less than cut vinyl once you factor in labor. And because it's full color, you can sell it at a bit of a premium because of it's perceived higher value. Plus, printing frees you up to do other things. We can print 10 banners in the...
  13. accuracy of the S160T

    Yeah, it's that accurate. We have the S160D, accuracy will be the same as the tangential model. We routinely run 15-20' sheets of decals with zero walk-off throughout the sheet. We've cut upwards of 60-70' long sheets before too and while it's not fun and you have to slow it down, it was...
  14. Gator Foam.. whats like it?

    Technically Gatorfoam has a wood veneer face, UltraBoard has a plastic (polystyrene if I'm not mistaken) face. The two are almost identical in what they are good for and their workability, but be aware, they are two different materials.
  15. JV3-160S on Onyx Postershop x10 with Win7

    the combo works perfectly fine.
  16. Thinking about getting a new Solvent Printer

    Not really. You're one of the lucky few that has a GS6000 that doesn't have these issues, but it's a well documented problem. So much so in fact that Epson has engineered a new media feed system to retrofit printers that are showing the symptoms (even though it really doesn't solve the problem)...
  17. Would anyone like to give a helmet painter advise? Taking Indocil in a new direction.

    Truthfully, worry about the equipment later. Learn the design end of it first, then develop the market and outsource the printing. When you know it's going to fly, then invest in the equipment to bring production in house. There are plenty of good companies out there that can wholesale you the...
  18. Trade Show Displays

    Orbus all the way.
  19. Thinking about getting a new Solvent Printer

    Wrapper, we have a JV33 as well (and a JV3 prior) and can't praise it enough. If you're familiar with Mimaki printers, you know what's up with them, they're just bulletproof and are hard to beat for the money. The epson GS6000 prints very nice, but honestly not significantly better than anything...
