  1. Mimaki JV3160sp Ink Hookup

    I can't tell you how much I pay, but it's a good chunk off of retail, definitely better than any other vendor could do. But I'd guess that's also because we go through a fair amount of ink. I have no idea what kind of deal Rolf can work for you so I don't want to speak out of line. Call him up...
  2. Mimaki JV3160sp Ink Hookup

    I highly recommend calling Rolf at Resource Imaging Supply in Cincinnati. Nobody's going to give massive discounts on OEM ink unless you're buying ungodly amounts and even then it's not going to come close to third party or bulk ink. But Rolf is a good guy, he'll give very competitive pricing...
  3. Best Window Perf and Laminate

    Squeegee marks will go away once it's sat in the sun for a few days, nothing to be alarmed about, although it can look a little crummy at first. For materials, for vehicles our preference is Clear Focus 50/50. For short term jobs that you don't need to worry about lasting more than 6 months or...
  4. Counterpoint: Song lyrics that sum it up for you

    When I walk beside her I am a better man when i look to leave her I always stagger back again Once I built an ivory tower so I could worship from above when I climb down to be set free she took me in again Originally written by Gordon Peterson, recently redone by Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam) in a...
  5. Vehicle vinyl

    If you think 3M is aggressive then you'll hate Oracal for sure. 3M 180C will feel like it has no adhesive at all compared to 3951. I'd go with 3M, it works a bit different than Avery but it shouldn't take long to get used to it and once you do you'll love it I suspect.
  6. 10' x 200' Sign!?!?!

    :goodpost:
  7. 10' x 200' Sign!?!?!

    I'm assuming since he said this is going on the backside of bleachers there will not be a solid wall behind the sign, it'll be open. If that's the case, I don't think I'd trust a system like Banner Grip. A mesh banner with poclets, poles and rachets, yes, but not a regular flex face style banner...
  8. 10' x 200' Sign!?!?!

    :roflmao:
  9. jv3 - command to run an alignment?

    You need to run the print adjust again after you lowered the head height. A number of the sets of lines it prints are bidirectional calibrations. If you don't calibrate it after changing the head height, the settings will still be for the previous height. Changing the head height alters the...
  10. 10' x 200' Sign!?!?!

    The whole thing is easy. cptcorn's right, it's no different than anything else. Figure out how much the tube frame will cost to build or have built. Figure the rest of your materials. Figure your labor. And figure your markup. Voila, there's you price. Construction is easy too, you just have to...
  11. Them durn Israelians.

    Seriously one of the coolest things I've seen in a while. If that actually was sold it would make Steve Jobs hang himself in shame.
  12. Megan Fox

    hahaha. Well done sir!
  13. How much do you keep in stock?

    10-20 ink cartridges per color per printer at all times. Running out of ink in the middle of a busy day sucks. For everything else (regular day-in day out materials) we keep enough on hand to cover a month's worth of production. This way we always have enough to handle all but the biggest...
  14. print width

    You'll want to use 54" material, printing about 51-52" wide. The overlap in a wrap is not the white unprinted edges of the media. When you set up your tiles or panels in your RIP you will have to specify how much overlap you need between each panel. Everyone likes something different for...
  15. Say it ain't so, Shamu!

    ROFL. Seriously funny. Not to make light of the situation...
  16. Where can I get custom printed wind feathers?

    creative banner does a really nice job.
  17. Credit card for business

    If your identity is stolen, it's alot of work to get the money back. Credit cards just take it off the account, but you have to go through alot of paperwork and it takes alot of time to get the money put back into your account when it's a stolen debit card. Mine's been stolen 4 times in the last...
  18. Credit card for business

    Hey all. We're looking for a new credit card for the shop to make our purchases on. Right now we either pay by check or debit card (I know, I know, debit car is asking for trouble, TRUST ME I know). I'd like to find a card with no monthly spending limit, or at least one with a high one, and one...
  19. Wrap Which material might be suitable?

    It's not overkill. Just because the majority of the truck is flat doesn't mean there aren't compound curves around the doors, windows, fenders, etc.. That's where the calendered 3551 will fail. Use cast.
  20. Best vinyl/lam for a FULL vehicle color change?

    The point was, you can't get vinyl to change the color of your car for anything close to $300. I wouldn't let Maaco touch my pride and joy either. It's going to cost you at least a grand to wrap the car and do it right, probably more.
