  1. Disappointing when good customer doesn't pay...

    Just venting...I'm quite disappointed the last couple weeks in a good customer of mine. He's ordered quite a bit from me over the last year. At first, he would pick his orders up and pay CC. Then a couple times he needed "as many shirts as I had done" for the weekend so I would deliver on Friday...
  2. Anyone use Scaleable Press?

    Just curious if anyone uses Scaleable Press for DTG shirts? Prices seem pretty cheap. Thanks!
  3. Struggling with this logo!!!

    Don't laugh at this attempt, please. It's driving me insane. What the heck does a top of a tree look like? Trying to make a P from a tree trunk and the R part to look like a river. This might be beyond my skills. Is the top of the P too high? Something looks weird...or maybe the whole thing is...
  4. 100% high viz shirts wholesale

    Hi! Anyone know of any dealers that sell 100% cotton high viz pocket tshirts? They have to be 100% cotton for electricians. I found one place that sells them but not wholesale. Just trying to get the best bang for my customers buck and another option. Thank you...
  5. Aluminum Pole Signs, need help

    Looking to make aluminum signs 18" x 4-5' to hang on 2 sides of a square pole (like a street pole banner) -- they do not want banners. This is meant to be permanent signage, not seasonal. 1. How thick should the aluminum be? I saw one site with 3"16" (.1875) thick sign panels. Seems like...
  6. Sign gone wrong - looking for answers as to why

    I did not print or install this sign. 2 - 4'x8' sign boards screwed over the top of an existing plywood sign. This customer came to me in Spring looking for an estimate and must have found it cheaper elsewhere. This sign was installed around April-May this year. It is direct printed onto a 3mil...
  7. What kind of paint for rivets?

    I have a white trailer here with white rivets and black vinyl. What kind of paint do I use to paint a few rivets? Thank you!
  8. Shirt re-order pricing

    I'm still relatively new to apparel. Recently, I've had some orders for 100+ shirts and the customer came back and ordered a few more a couple weeks after the order was complete...quantity under 15. The larger orders had a quantity discount, should I apply that discount to the small re-orders...
  9. Fun hand made sign

    Some of you may know on the side I make hand painted wood signs. I wanted to share a pic of one I finished up yesterday as I think it turned out pretty good. I made 2 and they are temporary signs just for the weekend, sized at 5'x36" and 24"x36". I know some of you make hand painted signs so...
  10. Rant! Creative Freedom

    My anxiety is high right now over a small job. I have a customer who makes cornhole boards. I've cut dozens of stencils for her. She sends me a pic or a drawing and I tell her depending on the quantity if you give me "creative freedom" there's little to no set-up charge - usually I spend 5-7...
  11. Anyone have Corel 21 and willing to convert a file for me?

    I would much appreciate it! Designer sent a file over and doesn't have the program anymore. She basically said "too bad, so sad". I have the 2018 version and just bought it shortly before the upgrade which looks to be in March. Thanks in advance if anyone is willing to help out!
  12. Cannot open newer version file

    I'm a new Corel user and I have Corel 2018. I just received a file and tried opening it with this error: This file version is 21.0. To open the file, you must upgrade your version of the program. Then I click OK and it says Cannot open an empty document. The designer said she doesn't have...
  13. Photo Booth Wrap

    Hi I have a client looking for me to print and wrap a photo booth. The graphics are done, I just need to send to the printer and wrap the booth. Needs it finished by Friday. I have no idea what to charge for the installation part as I've never even seen one of these before. Anyone have any...
  14. 18oz banner printed and sewn hems?

    I'm in need of a printed banner - 18oz with sewn hems sized at 17x4'. My usual vendors either don't offer sewn hems for 18oz or don't offer 18oz. Thanks in advance!
  15. Padded shooting shirt vendor

    Hi - I am looking for dry fit padded trap shooting t-shirts, short sleeve. This is totally foreign to me, any help finding these would be appreciated. Sizes from M-4XL Thank you in advance!
  16. Friday giggles

    Just had 'friend' of mine who "prints t-shirt tranfers" ask me for urgent help with his ink jet printer. He can't get it to print teal, keeps coming out blue. I suggested he match the color up with the closest Pantone color then get the CMYK formulation to enter into his color mixer - start with...
  17. Artwork and sales question

    I made some cute shirts for a local bar and restaurant and then posted them on my Facebook page. The bar is selling them but now I have people asking me to buy them. My assumption is they want just the design and not the business name. Three of the designs are original and one is more or less a...
  18. Pocket shirt with right chest logo placement

    On a pocket shirt, where do I place a logo on the right chest? (HTV) Do I pretend the pocket isn't there and place it normally? I can't very well keep it in line with the pocket as it would be down way too far. Should it be above the pocket - he wants it as large as possible. On a side note, the...
  19. Pass...

    A guy came in and told me he bought a new big boat with a nice big swim deck. He asked if I could letter it in the water when he gets it as he's driving it from a few hours away to a dock about 30 minutes from me. After 2 months of asking for a picture and going back and forth with this guy...
  20. Is it OK to turn down work?

    I feel bad...I have been turning down some "crappy" type jobs or jobs that require a lot of leg work or vendor searching because I'm extremely busy. I turned down an ATV hood this morning - he wanted it done today (I laughed at him). He wanted a complete template cut that fit around curves, etc...
