  1. Question Sign Engineering and Wind Load Calcualtions

    This site used to have a free calculator and you could pay for stamped drawings, they just switched to a subscription service. I think they still have some cheap generic plans that you can use for most small signs. If you look through the resources on that site they have an excellent description...

    Hello, what are you looking to get for the Leister welder, how old is it and I am assuming you are willing to ship? Thanks, Evan
  3. Insurance - what do you recommend?

    From my experience the last couple years dealing with similar questions I would get ahold of a broker who is experienced with BOP (business owner policy) or TPP (tailored protection policy). The recommended coverage really depends a lot on who you trust, what you do most, and what risk you want...
  4. HDU primer

    Brad and others thanks again for sharing your experience, it is tremendously helpful for us with years less experience!
  5. Looking for paint recommendations for ACM / ACP

    Thanks for the info Brad! I enjoy learning from others experience when they are willing to share. I do not have a film gauge yet but plan to get one as I continue experimenting. I forgot to mention that the topcoat for my test was done as two passes per the PDS recommendation (assuming I...
  6. Looking for paint recommendations for ACM / ACP

    I agree that a 2k poly (acrylic polyurethane for those learning) is by far the best, I personally prefer Mathews, but it is often over complicated and cost prohibitive for some projects. This is especially true for shops that outsource painting. As stated in the original post I wanted to explore...
  7. Looking for paint recommendations for ACM / ACP

    An update on what I have experimented with so far: Based on a recommendation I tried some sherwin-williams "extreme bond primer" top coated with their "all surface enamel" in high gloss, I used the latex version but they also have an oil based option of the same paint. I couldn't get an...
  8. color washed on mutoh same print file? have to reprint entire truck... help!

    What version flexi? What do you do for color management? Just using "the same" file and even the same printer/ink doesn't mean much, there are many many variables including settings. If you give more details we can probably be more helpful. Just playing around and changing the color settings...
  9. Fletcher Substrate Cutter

    From talking with several reps, acm will do that unless clamped well. If you look at safety speed cuts dustfree cutter (similar setup) it has sliding stops to help keep the cut square.
  10. Fletcher Substrate Cutter

    We picked one up at an auction a couple years ago, works good for the most part but we rarely use it. If anyone is looking for one I would consider selling and going to a table-mounted version. The problem we run into isn't with the machine, its the banana shaped coro sheets, which is the most...
  11. Question Flexi Subscription can't utilize "Send email" feature!

    What build are you running? Mine still works (I use it several times per day), but I am not on the latest build I don't think, I am running Flexi design 19 sp2 Build number 3078 (subscription). Our other machine has FS12 perpetual license.
  12. Need Help Joining ACM

    Same for us, use quality material that isn't going to shrink back and/or wrap around edge. Here is one we did recently, both sections are two panels butted together.
  13. Bull Crap of the day

    I have had stuff show up on the PM preview and not print but it has always been vectors IIRC, I have also had stuff not show in the preview and then print just fine. I don't usually trust the PM preview much, especially for color previewing. Give us some better detail on workflow and file type...
  14. Bull Crap of the day

    Hmmm no idea on that one, are you bringing the bitmap straight into PM or into Flexi then rip and print?
  15. Can someone explain why this happens in Flexi?

    As others mentioned, you likely accidentally changed the assigned color. If you have not used the design editor panel before this is a good way to visualise each component and its attributes (similar to the layers panel in other software, but functions a bit differently).
  16. Thank you, Mr. Benguiat!

    An entertaining watch if you have some time.
  17. Need Help Royal Sovereign Banner Welder parts source needed

    A few things for the record, our reseller got me a contact at RS who responded to a voicemail promptly and got my parts on the way ( thanks Carl! ). If anyone else is curious the RBW-1500 and RBW1500S do in fact use different belts as the S model has 1/8" wider weld. The belts were only like...
  18. Need Help Royal Sovereign Banner Welder parts source needed

    We have a RBW-1500 and need some new sealing belts (teflon coated fiberglass). Anybody have a source for them or any vendors that stock parts? I have called RS several days in a row and left a voicemail and no response, can't say I'm surprised. I did find a belt matching the dimensions and...
