We don't do many LED signs, but did one for a good customer of ours. We purchased the sign from Milliken signs in Florida. When we received it, we plugged it in to test everything, and 3 of the modules were out right from the start. So I went to get spares from the box they send with it, and...
So I was driving home from work, and right around the corner from my house I caught a glimpse out the corner of my eye and saw this sign. I turned around to make sure I saw it right, and sure enough I did. So, being a sign maker I was like, let me go offer my services thinking it was like...
I've got a customer that we are putting some signs and gemini letters up for. The problem is what we are attaching them to, I'm worried about how to mount them correctly. They are going in the gables of the building, and the customer has put up the metal roofing panels in the gable. The...
Just got a flyer from Tubelite for a knife less tape sale. I think it was a really good price $8.20 for 150 ft and $16.36 for 300 ft. Normally its like $40 for the 150 ft rolls. Just thought I'd share for those who use it. They were all out of stock so they are being drop shipped, but for...
Well, we got our new logo design from Neato, and now we are working on wrapping one of our shop vehicles. I worked up a couple quick designs, and just want some opinions on which one you like or maybe some ideas if you don't. Thanks
So we were wanting to redo our logo, and decided to go with Phillip at Sign Amigo for some help. It's always hard working on your own stuff. Below is our current logo, and a few sketches Phillip put together for something new. I just want to get some opinions on these and see what others...
We are really hopefully getting closer to purchasing a new UV printer, and have pretty much decided on CET. Now the biggest question is which one! I can see the advantages of each, but I know it seems that more people have a true flatbed over the hybrids. It sounds really tempting though for...
Has anyone used 3m's VAS software? It is very expensive, but I think the idea is great for showing customers how the mojority of people view there signage, wraps, flyers, etc. I think it could also help in getting new customers, by showing how there current designs currently do not highlight...
Is there anywhere that large companies go to when they need work done in your area? We don't do large road signs in-house, we sub them out, but how about like window perf, and smaller digitally printed things, interior signage. One of my competitors in our area does a lot of this, and they...
Well, we got the new XR-640 installed today. Didn't get to do a whole lot of printing yet, but hopefully tomorrow ill get some profiles made and get to some serious testing of this machine. From what I've seen of the printing so far, it's going to be a real work horse. Grays are incredible...
Our new printer has arrived! Hopefully they will be installing Monday or Tuesday. Can't wait to test this thing out. I'll try and post my review of it as soon as I can
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the factory plug on the bottom of a XC-540 to run an aftermarket dryer like a Digi-Dry? Has anyone ever tried it? Or even know if it would work? It would be nice for our digi-dry to turn off when the print is finished. The timer box works ok, but the...
Why do other shops do this. Of all the websites to look at, I have to find another wrap shop in our state and found one of our designs in there blog with there logo and shop information listed right on the design. I mean this is taking credit for someone else's work, right? Looking at the...
Does anyone have any nice looking templates that they use to email proofs of signage or vehicle wraps to there customers? We are looking to design one, and just wanted to get some ideas for it.
