  1. Discussion Does anyone have any experience with "THE BIG SQUEEGEE" Manual film laminator

    What I'd like to see is a modular version of the big squeegee (if it's even possible) where you could sleeve an extension to one or both sides, then maybe a disposable plastic edge molding to sleeve over the edge as needed.... because I run into so many jobs where my squeegees are 5" too big or...
  2. Discussion Does anyone have any experience with "THE BIG SQUEEGEE" Manual film laminator

    Thick (traditional) velcro strips for the regular applicator squeegees, and a thinner fabric on the "laminator" versions. I believe the thinner fabric is covering a thin plastic/rubber bead along the edge, but I don't remember for sure. I just didn't like how it performed on laminate so I...
  3. Quickbooks 2022?

    Heck, I even wrote an app in my VOIP phone software, combined with a custom Zoho app I wrote, so that customers can simply send a text message of their invoice number to my company phone, and they automatically receive a reply with their current balance and a link to pay it. The payment is...
  4. Quickbooks 2022?

    I use Gravity Forms on my website for customer registrations. This automatically transfers their contact info into Zoho CRM and Zoho Books, so I don't have to input anything manually. (this can be achieved with Gravity Forms addons or Zapier). I receive an email notification, an encrypted PDF...
  5. Quickbooks 2022?

    Yeah, same here. My CPA wasn't familiar with it, but once I provided her user access, she discovered that everything was very easy to find -- excellent reporting mechanisms, etc.
  6. Discussion Does anyone have any experience with "THE BIG SQUEEGEE" Manual film laminator

    I own half a dozen of the original Big Squeegees (PVC plastic versions). They were used very regularly for about 15 years to apply prints on ACM / coro / etc. (until I got my Rolls Roller table) Now I only use the squeegees for on-site / vertical installations (e.g. full coverage storefront)...
  7. Quickbooks 2022?

    I used QB many years ago. It was always slow and problematic. After testing out different platforms, I opted for Freshbooks because they offered integration with my preferred CC merchant account (until they did away with it several years later). I checked out Wave, Xero and others...

  9. need feedback on Colex sharpcut sxc1717

    I spoke to Gordon at Colex. He said the SXC1717 will not cut a 4x8 "blank". Anything larger than the bed size needs to have registration marks. So if you need to cut out "oversized" blanks, you have to print first. You could probably use a cheap low tack interior vinyl for easy...
  10. Illustrator FINALLY increased canvas size by 10x

    Yep. I've experienced strange issues when printing from oversized artboards, like strokes getting 10x thicker at print time, or other oddities -- so I just make sure to expand / outline / flatten everything before saving as a production file -- and, of course, double check to make sure the...
  11. ok I really want to know...

    Not business related at all, but this is as close at it gets for me --- Many years ago as a kid I was trying to perform the Karate Kid crane kick while standing on the railing of a neighbor's flatbed trailer (genius!) I got hurt, and the trailer owner who was outside playing his guitar took care...
  12. Need Help Looking for a font

    This one looks pretty good though: search for "Gotham Rounded Book – [Hero font]" on this page https://www.dafontfree.io/gotham-rounded-font-free/
  13. Need Help Looking for a font

    Not sure about the font, but I'm thinking it was done with a rotary engraver (mostly due to the rounded ends). Rotary engravers often use single line (or extremely thin) fonts on small text, so the weight of the finished text might not actually exist in an "off the shelf" font. The weight is...
  14. Stitching Corrugated plastic

    I'm sure any industrial sewing machine can handle that no problem.
  15. Opinion Wall Substrate cutter, Recommendations?

    I have several of the FSCs. They're great! You can cut .063" aluminum / 3mm ACM -- but I wouldn't attempt 6mm. That stuff is way too thick/dense for a pizza wheel cutter.
  16. Condiment LDPE squeeze bottles

    Not condiment bottles specifically, but yes on LDPE plastics. I use General Formulations 201/203 HTAP vinyl + Arlon 3420 lam (eco-sol printing), or if I'm in a pinch I'll use GF MotoMark (great stuff, but expensive). I know other folks in the forums have experience with other brand / series...
  17. Mutoh 1614

    I can confirm that solventinkjet.com was the ONLY place I could find the parts I needed, and I checked all over the country.
  18. Mutoh 1614

    I wouldn't bother with an old / used / discontinued machine. The maintenance / repair will cost more than the machine is worth (and it would probably need to be recalibrated by a Mutoh service tech after it has been moved $$$) Thankfully I haven't needed many parts, but even 5 years ago I...
  19. Mutoh 1614

    I bought mine back in 2009, and it's been a fantastic machine! The colors and print resolution are amazing (properly calibrated, including custom media profiles), and the only repairs I had to make in 12 years were a printhead and a CR motor. However, I think the 1614 is discontinued (replaced...
