I have a client who needs 4218 18"x23" reflective parking signs on .040 aluminum or similar. They are 4/1 full color/beige with reflective text. Anyone have suggestions on a vendor that specializes in this type of signage?
I have checked with 2 local sign supply companies and the blade holder for a Gerber Envision plotter is nearly $150. This looks to be almost 2 to 3 times as much as anything I can find for Graphtec, Suma, or Roland. Is there a good source for these or am I stuck paying $150?
A client of mine does vacuforming an wants me to produce a some adhesive vinyl to apply second surface to his material before he forms it. The end result is something like a gas globe. Does anyone have any experience with this? I have a few ideas but they are all based on conjecture. We produce...
Does anyone have a recommendation for a lightweight webbing that is easy to grommet with a 13 oz banner. We are using a product from Trivantage but it is difficult to punch.
I have a client who wants to provide me with a set of GPS coordinates along with 15-20 landmarks for creation of a map similar to the one attached. Does anyone know of some software that will make this a simple task? Mac is preferred but the best option wins of course.
I have a request to install a large adhesive vinyl barricade wrap in Indiana early next week. The weather forecast is for a high of 40º F. We usually do not install anything when the temperature is lower than 60º F which is not hard to do here in Florida. I am wondering how some of the Northern...
We have a 6 panel expandable tradeshow booth to produce. It consists of an expandable display with 4 main panels and 2 end caps. Its pretty typical. The panels attach to the booth with magnets and header panels that hang on pins at the top. If you are familiar with these, you probably know what...

We are running a big job this weekend that keeps getting bigger. I am in Danger of running out of some of my light colors and / or yellow. Would anyone with an GS6000 in the Orlando Florida area be willing to trade out, sell or loan GS6000 ink this weekend if I run into problems?
Does anyone know of a blockout tyvek material for UV printing? I have a client for whom I print short term lamp post banners. They want to switch from vinyl to tyvek. Does this even exist?
Does anyone know if this exists? I have a job that will call for several rolls of non slip floor lam. I could really keep the waste down if I can find a UL rated laminate that is 60" or over.
Has anyone used this product?
Sihl 3482 Smart Universal Canvas.
It is supposed to be a matte canvas that works with both solvent and aqueous ink. I normally use Sihl Picasso in my Epson GS6000s but my client wants a matte canvas. Any recommendations or endorsements?
I have a client who wants a 48" x 30" Magnet for a mystery van. I say mystery because when I asked what type of van, she said it was an escalade. I sent her a template of an escalade a mockup of the magnet covering 2 doors and part of the windows. After receiving the template, she replied that...
I just bought a used Gerber Envision 375 for an extremely cheap price. It is in working order without software. Does anyone have suggestions on how I could drive this without making a $1000 dollar investment. I am not interested in design capabilities. I just need to cut vector files I create in...
I am still looking for a good used plotter and I have ran across these three offerings:
Graphtec FC 5100-75
(Cosmetically ugly but was in production until the company went out of business. I was able to perform a test cut and go through all the menus with no problems)

I have been looking for a used vinyl plotter for a few months. I came across a Allen Datagraph 1036 with a automatic take up reel and a computer with CassMate software in working order that is still in use. From the photos, this thing looks like its built like a tank but I can't find much info...
I am having a head replaced in my GS today (under warranty) due to the green nozzle not firing. I never noticed because my print quality out of colorburst was still good. After closely examining the lin and profiling charts, I noticed that they were not printing using green ink.
Long story...
